Agra:12.05.2021
Arun Kansal, a 62-year-old resident of Agra, died while being treated for Covid at Ravi hospital and his family was charged a bill of Rs 9.6 lakh. This was found to be in violation of the rates fixed by the state government for the treatment of Covid patients, and the hospital has been debarred from further admissions.
Following a complaint made by the patient’s family, and an initial investigation, district magistrate Prabhu N Singh has debarred the hospital from admitting Covid-19 patients. A showcause notice has also been issued to the hospital, which is owned by the former district president of Indian Medical Association, Dr Ravi Mohan Pachori. Action will be taken against the hospital if it fails to reply, said officials. TNN
