Abstract
India’s health sector reforms nevertheless focused on public-private partnership initiatives. These initiatives resulted in the growth of private sectors and responsible for 75% of total health expenditures in India, till 2013. The Ex-post facto correlational study design conducted in National Capital Region, India in three multi-specialty hospitals with 500 beds are administered by three different establishments - trust run, charity based, corporate managed. About 239 medical practitioners were interviewed randomly to understand their performances and productivity. The study found that efficiency, effectiveness, and productivity of medical practitioners and its related hospital management considerably relied on work environment, autonomy, authority, economic measures and its related benefits. The study cautioned that the relationship between medical practitioners and the establishment going upside down, which required to be examined to improve the employee engagement and its outcomes such as patient satisfaction and quality of care, both positively and negatively. The change in the productivity in changed time is an important factor for defining productivity and the medical practitioners’ satisfaction, while the existing measures- worked time, outcomes; economic benefits are only a partial indicator of productivity and performance. The study concludes that care-giving, caring, patient oriented medical practitioners are still desirable but is insufficient to influence positive outcomes and patient inflows, in the absence of positive energy at work environment, good leadership skills and motivations, results in mediocre outcomes. Hence, there is a need for quality affiliation, which is important for efficiency and productivity of medical practitioners.
