FREE MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR EWS CANCER PATIENTS


Action Cancer Hospital, Paschim Vihar, New Delhi is world state of art hospital for Cancer patients. It has 100 beds out of which 10 beds are totally free and reserved for Economically Weaker Section (EWS) patients in terms of Hon’ble Delhi High Court Orders in Social Jurist PIL case. The hospital was inspected on Saturday 12 August 2012 by the High Court appointed Monitoring Committee of which I am a member and found that the hospital is doing good job for the EWS patients suffering from Cancer. All the 10 beds were found occupied by EWS Cancer Patients at the time of inspection. The hospital is providing totally free treatment which includes PET-CT whole body, MRI Head with Contrast, PET Guide Biopsy, CT Thorax with contrast, 2D Echo, RBC, PRBC and FFP to the EWS Patients and that too without any discrimination. I would like to thank Dr. Asha Aggarwal, Medical Superintendent of the Action Cancer Hospital.
