AArogyasri staff strike hit 800 patients

Outpatients of 800 at Gandhi hospital reamained unattended on Wednesday because of the staff of Arogyasri went on strike. The staff protested the non appointment of a co-ordinator to monitor cases at the hospital.

The former co-ordinator’s term came to an end in February. For the past two months there has been no co-ordinator. Angry patients had to return as there was no one to register their cards. Consequently surgeries could be planned as the admission process of recording cases are not followed.
