Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctor-patient relationship is a crux of medical care delivery infrastructure. It is based on in egalitarian notions where power and authority is vested with physicians. However, with the changes in socio-economic and politico-legal milieu this sacred covenant is altering. This appears to be true to the Indian situation. With the inclusion of medical services within the ambit of the Consumer Protection Act, patients are now entitled to approach consumer forums for redressed of their grievances. In general, medical professionals viewed it as a threat to their professional hegemony. Consumerism, Medicine and the Law looks at the changing doctor-patient relationship in India with special reference to the Consumer Protection Act. Medical negligence is from time immemorial, but due to the recent development in consumerism and human rights the cases become very typical regarding the fixation of liability and on what grounds, even if certain parameters have fixed it is very necessary that doctors must not in any way suffer their negligence in spite of remedy under different laws. The patients of medical negligence are still suffering and they need additional protection, especially the patients of government hospitals. The paper attempts to analyses a wide range of issues relating to medical doctor-patient relationship, medical negligence, the ethical and legal aspect of doctor-patient relationship, in the therapeutic encounter and the role of Consumer Protection Act vis-à-vis doctor-patient relationship from the perspectives of doctors and the patients. A few cases of medical negligence are also highlighted to draw the attention of healthcare consumerism in India.

Book Synopsis Making the Patient-consumer by : Alex Mold
Download or read book Making the Patient-consumer written by Alex Mold and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last fifty years, British patients have been transformed into consumers. This book considers how and why the figure of the patient-consumer was brought into being, paying particular attention to the role played by patient organisations. Making the patient-consumer explores the development of patient-consumerism from the 1960s to 2010 in relation to seven key areas. Patient autonomy, representation, complaint, rights, information, voice and choice were all central to the making of the patient-consumer. These concepts were used initially by patient organisations, but by the 1990s the government had taken over as the main actor shaping ideas about patient-consumerism. This volume is the first empirical, historical account of a fundamental shift in modern British health policy and practice. The book will be of use to historians, public policy analysts and all those attempting to better understand the nature of contemporary healthcare.

Download or read book The Impact of Autonomy and Consumerism in Healthcare written by Simbiso Ranga, MD, MBA and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the origins of consumerism to the evolution or revolution associated with consumerism in healthcare, this book is a reflective depiction of the past, present, and future of healthcare as it empowers the consumer (patient). The Impact of Autonomy and Consumerism in Healthcare navigates the changing healthcare landscape, navigating some of these changes and what they mean, not only for healthcare delivery, but for providers, suppliers, and consumers. It comments on new healthcare developments, including the mushrooming urgent care centers and walk-in clinics, as well as such technological developments as patient portals in electronic medical records. The book reflects on the challenges of opening up the healthcare infrastructure to the consumer, while raising issues about cyber security, privacy, and litigation. The authors attempt to predict the future, just as many physicians reluctantly do for their patients, in a chapter aptly titled “Prognosis.” The book would not be complete without anecdotes and war stories from the authors’ experiences in the field, presenting surprises and contradictions in their practice of medicine across the USA as immigrant physicians. Hopefully these powerful stories will help untangle the healthcare juggernaut and move toward a more empowered consumer.
Book Synopsis Consumerism in Medicine by : Marie R. Haug
Download or read book Consumerism in Medicine written by Marie R. Haug and published by . This book was released on with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctors have long been regarded as figures of power by their patients. The doctor, who possesses mysterious and specialized skills, is in a position of authority over the patient -- an authority which is legitimized by the state through its restrictions on who can practise medicine. This book charts the rise of the consumerist movement in medicine. The movement is a challenge to the traditional doctor-patient role in that it questions the authority of the doctor to dispense cures and the duty of patients to accept those cures without question. The consumerist movement sees that there is a bargain being struck between patient and doctor, and that it is the right of the patient as buyer to question the claims of the doctor as seller. The authors attempt to gauge the size and strength of this movement through a national survey of health care consumers and of physicians. The causes and manifestations of the consumerist movement are reviewed, as are the reactions of doctors to it and its effect on the overall utilization of health care facilities. The book will be of immense value to those interested in changes in health care, and to professionals and administrators in health care services.

The overall picture is one of lowered expectations -- a transactional, impersonal, and institutionally-limited incarnation of the medical bedside that leaves all parties underwhelmed and overstressed.

Book Synopsis Imperfect Information and Consumer Behavior in the Health Care Sector by : Hong Liu
Download or read book Imperfect Information and Consumer Behavior in the Health Care Sector written by Hong Liu and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines two important issues of consumer behaviors, associated with imperfect information in the health care sector, consumer health information seeking and the function of patient trust that is inherent in the doctor-patient relationship. First, we examine whether consumers use health information gleaned from non-physician information sources as a substitute or a complement for health services. The results reveal that consumer health information increases the use of physician services on the average, but decrease the number of visits among low-trust patients. Moreover, better-informed consumers make significantly fewer emergency room visits. These findings imply that health care consumerism may be an effective way to control health care costs, at the margin. Second, we study how patient trust impacts the quality of health care differentially by insurance types. It is found that trust has no significant effect on the outcome for HMO patients, but improves the outcome significantly for non-HMO patients. We conclude that the efficiency gain to trust in the production of health services for the traditional doctor-patient relationship may not exist in the HMO setting.

Book Synopsis Making the Patient-consumer by : Alex Mold
Download or read book Making the Patient-consumer written by Alex Mold and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last fifty years, British patients have been made into consumers. Since the 1960s, concepts common within consumerism have found a place in health policy and practice. In a short space of time, the position of patients in Britain appears to have changed fundamentally. Until relatively recently, it was not uncommon for patients to be told little about the condition that they were suffering from or its likely outcome. That such a situation would be (almost) inconceivable today points not only to changes in the doctor-patient relationship, but also to a wider shift in the way in which patients see themselves and are seen by others. This book explores how and why such a shift took place, and why it was that these changes were framed by the concept of consumerism.
