OMSA PRESS RELEAESE 24.01.11
Dear Friends from
Electronics & Print Media, Bhubaneswar
I express my sincere thanks from the core of my heart for your
continued support to OMSA’s 35 months old movement aimed to bring about reforms
in Govt. Health sector so that young Allopathic doctors of the state love to
serve in 1700 Govt. Health Institutions, 80% of whom are in rural Orissa,
thereby people of the state 70% of whom live in rural Orissa and 47% below
poverty line (Tendulkar report) are not deprived of
basic health treatment. The basic problem of Govt. Health services in Orissa is
gross shortage of Allopathic doctors which at present may be around 2000
physically doing the duty, whereas there is a need of more than 12000
Allopathic doctors to provide adequate emergency health services to a
population of nearly 4.5 crores. Similarly, the basic
problems for young Allopathic medicos not joining or leaving shortly after
joining to Govt. Health Services is due to lack of Promotion (DACP),
Transparent Transfer Policy and Cadre rules.
Acting on the appeal and assurance to examine and implement DACP
(Dynamic Assured Career Progression with virtual promotion at the end of 4th,
9th, 13th & 20th years of continuing
service) as quickly as possible by the Hon’ble Chief
Minister of state, OMSA postponed its movement on 18th April, 2010.
On 18th December, 2009, Govt. assured OMSA to examine and implement
DACP within 3 months i.e. within 17th March, 2010. Health & FW Deptt. on 25th March, 2010 came
out with a notification to constitute a committee of ministers of Health &
FW, Finance and Law to examine various aspects of DACP and practice followed in
others states and submit its reports at an early date. Just before the deadline
of 18th April, 2010, OMSA Executives were irrationally transferred
to far off places without policy and promotion to break the moral of the
members. Unfortunately, OMSA’s demand for implementation of DACP which would
have benefitted the doctors and the people of the state was not taken in true
spirit. In the meantime DACP, which has been examined
thoroughly by panel of experts before its implementation by the Central Govt.
in November, 2010 and a host of other states of Indian Union for its Doctors
& Dental Surgeons. With a past track record of uncertain promotional
avenues, barely a single promotion in entire service career, no young
Allopathic doctor having a brilliant academic career will choose to pursue a
career in State Govt. Health Services. With this scenario,
nothing is heard about DACP till now even after a lapse of 9 months
since 18th April, 2010. Young Allopathic medicos of the state in the
meantime, choose to pursue their career in Central Services, other states and
Public Sector units where DACP has been implemented. Those who have joined to
State Govt. service recently, left for the better prospects as implementation
of DACP became uncertain.
Hon’ble Chief of the state of Orissa declared on 17th March,
2008 in the floor of the Assembly to formulate a Transparent Transfer Policy
within 2 months with inputs from OMSA, which is a far-cry now. Without formulating
a Transparent Transfer Policy, 174 doctors were transferred in April, 2010
without a promotion. Non formulation and implementation of Transparent Transfer
Policy has discouraged the young Allopathic medicos to join to Govt. Health
service as they found the plight of in-service doctors irrationally transferred
only to cater to the vested interest of few.
OMSA’s Demand to be a partner in State Health Administration,
such as occupying the post of Secretary, Special Secretary, Additional
Secretary, Joint Secretary of Health; a valid attraction for young Allopathic
medicos to pursue a career in Orissa Medical Service, has not gone down well
with persons running the show without the expertise and experience of ground
realities.
No Cadre rule to govern the OMS Cadre after it became Junior
Class 1 at entry-level, even after 20 months as notified by the Health & FW
Deptt notification no. MS II IM (Sr.) 12/08-14994 dt. 26.05.2009 “The amendment to the rules regulating
recruitment and promotion to the restructured OMS Cadre is under preparation
and shall be finalized in prescribed manner within 6 months”.
Regarding vacancies at present in different level of posts after
restructuring of OMS Cadre are Junior Class 1 – 658/1158 (Specialist), 576/1076
(Non Specialist), Senior Class 1 – 835/1440, Joint Director Level 2 – 170/452,
Joint Director Level - 50/120,
Additional Director – 4/8. Total vacancy is 1967/4258. Maximum number of DPCs
held in last 2 years is confined to only top 12 posts. The vacancies in Specialist
posts will shoot up after All-India P.G. Examination begins because in-service
candidates from the state will fail to qualify in large number due to
overburdened preoccupation of plethora of duties.
In 2012, around 900 doctors are going to retire (1978/79 PSC –
150 x 3 Medical Colleges x 3 batches = 1350 doctors) creating an alarming
situation in Health sector where the Allopathic doctor actively working
manpower has already dwindled to 2000.
In the neighbouring state of West Bengal, Dental Surgeons are
posted up to Primary Health Centre (PHC) level since long back, in Orissa only
17 Dental Surgeons posts are there in OMS Cadre to cater to a population of 4.5
crores.
In the meantime, the State President OMSA has written to the Hon’ble Chief Minister and Health Minister of the state to
have a free and frank discussion with OMSA Executives over these issues yielded
no result.
Therefore, I request you all to air all these issues through
your forum as you have done in the past for the greater interest of the people
and doctor of the state.
Yours Sincerely,
(Dr. Madhusudan Mishra)
State President,
Orissa Medical Services Association.

Respected
Sir,
From Media report it is apparent that two expelled
members of Orissa Medical Services Association (OMSA) Dr. Siba
Prasad Singh & Dr. Jitendra Ray could able to
meet you separately on OMSA demands on 08.09.2008 evening though there was only
one official appointment for OMSA office bearers. It is unfortunate. We protest such act and request you not
to honour them.
We
have full support to your effort to bring about reforms in Health Sectors as
evident from your declaration of the packages for OMS Cadre Doctors on the
floor of the Assembly on 17.03.2008. Our effort is only meant to draw your kind
attention to the inordinate delay in implementing your declaration in letter
and spirit.
Yours sincerely,
