today near to NEW WORLD CENTER after I had food and returning back to room. A Pak guy came to me and ask for help for treament Spinal cord.

My Previous roommate said a story before ie: A CID saw a guy is begging for money for his Operation in a shop. he caught this person and gave a Sheikh number to him to get money for Operation and CID continued Begging is Illegal in Qatar and Hamad hospital is giving free Operation for poor people. 

come back to the point

I asked him Was hamad hospital giving free treament? then he showed some medicine to me from Hamad. then he said he want to go back Pakistan but no money and asked him where he is working? he said working in Industrail area. He was speaking in Hindi and I know only broken hindi. So I couldnt ask more.

what happened today is a new for me as I am new guy at Doha. May be I face this incident in future too and I wish when I help a person with money it must reach to the right person even the amount is small.

So I just like know answer for two following Question. 

 

  • Is hamad hospital giving free Operation for Poor people? If So how to approach for it?
  • If a poor guy dont have money to return back to native. Do they embassy help them?

Really Appreciate your time If you can answer back. because this info may help others & you get reward from God for this.

The problem is not all are applied what is in the law. Anyhow, if your company do not provide for one, you must tell them that it is their obligation to give you health card.

If you have a health card, you can go to Hamad for examination and depending on your condition, they will refer you to a specialist Dr. in Hamad to treat you well. It's free and covered in the health insurance including medicine which you have to pay just 20% of the actual price. The amount you pay can then be reimbursed by the company you are working with. So all is free.... Moreover, it is the duty of every country to take care of its people this is the reason why embassies are here to take care of their people. The poor guy can go to their embassy and hopefully he will be taken care of.
