Agartala: To improve the healthcare facilities in Tripura, the new government has announced a three months action plan mainly putting the existing infrastructures in place and strengthening the monitoring mechanism adhering to the regulations.
After a daylong review of the healthcare system of the state, Health Minister Sudip Roy Barman today said that to arrest the flow of patients to outside Tripura even for the most common diseases, the state government is going to start super-specialty service of Cardiology, Neurology and Nephrology by next couple of months in Agartala Govt Medical College (AGMC).
“Average more than two hundred patients are going outside the state every month and the state government are paying more than Rs 7 Cr annually exclusively under state government sponsored health assurance scheme. Besides, average more than Rs 30 Cr has been draining out from the state only due to inadequate healthcare facilities. We shall not allow it anymore,” Mr Roy Barman stated.
He said that people of Tripura largely lost confidence on the hospital services in the state and the state government has emphasized to re-gain it as soon as possible. To begin with in AGMC the state government would introduce Aadhar based biometric attendance and entire process of service delivery system to bring under CCTV surveillance, which will be closely monitored by a dedicated team of experts.
