1. Will fewer Indonesian students be attracted to medicine as a career?
I think for now, most of Indonesian students will be attracted to medicine as a
career because a doctors profession is one of the profession that is famous and
many people have interested in this profession. There are many people that
interested to be a doctor because now there are many disease everywhere, all
over the world. So being a doctor is one of the profession that promising to
have a good life. But maybe someday if the technology is more modern and
more sophisticated, fewer Indonesian students that will be attracted to
medicine as a career. Because if the technology getting more modern and
sophisticated, maybe doctors profession will be not that important because
sick people can use the technology to make them better and they dont need
doctor anymore to make them healthy.
2. Will quality of medical students be lower?
It depends on the university that teach the students, because if the university
have a bad quality in teaching their students, it makes the students cant be a
good doctor and the quality of future doctor can be bad and lower from time to
time. But beside the quality of the university, the study behaviour of students
also influence their quality. So if the students have a bad study behaviour it
can makes the quality of them be lower.
3. Will most physicians work as employees for private care corporations on
a salary basis?
I think it depends on the reason and the purpose of physicians to do their job.
If the physicians wants to be a doctor only for money maybe they can work as
employees for private care corporations on a salary basis, but if the physicians
wants to be a doctor because they want to help people and make them to get a
good health without make money their priority to do their job, the possibility
to work as employees for private care corporations on a salary basis is very
little.
4. Will routine procedures that physicians perform be taken over by nurse
practicioners and allied health care workers?

If we see the reality that happened now in the medicine world, we can see
there are many doctors that trading on the nurse to do the routine procedures
because they think their nurse can do the procedures in a good way because
they already did that often, and maybe they are too lazy to treat the patients by
themselves. But if they do that, they are not a good doctor because a good
doctor always wants to do their best to their patients.
5. How will these changes effect doctor-patient relations?
I think these changes absolutely will effect doctor-patient relations, these will
change the relations between doctor-patient into a bad relations because if we
want to be a good doctor we have to make a good relationship with our patient
in order to know our patient better and make them comfort with us. Because if
they feel comfort with us and if we have a good relationship with our patient,
we can treat and know them better.
6. Will there be increased competition for patients by health care
organizations and groups of physicians?
Yes I think there will be increased competition for patients by health care
organizations and groups of physicians, because nowadays there are a lot of
people that getting sick. And now, people also need a lot of money to live their
life. So it is one of the reason that makes health care organizations and groups
of physicians compete to get a profit as much as they can.
7. Will increased corporate control and consolidation of health care reduce
the autonomy and influence of community boards and local groups of
physicians?
Yes the increased corporate control and consolidation of health care will
reduce the autonomy and influence of community boards and local groups of
physicians, because the increased of corporate control and consolidation of
health care make the physicians cannot give a good medicine to their patients
if the medicine is not the medicine that own by the corporate company,
although the medicine is better.
