Mungkin itu cerita lama yang anda dengar...:) Dulu memang AS tidak memprivatisasi RS pemerintah. Baru sekitar tahun 2001 mereka melakukan privatisasi, contohnya DC General Hospital di Washington.
Kalau di AS saja kondisi orang miskin jadi merana karena privatisasi, apalagi di Indonesia. Sebagai contoh, di RS Mitra Mayne International, kakak ipar saya dimintai dulu DP sebesar Rp 10 juta. Jadi mau privatisasi seluruh RS pemerintah di Indonesia? Coba baca artikel di bawah: Case Study: The Privatization and Closing of DC General Hospital- Washington, D.C.DC General Hospital was the only public hospital in Washington, DC and therefore the only hospital requiredby law to serve everyone regardless of their ability to pay. The majority (70,000) of the citys uninsuredresidents, who total 15% of the population, relied of the hospital. The hospital was the citys critical safety net. In 2001 DC General was sold to a consortium of private health care providers who were to run thehospital and six separate city clinics. The consortium leader promised a 34% increase in medical services butalso announced that all Emergency Room service and most long-term care would be eliminated. Within a year the entire hospital was closed. Closing means longer commutes in emergencies, fewer facilities tohandle the same number of patients, loss of community outreach clinics and educational programs, lack of human power and loss of training centers for nursing school and medical school. The privatization of DC General fits in with a growing trend of mergers, takeovers, facility closings, andshifting to out patient care centers in the US healthcare system. These trends are leading to staff cutting,closing of critical units, and the end of community-based health programs nation-wide. This has resulted inlost jobs and lost services, typically for those who need them most. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 2 International Gender and Trade Network http:/ /www. [EMAIL PROTECTED] are the primary healthcare providers both formally and informally. Formally through their presencein the field of nursing and allied healthcare services, and informally as mothers and caretakers. As of 2000,97.8% of the more than 2.6 million Registered Nurses in the US were women. Fifty five percent of these women have children living at home. More than 1,600 city workers lost their jobs with the closing of DCGeneral, a majority of whom are women. Women also make up 31% of the uninsured population inWashington, DC. Women are responsible not only for working and earning income when necessary but for continuing toprovide for the community management and reproductive needs of society, responsibilities which are often overlooked. Rising costs of healthcare and fewer available facilities places a greater burden on women asthey are forced to handle even more of the care themselves. With cuts in healthcare services it is womenwho must care for the sick, particularly within their own families, when other care options are taken away or become too expensive. Womens own health then becomes jeopardized through the decrease in available services and less time to tend to their own needs. In the U.S., people in poverty have significantly lower life expectancy than the wealthy. This results fromcuts in social spending and healthcare spending. Affordable, reliable healthcare is becoming hard to find. Privatization is seen as an attractive quick fix but in the long term it is both socially and economicallydestructive. Historically disadvantaged groups are carrying a majority of the burden. http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:xZPgsS3GBXgJ:www.igtn.org/pdfs/114_USprivatization.pdf+HOSPITAL+PRIVATIZATION+in+us&hl=id --- Nugroho Dewanto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > di amerika kebanyakan rumah sakit adalah milik > swasta.... > tapi kalau ada orang sakit, rumah sakit wajib > menerima > pasien tanpa pandang bulu.... > > orang yang mendapat kecelakaan di jalan biasanya > juga akan dirujuk pada rumah sakit terdekat dari > tempat > dia mendapat kecelakaan.... > > prinsipnya layani dulu, tagih bayaran belakangan.... > > maka tak heran di musim dingin rumah sakit menjadi > shelter favorit para tuna wisma.... mereka pura-pura > sakit saja: pening, sesak nafas, sakit perut, dll > supaya > dapat tempat tinggal dan makan gratis.... > > ya tapi itu kan di amerika, tempat biangnya > kapitalis > neoliberal, pro privatisasi... > > sementara kita di indonesia kan negara pancasila > yang penuh semangat gotong royong, kesetiakawanan > tinggi, bla-bla-bla.... > > salam, > > > > At 07:23 PM 7/25/05 -0700, you wrote: > >Saya kutipkan saja ya berita dari media massa.
