Delhi Health Infrastructure: Key takeaways from Panel recommendations
Taking note of problems affecting the healthcare services at the Government-run hospitals in Delhi, a committee constituted by the Delhi High Court recently submitted its interim report listing the immediate, short term and long-term measures required to be implemented for the betterment of the system.
Medical Dialogues had previously reported that earlier this year, expressing displeasure over the “misleading” information provided to it on the functioning of medical equipment in GTB hospital, the Delhi High Court had advised the State to constitute a committee of doctors to examine the hospitals run by the city government to come up with a solution. These directions were issued by the Court while considering a PIL initiated by it on its own in 2017 concerning the issue of the non-availability of ICU beds and ventilator facilities in government hospitals in Delhi.
