Raids have been conducted at five hospitals in Ghaziabad and irregularities were found in stocking of life-saving medicines. The administration had received complaints that the hospitals have admitted people who were not having Covid symptoms to show their beds occupied.
The facilities were later providing beds at exorbitant rates, according to a statement. A team checked the stocks of Nagar Hospital and it was found that from April 6, the facility hospital had received 250 remdesivir injections, while it was declared as Covid hospital on April 25. The medical store was selling remdesivir directly to the needy and no record of sale was maintained, an official said.
Remdesivir was not given to the patients who were admitted to the hospitals. The whole stock was sold out at the medicine outlet of the hospital, the official said. Four more facilities, Ganesh Hospital, Narinder Mohan hospital, Le Crest, and Atlanta hospitals have been warned to rectify the errors found in records maintenance. They will submit the record within a week. Notice has been issued to the management of Nagar hospital.
Action would be initiated against the management under the pandemic and other appropriate sections of law.
