AP Medical Professionals demand Fair pay, Cadre Allocation in NTR Vaidya seva Trust

Vaidyamithra is the first point of contact for the patients visiting the hospitals and will help them through their treatment journey starting from patient registration to treatment and discharge to follow-up. They play crucial roles in hospital administration, data processing, and vigilance to ensure the effective implementation of health schemes. However, they pointed out the lack of cadre allotment, which has left them with no opportunities for career growth.

Speaking to TNIE, K Jakaraiah, vice president of the Dr NTR Vaidyaseva Trust said, “We are not asking for luxuries; we are asking for justice. We want recognition for our qualifications, implementation of a minimum time scale, and proper HR policies."

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that the Punjab Civil Medical Services Association (PCMSA) has announced an indefinite strike across all public healthcare facilities of the state, starting from January 20th. The action comes in response to the failure to fulfil time-bound commitments related to the rollout of a security framework and the reinstatement of the Dynamic Assured Career Progression (DACP) scheme.
