Holding Narketpally-based Kamineni Hospital liable for medical negligence leading to the death of a patient during childbirth, the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC), Nalgonda, has directed it to pay Rs 1 crore compensation to the deceased's family.
Noting that the patient was administered anaesthesia twice, resulting in an overdose, the District Consumer Court held that the treating doctors and the hospital failed to exercise adequate care during and after surgery, leading to the death of the patient back in 2018.
