"A lot more family #physicians who graduate are choosing to work exclusively in hospitals, not open a family practice. Of those who do open family practices, they’re open fewer days of the year to see #patients, and they’re seeing about 15 per cent fewer patients per day. I don’t think that’s because they’re out golfing. We can talk about why that is. We’re seeing people with more chronic illnesses, sicker people."

I had an eye appointment scheduled for July 22. I just got a call to reschedule it because… reasons.

“Can I get with a different provider that day?” No. They only have a single doctor at that office.

“When can we reschedule?” October is the earliest we can get you in to see the doctor. We could put you on the wish list in case an appointment gets canceled.

The greatest healthcare system in the world.

डॉक्टरों की कमी: चंबा मेडिकल कॉलेज को एनएमसी ने जारी किया कारण बताओ नोटिस

Himachal News: नेशनल मेडिकल काउंसिल (एनएमसी) ने पंडित जवाहर लाल नेहरू मेडिकल कॉलेज, चंबा में डॉक्टरों की कमी को लेकर कारण बताओ नोटिस जारी किया है। यह नोटिस कॉलेज प्रबंधन को भेजा गया है। पिछले निरीक्षण में 40% डॉक्टरों की कमी पाई गई थी। प्रबंधन ने सरकार को सूचित कर स्टाफ भर्ती की मांग की है।

एनएमसी का आगामी निरीक्षण

एनएमसी की टीम जल्द ही चंबा मेडिकल कॉलेज का दोबारा निरीक्षण करेगी। इस दौरान डॉक्टरों और अन्य स्टाफ की उपलब्धता की जांच होगी। यदि कमी बरकरार रही, तो एनएमसी दोबारा नोटिस जारी कर सकता है। प्रबंधन और सरकार इस निरीक्षण की तैयारी में जुटे हैं।

सरकार की भर्ती में चुनौतियां

सरकार ने हाल ही में रेडियोलॉजिस्ट सहित कुछ डॉक्टरों की तैनाती के आदेश जारी किए। कई डॉक्टरों ने ज्वाइन किया, लेकिन कुछ ने स्थानांतरण रद्द करवा दिए। यह स्थिति एनएमसी के निरीक्षण में परेशानी पैदा कर सकती है। सरकार डॉक्टरों की कमी को दूर करने के लिए तेजी से काम कर रही है।

कॉलेज की तैयारी और प्रगति

कॉलेज के प्रवक्ता डॉ. मानिक सहगल ने बताया कि नोटिस के बाद महिला रोग, रेडियोलॉजी और पैथोलॉजी विभागों में कई डॉक्टरों ने ज्वाइन किया है। प्रबंधन आगामी निरीक्षण के लिए पूरी तरह तैयार है। डॉक्टरों की कमी को कम करने के लिए कॉलेज और सरकार मिलकर काम कर रहे हैं।
