Aarogyasri scheme in dump?
Aarogyasri Scheme in Dump. After the state bifurcation the number of patients visiting hospitals for treatment under Arogyasri scheme has drastically fallen. While government hospitals see a fall of 10% patients, the corporate hospitals see a fall of 30% patients, overall.
Hyderabad: After the state bifurcation the number of patients visiting hospitals for treatment under Arogyasri scheme has drastically fallen. While government hospitals see a fall of 10% patients, the corporate hospitals see a fall of 30% patients, overall.
While at average 60-80 patients used to visit the private hospitals under the Arogyasri scheme, now it has come down to 30-40, added sources. It is learnt that NIMS (Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences) which used to have an average flow of 80 patients daily has come down to 20 to 30 patients.
So far no clarity has been sought on the scheme after the state bifurcation. With no clarity from the government regarding whether the scheme will be continued or scrapped, there is a lot of confusion among the patients. Patients were not sure whether they want to opt for treatment under the scheme.
Earlier, Hyderabad was the favoured destination for healthcare and despite hospitals in Vijayawada and Visakhapatnam patients used to come to Hyderabad for its facilities. But after bifurcation there has been a slight change.
