This will bring a big change in the health services in the government hospitals, Patnaik said, adding that in the next five years, 1858 more hospitals in the state will be transformed into Ama Hospitals for which over Rs.3300 crores provision has been made during 2023- 2028.

Highlighting on the state’s health services, the Chief Minister said during the last year 4000 doctors and more than 3700 nurses have been recruited while infrastructure, basic facilities for the patients, and service delivery systems have been improved in hospitals across the state.

Under the 'Ama Hospital' scheme, launched last year, existing hospitals are refurbished and sufficient manpower is ensured.

Inaugurating the facilities, Patnaik said the hospitals have been transformed keeping the convenience of the patients in mind.

He also inaugurated five dialysis centres in sub-divisional hospitals.
