"content": "It is common practice in private hospitals â and even these days in Government hospitals, since we came up with cost-sharing that eventually moved to full payment for services. Indeed, it is unethical for any professional to turn away somebody in need of emergency care. But what is done in hospitals and other institutions? It is to evade that ethical responsibility by placing non-professionals at the point of admission, and who demand that you pay first before you are attended to. I think we should add in this Motion that non-professionals and non-medical people who are working in health institutions must be bound by the same ethical rules of that profession. So, what happens is that it is left to the clerks to decide. So, you cannot take action against the clerk because they are applying the rules of the institutions. If you were to see a medical person, they are bound to see you."
