Bhagyoday Hospital of Kadi under scrutiny over ‘outsourcing’ surgeries

New revelations about private hospitals exploiting poor people and the government schemes are coming to light, following the Khyati hospital scandal.

Another incident has now emerged involving Bhagyoday Hospital, which has been linked to a corporate agreement with Sanjeevani Multispeciality Hospital. 

All heart surgeries performed at  Bhagyoday are conducted by cardiologists from Sanjeevani hospital.

Bhagyodaya Hospital allegedly paid high commission to doctors and hospital administrators who submitted claims for heart surgery procedures to the health department.

These commissions were allegedly paid on a percentage basis. As a result, Dr Prashant Vajirali and four other cardiologists at Bhagyodaya Hospital followed the same practice – charging ₹1.20 lakh for angioplasties, implanting the stents that patients did not need..

According to sources, many hospitals are part of such scams with similar modus operandi.
