00:00Often when we go to the doctor, he tells us to get a blood test or urine test so that we know about your disease.
00:09So let's talk to a person who runs this kind of laboratory where blood and urine are tested, which we call a pathology lab.
00:19Dr. Anil Pichad is with us. Tell Dr. Pichad, what was your experience of running a laboratory?
00:27When I opened the center, I stayed there for 2-3 months.
00:31No patient used to come. Then I understood that opening the center does not help.
00:35You have to go and meet everyone.
00:37Everyone means who?
00:38All the doctors. Patients are coming from there.
00:40So they ask in front of me, what can you do for me?
00:44So they actually ask for a commission from you.
00:47Yes, they ask for a commission.
00:49So what percentage do they ask for?
00:5140-50 percent.
00:5240-50?
00:53Yes.
00:54Say it again, I can't believe it.
00:5540-50 percent of the cost.
00:57You don't have to do anything.
00:58I don't have to do anything. They write it down for me.
01:01They write it down for you.
01:02So how much does it affect the poor?
01:0550 percent is the rate. So you can take 50 percent.
01:09So you are giving double of what you have to give.
01:12You are giving double.
01:13A lot of doctors and patients need 1, 2 or 3 tests.
01:18They get 12-15 tests done. Is this right?
01:21Yes, this is right.
01:22I was also told once that a doctor said,
01:24we will give you 10 tests and you can give normal reports.
01:26I have also heard about this.
01:28Someone told me that there is a test called Besan test.
01:32Yes.
01:33So I asked, what does Besan test mean?
01:35It means, take the patient's blood and throw it in the Besan.
01:38Take the patient's blood and throw it in the Besan.
01:42Give all the results normal.
01:45Because I know that my patient has no problem.
01:48I am sending it for no reason.
01:49Am I right about this?
01:50Yes, you are right.
01:51Did you practice well?
01:52Yes, I practiced well. I made a lot of friends.
01:54Yes.
01:55I made a lot of friends.
01:57All the doctors became your friends.
01:58Yes, they became my friends.
01:59What happened after that?
02:00After that, I had a personal tragedy.
02:02Okay.
02:03Since childhood, we are taught that if you commit a sin, you will be punished.
02:07You have to do everything here.
02:09So one day I decided that I will stop all this.
02:12God will see what happens.
02:14And then I stopped it.
02:16Gradually, my friends became less.
02:18My referrals became less.
02:19No, they stopped.
02:20Earlier, my patients used to take the reports.
02:23Everyone used to accept it.
02:24Today, my lab report is thrown in the garbage bin.
02:28It used to be like that.
02:30Then my patients used to fight a lot.
02:32We used to explain to them that my machinery is the same.
02:35My reagents are the same.
02:36My technicians are the same.
02:37My pathologist is the same.
02:38Nothing has changed.
02:40Only one thing has changed.
02:41Earlier, I used to take 100-150 rupees.
02:43Today, I do CBC for 50 rupees.
02:45Because you don't have to give commission to anyone else.
02:47It is going directly to the patients.
02:49It is going to the patients.
02:50Then mouth-to-mouth publicity happens.
02:52I have displayed a lot of boards outside.
02:54No lab displays its rates.
02:56You also said on the board that I don't give a cut.
02:59I have written on my reception, on my pamphlets,
03:01that no one is given a commission here.
03:03Wow.
03:07Now your practice is going well.
03:09People are trusting you.
03:10And they are coming to you.
03:11Where do you get your lab tested?
03:13In Santa Cruz East.
03:14In Santa Cruz East.
03:15So your testing lab is very close to my house.
03:18And I would like to take your number.
03:20So that all my testing is in your lab.
03:28Friends, we have come to know that
03:30taking and giving commission is not only done with testing and laboratories.
03:35But when a doctor sends a patient to another doctor,
03:39even then a lot of doctors take commission or cuts.
03:43Friends, now we will connect with Dr. Amol Pandit through 3G link.
03:47Who will tell us about this.
03:48Dr. Amol Pandit practices in Wales, England.
03:51And is trained for a special type of cancer surgery.
03:54Which very few doctors are able to do.
03:58Hi Dr. Amol, how are you?
03:59Very well, thank you. How are you doing?
04:01Thank you so much for joining us.
04:02Tell me that you studied abroad.
04:04After that you decided to come to India.
04:07So what was your experience after coming here?
04:09After coming there, I was very disappointed in the first few days.
04:13When I went to meet my colleague,
04:15the doctor who was studying with me.
04:17When I told him that I have come and I want to do this type of surgery here.
04:22And if you have a patient, then please refer.
04:25So he said that we will not be able to refer until you give us the percentage of the fee you will charge.
04:33So how much percentage did these doctors ask from you?
04:36They used to ask for 30 to 50%.
04:39This is a very shocking thing.
04:41And what was your experience in big hospitals?
04:44In big hospitals, they had only one objective.
04:48That you tell the patient about his disease in such a way that he becomes so scared
04:54that he is not able to think and his thinking changes.
04:58Before that, you operate on him so that he gets the revenue as soon as possible.
05:03So you fulfilled the demands of these big hospitals.
05:06And the doctors who were asking for a cut from you, did you give them a percentage?
05:10No, I didn't. That's why I had to come back.
05:12You went back and a good doctor in India became less.
05:16Thank you very much Dr. Amol for talking to us.
05:18Thank you so much.
05:19Thank you very much.
05:21Friends, getting an operation done for a lot of people can end their life savings.
05:28Sometimes it affects the school fees.
05:31Sometimes you have to mortgage the house.
05:33Sometimes you have to sell the land.
05:35In such a situation, if 30%, 40%, sometimes 50% of the expenses go to the commission instead of the operation,
05:42then this is a very sad thing.
05:44And think about what your emotions will be,
05:48if after getting such an operation done, you come to know
05:52that you didn't need this operation.
