Medical negligence

This refers to the article, "To deal with medical negligence" (March 16). Medical negligence is a man-made calamity for both the victim and patient's family. There have been reports of medical instruments being left in the body of the patient. In some cases, hospitals hold back the body of the dead patient over unpaid bills. Nowadays, patients are fleeced in hospitals. Unnecessary medical tests result in inflated bills and God alone knows whether the results of different lab tests are manipulated or not, to further fleece patients
