Hi Friends, we very well known that idiom 'Health is Wealth'. Everyone wants good facilities to get well soon. But India in India more than 40% people are living below the poverty line. They can/t afford good hospital and costly treatment. IF health is commercialized no doubt we will get good facilities in cheaper price. But Poor people can't afford them. Because the people who can afford always prefer good hospitals at any cost. IF poor people will get benefit from commercialization means free medicine. Free treatment for poor people. Than it can be beneficial.

According to my opinion commercialization of health is not good for a country like India. We know that India is a developing nation and most of the people are comes under BPL line. These poor people can't afford the large price of health services. Most of the common people depends GOVT hospital for treatment.

But the condition of most the GOVT hospital is very poor. We have to improve the quality of services provided by GOVT hospitals. There by we can increases our nations income and also provide good services at cheap price to common people in our country.

In my opinion, commercialization is good for health care. It's due to in private hospital you will get more facility rather than government hospital. Now I am talking about what Indian government did on the field of a government hospital. They have done tremendous work to improve the facility of government hospital but as I know India is the 2nd largest country according to the population. So whatever government is doing that is not fruitful to us. So if commercialization is not happened then rich as well as poor family will face many problems in healthcare.

According to me the private hospital sector does more commercialization compared to government sector government trying hard to maintain the quality but still it's impossible according to me there should be a union or bonding should be made from government side so that there should be no misguiding or no profit can me made more this lead to lowering of corruption and mass load on a single branch there should be a collateral and support thinking should be made between 2 sectors this would lead to increase the quality and decrease in medically unstable ratio.

Good Morning Friends,

According to me, Commercialization of health care is increased in this generation because commercial society is developed in many hospitals and health care. And also is it developed health care for common peoples in government hospitals also. Commercialization has also increased the facility to health care awareness about the people. Common facilities and also rare instruments also use and increase government hospitals. So commercialization is developed the health care for the common people.

Thanking You.

I think commercialization is good since as we all know it provides better facilities, etc etc. Yes we all know they charge high for their services and poor people cannot afford it but why to deprive rich and middle class than can afford these facilities. If poor people cannot afford that doesn't mean we should stop developing our country. For poor people govt should develop their hospitals to provide better amenities and govt should keep a check on privately owned hospitals as well as govt so that no corruption takes place.

Hi.

In my point of view, commercialization is not good for us. We know the infrastructure of government hospital is not well and in private hospital, there is available everything but common people can't afford expenses of this hospital. Generally, I look manly doctor of gov. Hospital opens his own clinic for earn more money. Somewhere doctor and pharmacy both are connected to each other plays game with people. Innocent people are making fool. This all things are the part of commercialization. No one thinks about patient.

Hello Everyone,

In my point of view considering India, Disease is not caused by germs rather many factors play very important role like education, gender, poverty, living condition, water, sanitation, hygiene, accessibility of health care facility, availability of health care facility, quality human resource etc. So making commercialization of health care not solve problem of health of people. Many disparity we can seen rural and urban difference, religion, caste so first we should look basic socio-economic problem.

Commercialization of health care either her good or bad. The coin has two sides of positive and negative. If we urgency any accident or any reason, also require quick and timely. So Commercial health care provides better than the government Hospital. But government improve the technology, provide good service so, definitely not required to commercial health.

I conclude that it is required both, if any urgency when we do not reach in any government hospital, we required to go private hospital near the location.

Commercialisation means that the main motive is profit, we should not be surprised when we are asked to pay hefty private hospital bills. Rather, the question that should be asked is what about the that section of population which cannot afford to pay such huge amount. For them, commercialisation is of no use. They are dependent on the government hospitals but unfortunately these cannot provide the desired services and which are responsible for the reason why commercialisation of health care has come up.
