In India, a scheme for referring patients for commission has been revealed

It is a worldwide phenomenon that has eroded the trust between doctors and patients for centuries. We should not be surprised that all sorts of pseudo healers are increasingly influential. The only way to eradicate this evil is to keep patients well informed.
