in #ico6 years ago

INTRODUCTION
The Medical sphere is referred to as one of the oldest known civilization to man. While some believes this invention to date as far back as the 5th century when the Hippocratic Oath upon which the very basis of medical ethics was formed, there are others who subscribes to the Idea that the study and in practice of medicine dates back to 3000 B.C. As the science and practice of the diagnosis, proffering a solution and the prevention of any disease or ailment, this filed of study has being evolved over time to maintain and restore health as it comprises of a wide range of health care practices which are being constantly improved upon to whatever extent at which science and technology permits.

The State of the Medical Sphere Today.

As a result of a number of challenges such as an inadequate supply of seasoned practitioners and medical personnels, insurance policies, influx of ersatz drugs and an inability of patience to make a detailed assessment of these practitioners even before employing their services thus the medical industry finds its difficult to make do with the problem of performing a real-time and satisfactory service concurrently. These setbacks could be further highlighted below.

  • Limited Supply of Professional and seasoned Medical Personnels and Tools

This often bears the fruit of a grave consequence as an under-skilled medical practitioner (Doctors and Pharmacists alike) could lead to a heightened number of mortality rate since they do not have the skill to properly diagnose and prescribe a suitable drug in most cases. This becomes even worse when not they are exposed to sub-standard medical equipments and tools.

  • Influx of Fake Drugs

Just like the afore listed condition, any sub-standard product in the medical industry is always consequential since this services has to do with the health of individuals. There exist presently no known means to checkmate the supply chain of such counterfeit drugs and as such these drugs are feed into the market mostly through companies and pharmacies that are engaged in wholesale pharmaceutical products.

  • Over-hiked Goods and Services

As mentioned above, there exist no regulatory body that checkmates the supply of medical and pharmaceutical products and services and as such these services are being rendered at an exorbitant price with patients having little to no say on this.

  • Freedom of Choice
    As a result of the inability to gain access to a pool of doctors and medical centers with their respective resumes, patients are deprived of the freedom of choice to select a specific doctor based on his qualifications or a particular medical center on the basis of their expertise or just for the sole reason of personal preference. Hence this serves as a deterrent to patients who intend to receive the best service they can find on the market. In most cases these limitations are being brought about by the Insurance companies.

  • Fraudulent Medical Practitioners
    The Insurance Companies on the other hand are not to be left out as they are poised with their own share of challenges mostly in the form of corrupt medical centers, doctors and pharmacists who tend to falsify their records so as to make room for erroneous insurance cases so to extort money from any insurance company that insures them.

Pharmacies: As the supply chain of the drugs being distributed directly to patients medical centers it is paramount that every pharmaceutical network ensures the distribution of high quality, authentic and in-demand products at a very reasonable price.

Pharmaceutical wholesalers: These are the middlemen involved in the drug supply chain and in most cases they determine the retail price of the drugs being supplied into the market.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers: Drug manufacturers conduct a series of tests, researches and explorations in order to come up with an efficacious product hence a counterfeit of such a drug getting into the market and competing for recognition with such a drug becomes an issue to these drug manufacturers ass all the work being done would be enjoyed by an uncultured set of people.
