Ayşegül Aydoğan Atakan's program 12'de Sağlık featured Istanbul Medical Chamber Board Member Dr. Emrah Kırımlı in this episode.
The program covered the confirmed appointment system, patient load in Turkey, patient examination times, Family Health Centers, and malpractice.
Highlights from Kırımlı's statements:
- People cannot access the healthcare rights they deserve.
- A physician can see at most 15-20 patients a day. Seeing an average of 100 patients a day is nothing more than excessively provoked health demand.
- Citizens are circulating inefficiently within healthcare institutions.
- It is stated that the number of outpatient clinics is increasing. Running an outpatient clinic is not the issue. To give an example, you should prevent a child from gaining weight.
- The system imposed by the Ministry of Health prevents physicians from doing their jobs in an ideal manner.
- In the current system, both the patient and the physicians are unhappy...
- When a physician is subjected to violence, no one is by their side.
- In our country, physicians are only expected to administer injections and prescribe medication.
- There is a system in the healthcare field built on requesting tests. When this happens, people turn into a battery that makes money for the healthcare industry.
WHAT IS MALPRACTICE?
Malpractice is used for the erroneous actions of a professional that occur while practicing their profession. Medical Malpractice is defined as 'a situation where a physician fails to perform current standard practices during treatment, a lack of skill, or harm that develops due to not providing the patient's treatment.'
