Low rates under 'Modicare' will reduce quality: Medical body
Indian Medical Association President Dr Ravi Wankhedkar has said the reduced cost of treatments under the National Health Protection Mission, dubbed as 'Modicare', will lead to compromised quality of services. Adding that the rates will expose patients to danger, he said the scheme will breed corruption. Treatments and surgeries will be provided at 15-20% cheaper rates under the initiative.
