Commercialization of Healthcare sector:Good or Bad?
Last Updated: Jan 20, 2013
Commercialization of Healthcare sector
Health Care is one crucial field where casualness or any sort of nonchalance attitude can by any chance be unaccepted. But, to the saddest part, the world we live today is poised with scars of corruption even in this sanctuary field.
Following are the problems if it is under the governmental control:.
1. Corruption (of course prominent in a country with EXPERTS).
2. Lethargic attitude towards patients.
3. Poor infrastructure and equipment.
These further end up in providing a least care for the patients.
As brought out in earlier discussion points, commercialization would lead to opening up the sector to private player, who, by virtue of their existence, would try to exploit and make the best profit out of business. But there are many other advantages that these private organizations could bring in:
1. Better infrastructure and technology.
2. Health and clean environment.
3. Better Logistics (ambulance and emergency services).
4. Better Management and effective utilization of resources (Doctors, facilities).
5. Cost effective & quality solutions due to health competition.
Commercialization of Healthcare sector , Good or Bad
Based on the locality requirement.
However, nothing comes as free and there is a considerable risk. Either the cost effectiveness may cut a hole on the quality of service or the quality service can be rendered at a higher price. This problem of money laundering can be reduced through proper Government control. The Government can implement guidelines on the standards and pricing. Also, this has to be systemically by period audit by a transparent external agency. Various NGOs and private organizations like Manipal, Aravind are currently doing well in the health care sector. With many MNC’s showing interested toward the CSI activities the controlled commercialization will certainly be a boon for our people.

Commercialization is good but for only those who have money.We can get good service,new technologies are used for treatment purpose. But all for those who can afford it.Government should take care of poor people too so that they can also get proper treatment..!!!1
Health is wealth . This is the very old proverb and in todays world it has also become an outdated concept. As no more health is the basic priority for the people. It is only the wealth and only the wealth who is more important to them. So i feel commercialisation has become very popular in case of health so that peple know more about health and physic.
Commercial of healthcare sector is very necessary.the government can implement the good health also any other process.so the healthcare commercialization is needed to bring highest quality of medicine and can take care very fatal diseases of the patients.so it is according to best health cure in the other places.
There are some good and bad immpact of Commercialization of Healthcare sector.
There are so many government hospital that has lack of doctors,and care.So it is very critical for people.
But by the commercialization of healthcare affects many people.Private hospitals charges a lot of money.So it becomes very defficults to poor peoples.According to me Government should take care about the government hospitals.
In my veiw Commercialization of helth is good because of some point
1.Commercialization of helth provide better services to the paitent because we all know the private sectore are doing there jobs for eaning money.So they have to do there best for compete with the others public sector organization.
2.It can give good behaviour to the paitent .Because we all aware about the behaviour of the govt nurse with the paitent.
Commercialization of the health sector which is not good for the mass but then again it is very helpful in the globalization process. Commercialization helps the health care sector to stay in competition and hence import new machines for surgery to rise above others. But his only leads to higher price of the surgery which very few people can afford to go under. Nowadays, there are medical zones where one can find numerous hospitals and other health sectors. But this commercialization is not for the needy but for the people who can even go to abroad and get treated. So, according to my opinion commercialization is not good for the health sector but is profitable for the owners.
From my point of view I think commercialization of HealthCare Sector can be a good move. I can prove this pratically just by Asking a simple question from you. If one of your family member is sick and you want him or her to take to a hospital, then which hospital do you prefer??? A Government Hospital or a private nursing home. Offcourse, if we don’t have the monetary or financial problem we will always prefer a Private nursing home. There are many reason behind this selection which can not be seen legally on papers. This can only be experienced by any personnel who has suffered from this situation. Many Doctors who are serving in government hospital have their own personal clinic, where they can earn more money, so he always give less time and concern to the patient he checks in government hospital. Apart from this, a hospital environment must be neat and clean, which is totally opposite to what we see in government hospitals.
Commercialization of Healthcare sector , Good or Bad…….is a big question now a days.
In our day to day life we hav seen how sampled medicine has been sold and doctors took money or bribe for treatment in government hospitals where all treatments are almost free.
Various NGOs and private organizations like Manipal, Aravind are currently doing well in the health care sector. With many MNC’s showing interested toward the CSI activities the controlled commercialization will certainly be a boon for our people.
corruption is the root cause of any country’s developement . in helth sector also ther is corruption , people take bribe, make the beds reserved for well knowns , make the price of medicine more even on those which are free of cost.
thank u in anticipation.
I have read opinions regarding commercialization of health care. First of all what is commercialization? It means private owned hospitals. Commercialization is good as in private hospitals good infrastructure, update tech. , better nursing facilities, qualified doctors are there but the thing is their expenses are high and poor people cannot afford it. Govt should take care of it, some concessions will be provide to poor people and their motive should be welfare of people not the profit oriented.
In my veiw Commercialization in helth care is good . now I am giving some point
1. We all know the public sector are doing there work for earning money so if the helth system is handeled by the public sector then they provide there best for it because of they have to compite with the others.
2.The paitent are get some relive from the govt nurse because we all know about the behaviour of the govt nurse with the patient.So if the Commercialization of the helth is done then the patients are getting good behaviour from the helth persons.
The word Commercialization is used in business field and Healthcare is not a business. But Now a days it is a business and healthcare is highly Commercialized which is not good . Because there are many poor people who can not able to get their regular meals. So, it is not possible for them to avail expensive medication. So, Commercialization of Healthcare is not good.
in my point of view commercializations a word related to the business,but hera include for health sector.that means health is business.if we spend the money than he gives the better quality,beter equipments ,best doctors and combining all this a good health which is much more important for every person.that is very important for every person.
From the my point of view Healthcare is a very importent sector where any casualness cannot be accepted.
So,I think that it should be commercialized to bring quality in the treatment of patient as well as to fulfill all the needs of the patients.There should not have any politics.
commercialization is a good move but the cost of any test or any minor operation is too much for a lower middle class family so if our govt take a small step by providing a rule to all commercial health centre that they must put a reliable cost in any test and in patient visit also and the most important thing that shoud have to take our govt that progression of govt hospital to give a healthy treatment to every patient.
According to me, I think that the commercialization of Healthcare Sector is neither good nor bad. Firstly, I think that, without money, the installation of advanced machines & advanced technologies are really impossible. But, the way today’s doctors continue the treatments of their petirnts, it seems like or better to say, they use the petients as thier machine of money, for their own livelyhood rather than for the betterment of the petients. It can also be said that, the lumps of money they get from the petients, is never used for the betterment of healthcare services. Secondly, when a petient, who is very badly wounded due to any accidents or other awful causes, who has a minor chance to be alive, i.e. he can be saved if no time are wasted, is to be admitted to any hospital, either private or public, then the petient party is asked to register the petient along with some money, otherwise no doctors touch the petient. This sometimes or better to say most of the times results in death of the petient. And this death generally happens after the money is paid & the petient is registered. Thus resulting in great disaster to the petient party. So, according to me, Commercialization of Healthcare sector should be stopped.
commercial health care is a good things.public sector may solve this.if we don’t have monetary and financial problem we will always a nursing home.
Commercialization is the word which is generally related to the business. By this process the company generally increase their profit. So in healthcare commercialization is needed to bring high quality of medicine, reputed doctors should be kept to cure difficult diseases of the patients. so it is good according to my view. It should also be checked side by side that any sort of corruption should not be occur. And for below poverty line people some concession should be kept in the heath care center, in spite of small amount of loss in sake of humanity.
From my point of view I think commercialization of HealthCare Sector can be a good move. I can prove this pratically just by Asking a simple question from you. If one of your family member is sick and you want him or her to take to a hospital, then which hospital do you prefer??? A Government Hospital or a private nursing home.

People of todays age is highly dependent on commercials these days,many are seen to blindly believe as whatever they are fed by commercials,but when it comes to healthcare commercials,we deal in lives of many people.Commercials are meant for bussiness purpose,the viewers themselves should judge by their own which healthcare sector they should opt for.
