DEAR DOCTORS,
I want to discuss and raise few point before you i hope you all will read them carefully and then take the appropriate decisions.
TOPIC :- (I) ARE DOCTORS PRACTISING TENSE FREE (II) DOES THE RISK MANAGEMENT COMPANIES PROVIDE THE PROMISED SERVICES OR SERVICES UPTO MARK (III) WHAT ARE THE RIGHTS OF DOCTORS AND DUTIES OF RISK MANAGEMENT COMPANIES.
Point no.1 :- as we all read in newspapers and hear in media that at so and so city the relatives of patient attacked the doctor and that in ------case the doctor have been penalized with ----------amounts. In past a reputed doctor published his comments that it is better to leave medical practice then inviting all the current tensions. I picked up that topic and wrote a full article on that (it can be found on my blogs medico legal expert, on facebook page also medico legal expert ) or you can even search with my name Randeep Singh Gill Advocate and you will find the blogs. In that article it have been cleared that how these days doctors are facing uncounted problems.
Medical profession is a very respected profession but the doctors need to rethink and change their working and should add few features. such as hiring services of medico legal experts like R & D Associates who provide complete risk management to its doctors.
Point no.2 : Does the risk management companies provide the promised services...??? It is upto doctors to decide. but i would take the liberty to explain little bit about this .. The meaning of risk management is to manage all risks of doctors. the risks faced by doctors are that they daily struggle with various hazards. the risks with wide spread mouths are regarding medical negligence. medical negligence falls under IPC, CRPC, PC PNDT ACT and except these there are nearly 50 laws including main laws, legislations, national acts and local acts of each state.
Doctors need their risks managed by experts who have full control over above mentioned laws. (i have been writing, posting articles, judgements and notifications from past couple of months for the doctors welfare) the considerable point is that does your risk management company have control on all these laws.?
risk management companies have no concern with your issues they sell thier policy with supression of facts false promises and then keep on praying that thier doctors may not get implicated in any case of medical negligence. You can surf the web there are 80% cases in which on medical negligence the complainant have been awarded and doctors have also been penalised either by suspension of thier licence or elsewise. THEN WAHT IS THE USE OF GETTING YOUR RISKS MANAGED BY SUCH COMPANIES.
ACTUAL RISK MANAGEMENT MEANS: That companies must be having experts having control on all the related laws. companies must post related articles, amendments, and court judgement on doctors email to make them aware of current scenario.. IF YOU ASK FROM THE DEPTH OF YOUR HEART THEN ANSWER IS THAT NONE OF YOUR RISK MANGERS DID SO BECAUSE THEY THEMSELVES HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE SAME. Most of the said companies sell thier policies and then do not show thier face till the time of renewal of policy.. Most doctors does not even know what are thier rigts after policy and if they got caught in any such negligence situation then they does not know how to contact thier company if they suceed in contacting then starts the real harassment.
Doctor lodge his grievance with the risk management companies unqualified attendants then he forward it to their area manager asking for next steps the area manager himself is a grace of God he also does not know nothing he forward to regional manager and then he forward to head office where a litter bit competent person is seated and after discussion with qualified persons they take decision in these permissions 15 days pass away and in the mean time the aggrieved doctor gets stuck upto his neck in the problem. the patients rlatives attacks the doctor, his reputation and institute and media have posed him as a villain or greedy. Question is what have the doctor gained in this . ANSWER IS DESTROYED HIS REPUTATION AND PROFESSION
WHAT ARE THE RIGHTS OF DOCTORS HAVING RISK MANAGEMENT COVER.:-
(I) the doctor have every right that his risk management company should take appropriate care of the doctor by guiding him time to time and visit the hospital and check if any negligence or loop in record. (ii) inform the doctor on latest current situations of medico legal proceedings, inform the doctor what to do and what not to do.
(iii) the company must be having full knowledge of all the notifications, court orders and knowledge about the latest rules and regulations if any new amendment or changes.
BUT THE RISK MANAGING COMPANIES DO NOTHING IN THIS REGARD

THERE ARE other various points which needs to be discussed but the article will be too much lengthy as such i leave it on doctors to decide that since they have got themselves covered with risk management covers, that how many times the companies have performed their duties for the welfare of the doctors. If you find the answer in zero then time have come to take a hard decision and get your medico legal risks covered by R & D ASSOCIATES.
R & D ASSOCIATES is a association of expert advocates having full control on the laws applicable on medical profession. The association is far far better then current companies who understand the meaning of risk mangement is only upto getting their doctors insured. if the insurance would been enough then there is no need of risk management companies.
Doctors please decide before you renew your risk management policy or before buying new policy. If your current company meets all ends then carry on with them otherwise give us a chance and feel the difference your self.
