High cost of clinical tests :
Medical expenses from doctors’ fees, blood tests, x-rays, CT scans, and MRI to urine and stool test costs are increasing drastically by the day. This makes it difficult for less privileged citizens to afford proper treatment for diabetics, heart diseases, orthopedic illnesses or even cancer. More people continue to fall chronically sick due to unhealthy food intake and extreme physical exertion. There are no free treatment facilities for these cases.
The government and NGOs, as well as the wealthy citizens, should come ahead to reduce medical costs for the poor.
