Ranchi: A day after Ranchi's Sadar hospital topped in the country under the Ayushman Bharat - Chief Minister Jan Arogya Yojana, state health minister Irfan Ansari on Thursday advised other district hospitals to scale up their superspecialty services on the lines of Ranchi Sadar Hospital. Ansari said, "A total of 126 specialist doctors have recently been recruited, and 144 more doctors are expressing interest in joining Sadar hospitals across the districts. Hospitals have been instructed to submit their specific requirements so that the state can provide essential resources, including CT scan machines and a steady supply of medicines. Sadar Hospital in Ranchi stands as a model of this transformation. " He added, "It has operationalized superspecialty services in cardiology, nephrology, cancer care, chest diseases, neurology, urology, ophthalmology, plastic surgery, bone transplant, intensive coronary care unit, and cardiac care units. With advanced surgeries such as knee and hip replacements, spine and brain operations, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and complex paediatric procedures now routinely conducted, the hospital has drawn patients not only from across the state but from neighbouring states as well. " Ranchi Sadar Hospital currently hosts 25 private super specialists, seven specialists, and 12 private medical officers alongside 29 govt medical officers (MO). Last year alone, private doctors received Rs 2 crore in incentives, and over Rs 69 lakh has already been disbursed this year. Govt doctors, too, have been rewarded, with Rs 6.09 crore given last year and over Rs 60 lakh this year. Additional chief secretary of the health department, Ajoy Kumar Singh, said, "Efforts are also being made to enhance infrastructure, with the hospital currently operating with 850 beds. Amrit Pharmacy and Jan Aushadhi Kendra on campus ensure that affordable medicines are readily available. The expansion of superspecialty services to district hospitals is expected to drastically reduce dependency on higher tertiary centres. " Sadar Hospital has treated over two lakh Ayushman card holders free of cost. The hospital generated Rs 26 crore in revenue from the Ayushman scheme last year, compared to Rs 19 crore the previous year. Within just three months this year, it has already recorded Rs 14.5 crore in earnings, at a monthly average of Rs 5 crore.

Ranchi sadar hosp to start CT scan services this week
1 2 Ranchi: The Ranchi sadar hospital will roll out CT scan services later this week for its patients, its management said on Monday. A three-day trial run of the machine, which will be operated under public-private partnership (PPP) mode, began on Sunday. "The facility will be fully functional and open to patients after the trial. An MRI machine will also be installed in 15 days," civil surgeon Dr Prabhat Kumar said. The hospital's MoU with Krishna Diagnostics mandate that all patients admitted under the Ayushman Bharat health scheme will be provided with free CT scan services. For others, tests will be conducted based on the Central Govt Health Scheme (CGHS) rates, beginning from Rs 1,050. Dr Kumar said, "An added benefit of the partnership is the revenue-sharing clause outlined in the MoU. Krishna Diagnostics will share 15% of its profits with the Sadar Hospital. These funds would contribute to the development of hospital infrastructure and services, benefiting patients." The hospital would also set up a Cath Lab for cardiac care. This facility, being constructed at a cost of around Rs 8 crore, will provide advanced treatment options for heart patients, reducing the need for referrals to private hospitals. Lauding the move, Rekha Devi of Kanke said, "I was delaying a test as the price of CT scans in private centres was beyond my reach. Undergoing the test at the sadar hospital will save both money and time."
