환자들은 새벽이 오기 전부터 저렴한 사우스 오클랜드 클리닉에서 의사를 만나기 위해 줄을 서고 있습니다.

오클랜드 남부의 오타라 지역 의사에서는 아프거나 다친 사람들이 매일 아침 의사를 만나기 위해 몇 시간씩 기다린다.이 클리닉은 매우 낮은 비용 이용 (Very Low Cost Access) 제도의 일부로서, 진료 예약 시 19.50달러만 청구하여 의료가 필요한 사람들을 돕고 있는데, 이는 오클랜드의 일반적인 비용인 60달러보다 훨씬 저렴합니다.

환자들은 겨울철에도 새벽 6시 30분부터 줄을 서는 경우가 많습니다.클리닉 CEO인 로이드 맥캔 (Lloyd McCann) 은 이렇게 긴 대기열을 보면 사람들이 얼마나 의료 서비스를 간절히 원하는지 알 수 있다고 말했습니다.직원들은 준비를 위해 일찍 도착하지만, 아직도 많은 직원들이 진료를 받기 위해 몇 시간씩 기다립니다.

심장 질환을 앓고 있는 환자 티우 투이타라가 자신의 어려움을 털어놓았습니다.그는 밖에서 한 시간 정도 기다렸다가 병원 안에서 3~4시간을 더 기다린다.그는 “심장마비를 일으키고 싶지 않아요.” 라고 말하며 자신의 건강을 걱정합니다.

실바 포남팔람 (Silva Ponnampalam) 박사는 긴 줄을 보고 슬퍼합니다. 특히 어린이나 심각한 질환을 앓고 있는 환자들은 더욱 그렇습니다.McCann은 많은 환자들이 복잡한 건강 문제를 안고 있으며, 이로 인해 환자들의 처지가 더 어려워진다고 지적했습니다.

이 클리닉에는 매달 더 많은 환자가 들어오고 있으며, 많은 환자가 겨울철 질병과 기타 문제로 고통 받고 있습니다.McCann은 의료 수요가 증가하고 있으며 환자들은 여러 가지 건강 문제를 겪는 경우가 많다고 지적했습니다.그는 또한 1차 진료를 위한 자금이 수년 동안 저조했기 때문에 클리닉에서 진료를 제공하기가 더 어려워졌다고 언급했습니다.

GP 서비스에 대한 자금 부족은 현 정부뿐만 아니라 수십 년에 걸쳐 축적되어 온 오랜 문제입니다.1차 진료에 더 많은 투자를 하면 질병을 조기에 발견할 수 있고, 궁극적으로 비용이 많이 드는 병원 방문 횟수를 줄여 비용을 절감할 수 있습니다.
