Many doctors believe that the younger generation’s attraction to medicine as a career is decreasing and naturally they are concerned about this sorry trend. Medicine used to be a very high profile profession to be in and has always attracted good number of bright and intelligent students. Slowly and gradually, the numbers began to decline. Today, it has reached a stage where students are openly showing least interest in pursuing medicine as their career.“Everybody wants easy money, less hard work and also wants to get settled fast. All of these are not present in the medical line. It takes about 10 years to get over with all the medical studies. So, definitely it’s a tough line and only those who are passionate about it can go on.” i reiterate.

Healthcare is one of India’s largest sectors, in terms of revenue and employment, and one can well witness the sector to expand rapidly. With the fast growing purchasing power, Indian patients are willing to pay more to avail health care services of international standard. In the era of globalization and heightened competition, it has been observed that delivery of service is imperative for Indian healthcare providers to satisfy their indoor as well as outdoor patients. Hence, it is essential to be aware of how the patients and patient parties evaluate the health care service. Such an understanding facilitates hospital administration to enhance quality of service and satisfy patients to a great extent as well.

The ethics of performance monitoring-private sector perspectiveDavid Quek
Increasingly medical practice is coming under intense scrutiny as to what is appropriate and affordable care, including serious considerations of patient safety issues and protection. Medical professionalism must be consciously adhered to as we try and find the best health care for our patients at the best value and outcomes for our patients themselves, and also for society at large. In view of escalating health care costs, physician autonomy to practice as he or she likes or deems fit has now come under siege with more and more performance monitoring, not just for appropriateness, but also for outcomes, necessity and cost-effectiveness. Physician' vested interests must be tempered with evidence-based benefits or at least be associated with no increase in harm or incur affordability issues. Fraudulent physician malfeasance are now being uncovered via whistle-blowers, or through greater more meticulous audit of various validated performance measures, and those physicians found to have flouted these due to pecuniary self-interests, overuse of tests or procedures have been found guilty and sanctioned with heavy fines, return of reimbursements as well as imprisonment, and erasure from medical registries and the removal of license to practice.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Hey, do you know
what is medical
malpractice??
Lets’
Know
3. WHAT IS MEDICAL MALPRACTICE…?
A definition by Wikipedia says…
Medical malpractice is professional
negligence by act or omission by a health care
provider in which the treatment provided falls
below the accepted standard of practice in the
medical community and causes injury or death to
the patient, with most cases involving medical
error.
4. WHAT IS INDIAN SCENARIO…?
In India, medical malpractice is not a mistake or
negligence but a wrong intention of making
money.
Doctors are deliberately misleading and
exploiting patients by prescribing expensive
tests and operations, which are not needed in
the first place.
It is a faith that doctors play upon.
In India, people treat doctors as God but they
play quite a different role.
5.
6. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A DOCTOR AND A
PATIENT :
The practice of medicine has long been seen as a
noble one.
The doctor is looked upon as healer, guardian of
our well-being, and someone we trust with our
lives.
People trust medical practitioners, believing that
they are equipped with the knowledge and skills
to safeguard their health.
7.
8. CASES ON MEDICAL
NEGLIGENCE/MALPRACTICE
Medical Nightmare :
One such victim of alleged medical
malpractice was retired Army officer
Major Pankaj Rai who lost his wife Seema
to what he called a botched kidney
transplantation operation.
"It's not as if people can't live with dialysis.
They called us from the hospital to tell us
that a donor was available. We had her
admitted to the hospital on the doctors' advice.
We were amazed that a day prior to surgery
the doctors said we could transplant her
pancreas as well. Have you heard of such a
thing? They kept saying there's no risk.
But Seema said she wasn't prepared for this,“
Rai told.
Retd. Major Pankaj Rai
9.
10. CASES ON MEDICAL
NEGLIGENCE/MALPRACTICE(CONT.)
Class 4 boy case :
Kaushik Lodha (9) was wheeled into LG
Hospital's operation theatre on November 14
with a fractured right arm. When he woke up
groggy from general anesthesia a couple of hours
later, it was found that the doctors had
operated on and put plates and screws into his
left arm which was not fractured while the
broken right arm had not been touched.
The boy had to be operated on again to set the
mistake right and suffered unnecessary pain and
surgery due to the gross medical negligence of
the doctors.
12. OTHER ISSUES ( BASIN TEST ):
Even when the situation is not as serious as to
require hospitalization, in regular treatment too,
patients are often advised to have blood, urine and
other tests done. Doctors ask pathology lab owners
for a percentage, of about 40 to 50 per cent, in
return for referring patients to their lab. This
naturally results in the cost of the tests being raised
for the lab to be able to make a profit.
Also, Doctors often prescribe more tests than are
required. In fact, one such test is called a “basin
test”, and involves the blood sample being thrown into
the basin, with reports being given as normal,
because the doctor knows that there is nothing really
wrong with the patient.
13.
14. OTHER ISSUES ( OVERPRICED DRUGS ):
Strip of 10 tablets of Amaryl costs around Rs
125/-, and a strip of 10 tablets of the salt
„glimeperide‟ costs Rs 2/-. Both are essentially
the same thing. We pay approximately Rs 123/-
more for the brand name.
The common cold is one of the most prevalent
illnesses. The salt name of the medicine used to
tackle the common cold is cetrizine. Now, the
manufacturing, packaging, transportation costs
of this generic medicine, including a decent
margin, is Rs. 1.20 paisa for 10 tablets.
But the branded version of the same medicine,
for example Cetzine, costs over Rs 35/- for 10
tabs.
15. OTHER ISSUES :
The Medical Council of India says, “The large
gaps in health care accessibility in rural parts of
the country, the need for enhanced clinical
competence and limited opportunities for post-
graduate training are our major concerns.”
Medicines prescribed by doctors are not always
within the budget of the average person.
Some corrupt practices, patients being
overcharged, and prescribed treatment and
surgery they did not need.
Children dying of diseases such as pneumonia and
diarrhea, diseases that are easily curable if
treated with the right medicine.
16.
17. WHY ALL THIS IS HAPPENING ?
At least 6-8% of India's GDP should be allotted
to public healthcare. But it is less than 2% of our
GDP.
Healthcare is not a priority.
For the vast majority of India‟s poor and lower
middle class, medical insurance is unviable.
Less Govt. Medical Institutes and privatization.
Practice of capitation fees in private colleges
demanding more than 5 million in cash.
This is a sizeable amount which many doctors are
under pressure to recover as quickly as possible
when they qualify and begin practicing.
18. WHY DO PATIENTS GET DRUGS AT HIGH
PRICES ?
We know that the actual cost of most of the drugs
is very low. But, these are not available to patients at
low rates because :
There is no regulation on prices of drugs by the
Government. Thus the pharmaceutical companies fix
very high MRP on drugs and reap huge profits.
Doctors prescribe medicines by the brand name of a
particular drug company which encourage them with
incentives.
This creates monopoly and enables the drug company
to put a very high MRP, despite the same drug being
produced by many companies. Generally consumers
are also not aware.
19.
20. MCI…( WHICH CAN CURB IT!)
The Medical Council of India (MCI) is a
statutory body regulating medical colleges,
affiliation, new colleges, and doctors
registration.
It protect and promote the health and safety of
the public by ensuring proper standards in the
practice of medicine.
It has the power to cancel any doctor‟s license in
case of misconduct.
21. WHAT CAN BE DONE ?
Generic medicines is the answer.
Governments, corporate hospitals, Rogi Kalyan
Samitis, NGOs etc can provide medicines and
health consumables at an affordable cost and
improve medicine accessibility.
Poor people living in isolation are weak, but
together they are very strong. For e.g.
Under a scheme where the farmers pay Rs 10
per month, which the govt. matches with Rs 30
per year, farmers get the best medical care.
While the so-called rack rate for a heart
operation is Rs 1,40,000, many hospital does it
for Rs 60,000 for patients under the scheme.
22. The owner of Cadila Pharmaceuticals
Limited (CPL)
23. WHAT CAN BE DONE ? ( CONT.)
If the government can be convinced that there
are 750 million Indians who are spending Rs 150
per month just to talk on their cell phones, and if
Rs 10 can be collected from each of them, we
can have the most robust health insurance
scheme.
Also the solution is to have more government
hospitals, because at the moment the number of
government hospitals is not enough to serve the
population, and people have to either wait long
hours or come away untreated.
24.
25. INDIAN LAWS AND REGULATIONS RELATED
TO HEALTH
If you are a victim then where you can go and
what you can do to seek help…
Indian Penal Code, 1860 sections 52, 80, 81, 83,
88, 90, 91, 92 304-A, 337 and 338 contain the
law of medical malpractices in India.
You can easily file a case in your local Consumer
Disputes Redressal Commission ( or Consumer
Court ) and can appeal for justice and
compensation.
