Cheap Medicine vs. Expensive Medicine

Thea June 29th, 2007

Last week, due to the cough i had, i wen to a doctor. Having diganosed my malade, the doctor gave me a prescription which i had to buy in a drugstore in the same clinic. My name was called by the cashier to pay the drugs i bought. For the cough i had and the doctor fee, i must pay 360.000. Geez…it’s very expenisve just for the cough. For me it’s not realy burdensome as fortunatley my company will reimburse all medical cost i paid. I imagine what if that amount should be afforded by people who are not lucky like me. If to be healthy is such expensive, how this country can improve its people quality?

Uuughhh…i just can hope the cheap medicine launched recently by Ministry of Health may assist most of people in Indonesia. I am convinced the quality of cheap medicine is as a good as the expensive one. And one thing, as a patient i must have asked the doctor the kind of drugs and why he gave me that. In short, i must have been aware about my right as a patient. It’s the lesson-learned i get.

    OQ : Gw jadi mikir deh, kalo misal kita resign & ga kerja gimana kalo sakit. Ongkosnya mahal banget boo…
    X : Salah Q, kalo kita ga kerja, kita ga sakit2 an bow…
    OQ : (diam ingat sesuatu) iya ya, zaman dulu gw jarang sakit. Kalopun sakit paling obatnya gratisan dari dokter ke kampus. Sekarang dah pakai obat mahal, tetep aja sering sakit. Stress kali ya?!
    X : Tuhan selalu adil booo…
    OQ & X : (ketawa cekikikan)

    Iya..kalo dipikir2, sebenernya yang bikin sakit itu kita sendiri yaa? Yang makan ga sehat lah, tidur begadang, kurang minum air putih, kurang istirahat dll. Sehat itu emang bener2 mahal harganya:D
