No admin duties for Delhi govt hospital doctors
Advertisement
As implied in a recent statement by the Delhi government the doctors on duty in state govt hospitals will no longer be required to do extra managerial duties, or in other words manage administrative nature of work.
The set objective of relieving the doctors off their administrative duties can only be achieved by hiring dedicated workforce for the job. And the state govt is planning to do exactly that.
The state government is reported to have initiated a process to recruit a MBA-degree holder workforce to offload the doctors at Delhi government hospitals. These 29 managers and 39 assistant managers to be recruited will manage the administrative and managerial matters.
As further reported by PTI, it will be the managers’ responsibility to ensure quality treatment for patients while also attending to administrative work, a senior government official said. These managers will report to medical superintendents, the official added. At present, in addition to treating patients, doctors are also required to attend to administrative and managerial responsibilities, because of which deputy superintendents and assistant superintendents are appointed under medical superintendents, said a senior government
