Doctor and hospital fined Rs 17 lakh for misdiagnosis, wrong dosage, and record forgery

Palakkad: The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC) recently held a doctor and a private hospital in Palakkad guilty of medical negligence for administering the wrong dosage of folitrax containing Methotrexate (MTX) leading to the patient's death and directed them to pay Rs 17 lakh as compensation. The consumer court noted that there was grave negligence on the part of the orthopaedic doctor and the hospital and records were forged to hide vital information of the treatment.

Filing the plea before the consumer court, the deceased patient's family members alleged that the doctor had administered MTX at 7.5 mg twice daily when the medical protocol dictates that the permissible dosage of MTX is 7.5 mg per week.
