Just an FYI - in the future walk your blood sample or whatever it is if possible to the area where they will test it. Or pay the guy who would take it for you. Trust me this is an endless issue. Also, much better getting ur blood tested at other diagnostic centers. There probably is a solution to this problem, but Apollo is pretty commercial. <br />KathyayaniAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-27985084423454191572009-08-21T20:08:00.896+05:302009-08-21T20:08:00.896+05:30I hope the Corporate Hospitals are open to take hi...I hope the Corporate Hospitals are open to take hints on improving the services,and handle with care in tune with the Ads.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-75791227183252904772009-08-15T23:35:40.122+05:302009-08-15T23:35:40.122+05:30Well said Karthik !!Well said Karthik !!Santuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200353186338216185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-2851989345483238582009-08-15T00:42:00.064+05:302009-08-15T00:42:00.064+05:30@(Madras Hash & Anonymous) - It's all abou...@(Madras Hash & Anonymous) - It's all about usability. it's all about using common sense to make life simple! And be it in health care or software, usability is what makes the difference! So, I don't think it's right to say that we cannot compare software industry with other industries. In fact the more we compare the better it is, because we don't talk as much about usability in any other industry(at least in India)<br /><br />I guess the way most of us on the technical front (in the software industry) get tuned into usability issues, we look at usability all around us - Kamal's post basically talks about that aspect - to make life simple wherever possible. And this applies to every small thing that we come across on a day to day basis!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-87116715978354492512009-08-14T18:43:19.929+05:302009-08-14T18:43:19.929+05:30Yes I would say software and healthcare should not...Yes I would say software and healthcare should not be compared at all.

1. Ap...I find fault with two things in your blog:<br /><br />1. Apollo is not a Hospital and never has been. It is a Billing Center which draws suckers through the power or advertising and PR. If you had gone to a decent hospital - Adyar Cancer Institute, CMC Vellore and Madras Medical Mission come to mind - you will not have had the kind of experience that you relate.<br /><br />2. The software industry is MUCH WORSE than Apollo. It makes promises that it does not how to fulfill. It rarely delivers on time, and when it does, the result is so sub-standard that it has to keep making corrections over several years and has the gaul to charge for it.<br /><br />Enuf said.Madras Hashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13140992248395169199noreply@blogger.com
