Government sanctions 16,448 temporary posts for health department
According to the Government Order issued by Finance Secretary Sandeep Kumar Sultania, the sanctioned positions include 4,772 contract services, 8,615 outsourcing services, 3,056 honorarium-based services, and five Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) posts.
The sanctioned posts span a wide range of roles, from senior residents, professors, civil assistant surgeons and nurses, to lab technicians, pharmacists, attendants and data entry operators. For instance, Gandhi Hospital and Osmania General Hospital in Hyderabad alone will account for hundreds of these sanctioned posts under various service categories.
Hyderabad has received the largest share with 1,853 posts, followed by Warangal with 1,061. The remaining posts have been allocated to government medical and nursing institutions spread across the State's 31 other districts, based on local requirements and service load.
The decision, based on a proposal from the DME and a recommendation from the Health, Medical and Family Welfare department, aims to address workforce shortages across teaching hospitals, nursing and medical colleges, and healthcare facilities in both urban and rural areas. The order mandates that remuneration for contract, honorarium and MTS staff will be disbursed through the IFMIS-DBT mode while outsourcing payments will be routed via third-party agencies. All appointments are to be made afresh following proper procedures, including new contracts and compliance with existing norms for recruitment and remuneration, the order said.

‘Missing' equipment row due to misunderstanding: Dr Haris
Thiruvananthapuram: Signalling another round of patch-up exercise at work, head of urology at Thiruvananthapuram medical college hospital Dr Haris Chirackal, on Saturday, said the already punctured attempt by health department to keep him under the needle of suspicion over an allegedly missing medical equipment must have stemmed from pure misunderstanding. Chirackal, who rejoined on duty on Saturday after his revelation about the lack of basic medical facilities at the medical college, told media that health minister Veena George was someone very close to him. Referring to the minister's earlier claims about a part of a medical equipment missing from the urology department, he said she must have been misled by someone. "State govt always stood by me. Health minister is someone very close to me. She might have been misled. I don't want to blame anybody. Hope the probe into the alleged loss of equipment would be complete by Monday," he said. Chirackal said he was under medical care while he was on leave and he apologised to the minister for the controversy when she visited him in hospital. Meanwhile, director of medical education (DME) Dr K V Viswanathan on Saturday said he was the one who called the MCH principal and superintendent over the phone during the news conference and wanted to read out the expert committee report on the 'missing' medical equipment from the urology department.

DME said he tried to guide the principal and superintendent as both of them weren't experienced in addressing the media. An unusual telephone call during the news conference had raised doubts that the doctors were being remotely controlled by some unknown forces.
