Rubbish..
I'm saying this at the risk of being critiscised, because i'm a doctor working in the accident n emergency of a Teaching Hospital.
Its a political statement......he knows the mess on ground but because he's now a political appointee, he's playing to the gallery.
He should do his part first.......how ?
By making primary health care centres functional all over the country.....and telling Booohari to ask state governors to pay their docs well, so as to utilise state hospitals.
You see, tertiary hospital staff are overworked because EVERY SICK PATIENT comes there.....it shouldn't be the case, if other health centres were working.
In the past, its only REFERRED cases that come to Teaching Hospital.....after others have tried to treat but failed.
Now, malaria, typhoid, diarrhea, headache et al all come here.

He said poor people need care without paying....and that patients should vacate emergency ward to make space for others.
To move to the ward, u must pay admission deposit......because u said they are poor, they won't pay....so they remain there blocking space for others.
Or should we also move them to the ward without paying deposit ? ok, no wahala.

How do you determine a poor person ? will u search him ? every every will claim poor.....how will the hospital be run without money ?

Its sad to deny people treatment because of poverty.....but its a cruel world.
you don't get justice if u don't have money.....u can't get a good lawyer
you couldn't get ur money from the bank after 4pm even if u are dying [ before ATM came ]
there's no free lunch anywhere. Healthcare is NOT free in europe and america.....quote me anywhere.

Tell your boss Buhari to invest in healthcare.....where is all the abacha loot money they returned ? Look at the 2016 budget.....health is about 13th on the list.

“We cannot continue to turn poor patients away from the hospitals. The poverty indicator shows that 60 to 70 percent of Nigerians is poor.

He lamented poor funding of the health care, saying there was chronic underfunding of the sector

hemartins:
Really? Would that be implemented in Nigeria?

Most accident victims are left unattended to in general hospitals until there is a claim on them.

If you don't have money to buy blood, you won't be given blood and you would probably die of shortage of blood.


You need an emergency operation but no money to pay at least half of the bill, OYO is your case.


Nigerians are funny too. After treatment, they would sneak out of the health facility.


This would be a good improvement on the health sector if life is considered before wealth.

That mtn guy above is a Scam.

Honey, this is daddy. Is mommy near the phone?” a voice on the other end answered

“No daddy, she is upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul.” The little girl quipped.

“After a brief pause daddy says “but honey you haven’t got an uncle Paul!”

“Oh yes I do, and he is upstairs in the room with mommy right now.”

Brief pause “uh okay then, this is what I want you to do: “Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs, knock on the bedroom door, and shout to mommy that daddy’s car has just arrived at the gate.”"Ok daddy just a minute…”

A while later the little girl comes back to the phone, “do
“Well, mommy got scared and jumped out of the bed naked, ran round the room screaming, tripped over, and knocked her head on the staircase, now she is not moving at all.” u jst made my day

“What about Uncle Paul?” asked Dad.”He jumped out the window into the swimming pool, but I guess he didn’t know you emptied the water last week. He hit the bottom and I think he’s dead.”

Really long pause this time… Daddy says, “swimming pool, but we don’t have a swimming pool? Is this 486-5731?”

“No, this is. 486-5713.”

Sorry, wrong number….

Mtcheeew, you were making sense until you got to your last paragraph. Very blind and ignorant comparisons. Is health the same as lunch? Is lunch an emergency. In many eatries, don't you get served before you pay?

Where did he mention that healthcare is free anywhere in the world? Read all over again and open your eyes this time; is he talking about free healthcare or treatment of emergencies before enforcing payments?

In Europe and America, don't they treat emergency cases before enforcing payments? Do they leave women in labour or critically injured accident victims to die due to lack of money at that time?

Doctors like you should be ...

dominique:
Let's hope the hospitals implement this

ozodigboo:

Who's this clown ? i knew one re.tard will come to quote me.
In europe and America, they can treat anyhow before u pay because EVERYONE HAS A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER....u can't run....you will be traced.
Here, after treatment, the person runs....no trace....if everyone starts running, how will the hospital run itself ?
Read the post of ROTADECO27 at 5.59pm on this thread...
Being educated also implies not commenting on something you know next to nothing about. Don't quote me again.

All public hospitals has to abide by this and stop turning patients away

If you don't have what someone came to buy won't you ask the person to go? You want health workers to use their blood to replace all the facilities for treating people. A beg quick train your children make them go work for hospitals

I'm talking about emergency cases as stated on the topic. A doctor once nareated how some accident victims were rushed to the government hospital he where works and none of the hospital personnel touched them (victims) because they were not paid for. As a result a lady died. How would you feel if someone close to you was refused basic first aid in an emergency situation because of money?
