Medical colleges and Associated\u00a0hospitals and Govt. Dental\u00a0colleges of the state shall not indulge in private\u00a0practice henceforth&#8221;. But it is surprising that inspite of the Govt. order all the HOD\u2019S are still practicing at the cost of the health of the general public and the administrative department is keeping a blind eye to it for reasons best known to the people at the helm of affairs.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2491\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2491\" style=\"width: 505px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2491 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukesh-C.Khajuria.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"505\" height=\"924\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukesh-C.Khajuria.jpeg 505w, https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukesh-C.Khajuria-164x300.jpeg 164w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 505px) 100vw, 505px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2491\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sukesh.C.Khajuria, a senior social activist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sukesh C.Khajuria who had constantly fought vested interest in health care system said that the issue of private practice by government doctors particularly senior doctors including Head of Departments had impacted the health care adversely as common people are not getting adequate and specialised medical care. The \u00a0doctors encourage patients to get treated form them privately in their clinics and private hospitals where they work. Since either they have their own flourishing private clinics or work in private hospitals on fat salaries\/income\u00a0with reported nexus of taking the patients out of Govt. Hospitals to the private institutions.<\/p>\n<p>They get targets to fulfil in order to get their fat salaries of several lakhs per month and the common citizen suffers,\u00a0this fact has been corroborated by the report of the state health agency and the insurance company covering patients under AB-PMJAY scheme to the state Govt., to the administrative secretary health and medical education department. The List of some of the Doctors involved in mal practice has also been shared with the health and medical education dept. He further said that inspite of the Govt. spending huge amount of money on building infrastructure, procurement of machinery\/ equipment\u2019s, the common public of the state is still suffering because of lack of better healthcare facilities in Govt. Health care institutions due to the menace of private practice by the Govt. doctors and in action \/ helplessness of the Govt.<\/p>\n<p>The Jammu and Kashmir High Court in response to a PIL suggested to assess improvement in the working of medical facilities in J&amp;K had formed a committee of expert doctors headed by PGI Chandigarh director Professor Y K\u00a0Chawla in 2018 to assess improvement in medical facilities in Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n<p>The Chawla committee recommended a complete ban on private practice of doctors. The committee has suggested\u00a0number of measures for betterment of patient care services across hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the\u00a0recommendations and observations of the committee were:-<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Faculty of medical colleges who are practicing don\u2019t develop research and academics. Therefore, the private practice should be banned in principle.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>A ban on private practices should be incorporated into the college statutes and should be made an offense.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>In service doctors can be offered a golden handshake if they are unwilling to stop the private practice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Pay scale and other benefits of\u00a0faculty should be the same as PGI Chandigarh\/AIIMS Delhi. Furthermore, faculty should be given academic leave and incentives.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>In-house practice can be allowed within hospital premises after working hours and the earnings can be shared by both hospital and faculty.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Sukesh C.Khajuria said that the J&amp;K government order banning private practice by HODs and implementation of the Chawla committee recommendations in letter and spirit\u00a0shall lead to better efficiency in hospitals, better patient care and teaching in the hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the fights for Headship in most of the Departments and related court cases shall get settled and only those who are willing to serve the people &amp; contribute shall opt to become HODs. The HODs will take the work in their respective departments seriously and will also monitor the other Faculty Members, thus increasing accountability and bringing improvement in functioning of the departments.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2492\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2492\" style=\"width: 1022px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2492 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1022\" height=\"1600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder.jpeg 1022w, https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder-192x300.jpeg 192w, https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder-654x1024.jpeg 654w, https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder-768x1202.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/thenortherngazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sukeshorder-981x1536.jpeg 981w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1022px) 100vw, 1022px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A J&amp;K govt. order of 2013 banning private practice by heads of departments of government medical colleges of the state.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He further said that in the long run private practice of faculty has to be banned but to begin with the order of ban on private practice of HODs should be implemented in letter &amp; spirit and the HODs should be compensated by way of NPA or salary at par with SKIMS \/ PGI.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the nexus of taking patients from government hospital to private nursing homes and allegations of long dates for surgery in the hospitals will drastically reduce if HOD\u2019S are non- practicing.<\/p>\n<p>SukeshC.Khajuria\u00a0said that a road map should be made to first ban the private practice by HODs\u00a0of all colleges followed by a similar ban on\u00a0other faculty members of the Government medical college, after the peripheral medical colleges are fully functional and last of all the private practice of Doctors working in the other peripheral health institutions should be banned in the interest of delivery of better patient care services to the public of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Model of Himachal Pradesh where private practice of all doctors working in Govt. health institutions is banned and the Doctors are compensated by giving Good salaries including NPA. This is a very successful model which can be implemented very easily in the Union territory of J&amp;K also.
