کراچی کے ايک نجی اسپتال نے فخرعالم کے کسی جاننے والے کرونا کے مريض کا تيرہ دن میں سترہ لاکھ روپے بل بناڈالا۔

فخرعالم نے ٹوئٹر پر اسپتال کا بل شيئر کرتے ہوئے حکمرانوں سے ہاتھ جوڑ کر اپيل کی کہ خدارا نجی شعبے کو بھی لگام ديں ۔

سماء سے گفتگو میں گلوکار کا کہنا تھا کہ مریض کے اہل خانہ نے مجھے بتايا ڈاکٹرآتے تھے وارڈ ميں ہرتمام مريضوں کو ايک ہہ مخصوص سوٹ پہن کرچيک کرتےتھے تو پھر اِتنے پی پی ای سوٹس، ماسک کيسے چارج ہوگئے وہ بھی عام قیمت سے کہيں زيادہ۔

انہوں نے کہا کہ آپ دس یا بیس فیصد اوپر لے ليں ليکن تيس تيس چاليس چاليس فیصد لیا جارہا ہے، مجھے نہيں پتہ غريبوں کا کيا بنے گا۔

سترہ لاکھ کے بل ميں مريض کے کپڑے اور جوتے رکھنے والی تھيلے کے پيسے بھی الگ سے چارج کيے گئے۔

انہوں نے کہا کہ ماناکہ يہ پرائيوٹ ادارہ ہے ليکن کوئی توقانون سازی ہونی چاہيئے، يہ ہيلتھ کميشن ميں جاناچاہيئے، پارليمنٹ ميں جاناچاہيئے۔

فخرعالم نے خدشہ ظاہر کيا کہ جس رفتار سے کرونا کے مريضوں کی تعدادبڑھ رہی ہے، اگرنجی اسپتالوں کو لگام نہ دی گئی تو غريب .
کااللہ ہی حافظ ہے

Agha Khan hospital must be regulated by government , they charge too much , and they don't pay any taxes registered as charity hospital.

They only give concession to aghakhanis or very few other people , they don't have any standard criteria for charity don't show any rules to patient insist that rules are secret for charity selection.

Government should take strict action against this hospital and regulate their prices. Also regulate and standardize their charity/concessions it must not be biased to one community or register them as commercial hospital and charge them heavy taxes.

May I remind ...this Hospital was given free land, tax immunity, sales tax immunity, Customs and import tax immunity SINCE 1983!! It is run well and truly as a branch of Serena Hotels ( complete with a seven star suite). It is owned by same company which owns HBL. It is a tect book example of charity scam. The land and all these perks were ostensibly to establish a medical college and an affiliated hospital....the hospital has been a full for profit corporation complete with financial targets and finance directors and incentives.....THIS IS THE FACE OF MEDICAL MAFIA.

bed charge: 80K
professional fee: 320K
but surgical supplies: 730K???

Looks like someone in billing goofed up... surprising that this was not challenged.
have agakhani friends, per them they don't get discounts... (or may be they were lying ?)

The "Admitting Doctor' would get recorded, bringing in this much revenue!! As a foreign based consultant and having insider information...I can assure you the billing is a scam and patient has been hood winked by misdeclaration. For the past few years, I have been searching for a lawyer to file a case in High Court to uncover the atrocious malignant nature of this cartel. The hospital's land MUST be be reclaimed back by the government. The city deseprately needs a hospital which caters to the people and is not a fancy, treatment centre which robs the people and government. The readers must know that the Hospital is NOT paying a single penny of ANY tax to the government..they don't even need to pay customs duty on their medical equipment.

And realistically the patient DID NOT actually need ICU at all. She was never ventilated on ventilator( in which case not a single person has survived). The patient only was given oxygen by mask !!!! This is beyond criminal and it is a routine. Like I have said earlier, I have been trying to find a like minded lawyer for few years to take them to court and media.

The myth about being kind to people of their own cult is also an urban legend. They don't care with religion, it is money that matters for them....money extracted on free land, tax adjusted donations, zero customs and import duty. I could run a hospital if I was given those exceptional and exclusive rights!! Anyone can run based on that model .

AGHA KHAN HOSPITAL is a private business built on state's land with several tax protections as illegitimately protected under TRUST bracket


similarly


SHAUKAT KHANUM HOSPITAL is a private business built on state's land with several tax protections as illegitimately protected under TRUST bracket


both charge huge prices for their services and does offer free treatment to few hundred annually as a face saving gesture



I still remember how
SKCMH looted Lahoris during 1st Dengue Outbreak and charged very high price for a Fkin simple CBC Blood Test. When identified, the Crackhead appeared on Tv and defended the shameless charges claiming "its a private business" when it is not!

And that is why I wanted to please in the court. Their premise of existence ( on the original presidential order by Zia Ul haq) is completely opposite of how they are performing. It has led to toxicity in health care by virtue of rigging and upping the health care market. I coudln't care less if they were charging 100 times more. but the fact remains that teh land and perks were granted STRICTLY for charity and non-profit nature. An entity cannot claim charity status with a CEO/President driving around in a bulllet proof SUV and having Golf Course memberships. The land ought to be confiscated back by the state.

HEALTH is not the only Mafia in country that is hiding behind the Trust Umbrella.


EDUCATION (private - schools, colleges, universities) is another Mafia that hides behind TRUST brackets and makes billions by looting the masses of this country.


Not surprisingly, both have many x Military Men of all rank and power as "employees" ?
