Because there is no clinical audit, hospital might have contributed to her death. Most hospitals don't do clinical audit and autopsy. Even if she dies due to complications of treatment or disease, it think there should be some waiver in this kind of situation. Social workers should verify the claim of the parents concerning their financial status. If family refuses to claim the body due to financial constraints, hospital would keep on managing the corpse in mortuary for months even years and family can sue the hospital if mass burial is performed on her. 1 Like |

ManirBK:If it were that easy. The parents would love to pay their last respect to their daughter just like any loving relative would! .lf not for money. God punish poverty. Now their poor daughters corpse would be classified as unclaimed corpse & sent as "Cadaver" for student medical doctors in (state teaching hospitals to use as experiment in practicals theatre/ laboratory classes |

Sad, if only there was health insurance for them it would not have gotten to this. The common man passes through a lot in this country. After spending all they have still have to pay for releasing the corpse. |

The parents should calm down. The worst is over The child is dead, Mortuary fees aren't expensive. It will be like ₦500 daily. If it was dreadfully expensive, that would be another issue It's best they have consultation with the hospital. |

joyandfaith: Death while receiving treatment in the hospital is an indication for conducting an autopsy. I wonder why this is not in practice. We are only taught these things in medical schools, but in our environment, due to religious, ethnical, and financial factors, autopsies are hardly done. Ideally, in medico-legal cases, the state should sponsor the postmortem; it shouldn't be the responsibility of the patient relatives. Because postmortems are hardly done, the causes of death in our facilities are difficult to objectively determine. As a result, caregivers do not learn from past mistakes, they are not held responsible for their actions, or inactions, and the patient relatives do not have a definitive closure. There is trully a need to revamp our country's health sector (essentially, all sectors in this country needs this). 2 Likes |

Shebi if the next patient that needs emergency treatment is ignored because they couldn't pay first for treatment and so dies, the hospital will not be held accountable. Because some of you write as if you don't have sense. Is it a spirit that will pay for the expenses incurred in Oxygen and drugs while TRYING to save her life? God gives and God takes. That one comes to the hospital and receives emergency treatment doesn't mean the person must automatically be healed. They are doctors, they are NOT GOD. The doctors can only try. Many will be saved but some will not be saved but the doctors will still use drugs and resources to try to save them and this cost money that someone will have to PAY FOR.... 5 Likes 1 Share |
