We have the right to information?

Information is sellable in form of reports for business purposes.  Government introduced Right to information act to provide information useful for individual clarifications.  The reason may be a discussable or yet to thinkable area.

Right to information in India came into force on 12 October 2005.  This initiative started from the Freedom of Information Bill in Parliament, in 2002.  Citizens have the right to get information from government authority within 30 days.  Technology enhances this act and supports the government to equalize the documents.  Official Secrets Acts (1923) restricted the information disclosure before this act came into force.

RTI is governed by Central Information Commission and State Public Information Officers. Digital governance is also one of the main progresses for this system.  Application, fees in form of DD or cheque are the basic requirements. Misleading information will lead to penalty.  Jammu and Kashmir is the exemption for this act.

RTI started in Sweden (1766) then followed by Norway, US, Netherland, Australia and in 2010 more than 85 countries enjoying the gratitude.  Mexico fixed a standard example and reference for this act.

UPA government made the progressive for RTI.   Every government says error on other government policies.  This act is also not an exemption.  Practically Implementation is the problem and “Confidential” is the word used for most of the replies or answers.  Some small percentage information which is attractive only published in media.  This act needs to break the formality and come from the document grade.

New business models in Medical treatment-values or revenues?

Bringing medical specialties in one umbrella is a business model.  Organizations act as a platform provide infrastructure, marketing to bring patients and connect specialized treatment, consultations with specific doctors even in non-urban areas.  This is a different model nowadays adopted rather than hospital model.   But business, revenue alone calculated rather than values.  This business models will benefit corporate, hospital and develop new jobs.  Whether there is a doubt it may benefit people or in terms of business we call them as consumers or clients.  Each services are covered as packages, will impress the people who need of cure. 

Profits, acquiring clients are concentrated in these industry is very disturbing dilemma.  Old treatments are renewing into new brands like Ayurveda, homeopathy and Kerala treatments. 

In October 2015, India's medical tourism sector was estimated to be worth US$3 billion.  Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Delhi are top destinations for foreign visitors.  Medical tourism is a good concept and business model which targets foreign business and their cures.  But medical here concentrates on revenues rather than cure and healthy survival.

Medical shops are franchising their brands.  They have customer points for every purchase and they worried about our monthly visits.  Rates are differing for each brands. In business aspect, this is not a good economic progress for the industry business outcome only thing concentrated values, curability of diseases also to be considered towards a proper beneficial growth.
