Govt. Health System is destined to suffer in Odisha
Status of all categories of Doctors as on

1.3.2018
Dear friends
Recently, the State Govt. has
declared plethora of health schemes starting from providing free medicine to patients
and free dialysis for kidney patients to SAMPURNA Yojana for total control of
MMR and IMR in the state. These schemes are propagated and highlighted to show
the Govt.’s commitment to ensure effective health delivery system to the people
in the state. Moot question is despite much-hyped scheme and budgetary
allocation for health service, why the people are deprived of getting proper
treatment in the hospitals. Why health
system is still disaster in Odisha. The
disastrous situation in Hospitals is due to absence of doctors and para-medical
staff in the hospitals. Though infrastructure is available, technical
staff is not available to handle it. Though free medicine is available, no
doctor is there to prescribe medicine and treat the patients.
