How to heal

a sick healthcare system from the ministry of health of the government of the day.

1: What's wrong with healthcare today?

2: Remember your lastest visit to your doctor(s)?

3:Poorly organised patients + rushed doctors = badly performed consultation/misdiagnosis/prognosis = poor medical care.

4: How can we improve this ?

THE PARADIGM THAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED


What is a paradigm, and how does it change ?

A paradigm is the most basic understanding on which new knowledge is generated.

As an example, the earlier understanding was that the Earth was flat.

The new understanding is that Earth is round.

The roundness of the earth is the basic paradigm to the design of all maps, globes, recognition of stars in the sky, and calculations for space travel.

Thus, the earlier paradigm for holding the Earth to be flat was inaccurate.

It is the correct understanding of the Earth as a sphere that has made advancement in many fields of science possible.

This change in paradigm is basic to our progress in many fields of science of humanity.

The shift in that paradigm and the transformation it brought about did not occur easily. many in the the mainstream practices based on old inaccurate paradigm will fight or proverbially 'kill' the promoters of new paradigm shift.

Adoption of a fundamentally significant new paradigm in the science of human medicine is more difficult, even if the outcome is highly desirable and desperately needed by society.
