This is an organised crime boldly instituted by vampires. This is cruelty! The President must step in fast and totally abolish that evil medical regime.
Pay-to-jump-the-queue? Really? What happened to triage? The most corrupt criminals in Ghana are not in prison.
You see the Korle Bu buildings in delapidated states. All that the specialists and management do is to use the facilities for private work. When the equipment breakdown they have no money to service them or replace them with ...

The UK system is just not what to compare with. Do doctors in the UK pay hefty amounts of money for their training?
Is there any other services to which this long thesis cannot be applied? You go explain taya. We know what it is.
There is private practice and services and there is the public ones. We are not confused.
Let's be honest. No private hospital can pay a specialist fulltime in Ghana. They treasure their govt salaries paaa that's why they won't resign.
The risks of loosing the specialist to private sector is zero so KORLE BU s ...

Why don't these doctors go set up their own private practice for specialized care instead of using state resources to ebrich themselves
The Ghanaian doctor wants to win both ways. He spends very little of his own resources or family resources to medical school. Gets public money for advanced training then decided to use the public system he works into make su ...

It will not matter. The nurses/employees will steal and use corrupt means to bankrupt the system. And they wonder why no one wants to create jobs to employ them. You will be a fool to trust the average Ghanaian. Expecially, ...

Why should we accept this kind of jumping over the queue in our health care system? Why should money determine who will receive treatment first? What kind of country are we building for the future generation if after paying i ...

Plain & simple. Using government resources to enrich themselves. That is the strategy of the elite in Ghana. It is done in all government facilities, while they continue to amass more & more wealth.
This is bad practice by KoleBu as major hospital in Ghana and who created this bogus practice to extort money from poor patients does the creator wants sick people to die because they can’t afford to pay healthcare cost thi ...

Just a tip of the iceberg. Scrutise all other directors in charge of finances within the civil service. There you’ll realise the monetary havoc. Hmm
