The family of the victims approached Rohini Court seeking direction to the concerned investigating agency to file status report and monitor the police investigation
A day after Max Hospital in Shalimar Bagh reopened after 10 days, the family of the victims approached Rohini Court seeking direction to the concerned investigating agency to file status report and monitor the police investigation.
"How can they allow the hospital to function? We want to have all details about the case and how the files have moved so far," said Ashish Kumar, the father of the premature twin.
The hospital had presented its case to the Finance commissioner on Tuesday. "The operation of impugned order is stayed till the next hearing," says the order by Finance Commissioner. The next hearing is on January 9.
"Max Hospital Shalimar Bagh has resumed its operations from today, following a stay order issued by the appropriate Appellate authority to whom an appeal was made. We are fully focused on providing quality care to all our patients and honouring our commitment of ensuring free treatment to the economically weaker sections of the society," the hospital said in its statement on Wednesday morning.
The Delhi government on December 8 had cancelled the license of the hospital's branch in Shalimar Bagh for wrongly declaring a baby dead. A preliminary report submitted by a panel of doctors to the Delhi government had found the hospital guilty of not having followed the prescribed medical norms in dealing with a pair of newborn twins.
The three-member panel had submitted the report after scrutinising hospital records and meeting with the staff concerned. After the infant's death, investigation into the alleged medical negligence case was transferred from the northwest district police to the Crime Branch.
"In compliance of the cancellation order, planned procedures, including 171 chemo therapies, 63 surgeries, and 241 dialysis sessions had to be cancelled, rescheduled or transferred," the hospital had said in a statement.
The Max hospital in Shalimar Bagh, on a monthly basis, attends to nearly 14,000 patients in the OPD, over 1,600 emergency patients, and an additional 3,000 in the inpatient wards.
