Odisha: Install card swipe machines in hospitals directs Govt
Advertisement
The Odisha government asked the district collectors to facilitate installing credit and debit card swipe machines in different health institutions for smooth transactions.
The move of the government came after patients and attendants faced problems following the demonetisation of higher denominations.
In a letter to the district collectors, Health Secretary Arti Ahuja asked them to install card swipe machines in medical colleges, district headquarters hospitals, sub-divisional hospitals with a proper tie-up with banks and proper receipt mechanism.
