But there will be issue why nurse, Ho, MO who attend to the patient don't have kickback especially when they did all the dirty works

At least in private, nurse have 2-3x the salary

Though the FPP system has the intention of retaining our trained specialist from leaving government service.. There will be several issues that will arise..
As Ibrahimovic mentioned, only the specialist will get the tip. Other staffs below are MAY NOT receive anything and still forced to do the work. There are some hospitals that pay the staff "locum pay" to compensate for this workers.. But these does not come from the paying patients, and the government will have to cough up the money. It is possible they will disallow this from happening later on.
The issue is having alot of trained specialist leaving the government service Its really a no-brainer. Specialist in private are paid 200-500% more than government pay. Even if the doctors are willing to stay, they will end up put their families in debt. No fully self sponsored medical education can pay back their education loan unless they work in private. Pension money is also chicken shit compared to the salary and working life outside.
The only advantage of staying in government service is the semi-immunity against medicolegal cases.
A third issue which i find is the most important issue, is the Bias treatment toward FFP.
In certain hospitals (sorry cant name these hospitals), FFP patients get to cut ques from the non-FFP patients.
Specialist would drop and postpone their other cases to jump at these FFPs.

I can see the logic the government side. By doing this, they can immediately retain specialist and push MO to be specialist.

They know MO and nurse can't complaint about equality when they can't go anywhere as most uni are not recognized oversea. So they are stuck.

But I can foresee ' unimportant stuff for gov' happening. Happiness, equality, worsening hierarchy, worsen patient care for nonFPP. But it's a long term so it would be look into until well in the future where the government hope the economy picks up that they can just raise salary inches by inches to make everyone happy again.

Genius move I say.

Not sure but I heard this from Kpj staff and some local private hospital. Their salary around RM5k++ for 5 years or more experience. Maybe they include overtime and other perks.
