It should not be written in the constitution, it should also be implemented
What you should know
It is mentioned in the constitution that no Nepalese citizen should be pressed for universal treatment, but it is not seen in practice. The government does not speak about this, nor is there any monitoring.
Whatever happened. There is a health minister, there is a health ministry, there are working staff but they have never been able to work for public interest. They use sweet words when they speak in the media but they don't make policy.
The current problem is that it is not easy to get treatment in government hospitals, it is not possible to get treatment in private hospitals and how can citizens get affordable treatment? It should not be written in the constitution, it should also be implemented.
If a patient has to undergo an operation in a government hospital, they give 6 months. Let's think about the condition of that patient for 6 months! Another sad thing is that if the same patient is reached, the operation is done immediately. When will such government hospitals, which depend on access, be made for common people?
Some local levels have opened city hospitals for treatment. There is relief to some extent but no cure as such. Queuing for tickets starts at 3 am. The doctor does not want to see the patient well, the pressure is so high and how to get good treatment? Another problem is that some hospitals within the municipality have contracts with the municipality for health treatment. But they take the money from the citizens. Who will monitor it? In this way, citizens cannot be cheated in the name of treatment.
