JAMA justifies need for “Medical Virtualist” the new generation specialist
India needs to ponder
Is there a need?
What is the right approach?
When and how?
1. How did Hospital administration came into being?—medicine no longer was DR: patient relationship alone. It was delivered in a complicated environment in a matrix organization with all specialists and unqualified workers.
2. How did Critical care emerge as a speciality?
3. Even as these specializations have emerged justifying patient care needs has become complicated more than ever.
4. A specialist and sub-specialization is no longer sufficient to justify care provision with the depth of their knowledge. Patient care provision and medicine as a science is to justify LIFE IN ITS TOTALITY. There are Conflicts which need to be transcended.
