"content": "The last one is the amendment which Hon. Mabongah has talked about; the fair charges. Like Hon. Pukose has said, the differences between a public and a private hospital are like day and night. Most of the times, machinery in public hospitals break down, so people do not have a choice. They have to go to a private hospital. When they go to a private hospital, the costs are prohibitive. I do not know if we can introduce an amendment at the Committee of the whole House to put a limit of between 10 and 20 per cent above the charges or the charges are printed through regulations of each and every service offered by a public, private or medical facility so that people know. The charter is there. The charges are on a board, so people know what they are supposed to be paying. Charges need to be put on a board so that somebody does not get hijacked when they reach there and they do not have that kind of money."
