Rao said, "State government has launched an equipment management policy at Rs. 20 crores. We are modernizing morgues and purchasing 56 premium ultrasound machines at the cost of Rs. 30 crores. While the state government does its utmost to provide modernized and accessible facilities, the standard of healthcare partly depends on caregivers. Our responsibility is to offer the impoverished in Telangana's rural and urban areas access to high-quality healthcare facilities", ABP reports.
