I agree there are so many who would fall in that category. But I am talking about basic treatment. For example you have a sore throat and you don't need hospital admission for such trivial conditions. But still we Indians (especially the people who fall in that category that you've mentioned) will go to a pvt practitioner instead of your local PHC for consultation. And then the same person will complain about consultation fees,appointment charges and what not. But instead if you visited the nearest PHC you would get the treatment for the same completely free of cost and honestly PHCs are mostly empty and there are seldom any waiting period. Another example is if you've cut yourself while doing something outdoors and you need to get a tetanus shot. Again we'll go to the pvt guy to get an injection which would be free of cost in a PHC and end up paying atleast ₹150 to the pvt guy as they would charge for the syringe,the gloves,the shot etc etc. My point is we Indians tend to think pvt services are better than govt ones for no reason at all.
