i would say "death trap" is too strong a term but pathetic from the ethical point of view sits well here. doctors over-prescribe, ask for a zillion tests which might not be relevant to the symptoms. patients get fleeced as hospital rooms are as competitive as 5 star hotels in terms of per day tarrifs. this new breed of hospitals are as corporate as corporate can be with revenue targets in place & patients being treated as accounts.

Yes, they are becoming death traps. They are more interested in profit making and have no ethics at all. They are making money on the deadbodies.

Corporate hospitals are good at service thats why they are existing today, but the cost of their service is so high that for a common man its like a death trap. There are people come form far off places for the treatment but the cost of the treatment is so high that they have to take loans from either a bank or from a financier, which is just a death trap for his whole life. Neither he can satisfy his basic needs nor he can repay the total amount. For some it doesnt matter but for most it does matter. Specially heart surgeries and transplantation are most expensive for any common man, think of a daily labor and poor farmers. Emotionally they take loan and get into this death trap for life long.....

with all the shortcomings ,i think the coming of corporate hospitals have changed the concept of medical care and ultimately govt hospitals /public sector hospitals have to follow and improve their approach in providing health care.

Agreed they are death traps for common man, they are costlier but it’s also fact that they are good when matter comes of service and what the person needs when he/she gets mentally and physically weak.

The civil hospitals are in such conditions that relatives of the diseased will also get ill or infected.

It’s better to pay higher than to get rotten; we can tell those death traps after our civil hospitals get improved.
