From Al Jazeera Indian hospital
Patientss from around the world, including from USA are flocking to Dr. Shetty's hospital in India. And they are paying patients and which are good for cash flow and financial health of his hospital. Why? There is so much publicity and they are captured in media and at internet.
Patients are attracted by low cost and so much skills gained from operating 30 patients a day. The MDs at the hospital are seen as more expert in what they are doing from sheer quantity of operations
Health care in the Western world has been expensive and unaffordable; the rest of the world is following suit. The Indian hospitals has been leading the way in socialized health care, where treatments are ridiculously low low low: $1t+ heart bypass, $10 hemodialysis,. Big pharma and hospital appetite profit is partly to blame. Who will take care of the sick, especially those who are poor?
