Khammam: Telangana diagnostic hubs set up at district headquarters hospitals in Khammam and Kothagudem have proved to be a major boon for poorer sections in getting medical tests done.

Khammam Diagnostic Hub is capable of conducting 1,800 tests per hour. In all, 57 tests of which 35 are biochemistry, 14 are pathology and eight are microbiology tests are being conducted, the hub’s Nodal Officer Dr B Saidulu informed.

Speaking to Telangana Today, he said on an average around 500 to 600 tests were being conducted at the hub to which samples were being sent from 23 PHCs, CHCs, Area Hospitals, District Hospital and MCH centre.

The area covered by Khammam hub is divided into three routes through which the samples reach the hub every day by 2 pm and the test results are sent to concerned hospitals by evening hours, the Nodal Officer said adding ‘Everything is moving smoothly and greatly helping the rural people to get the medical tests done’.

Dr Saidulu informed that work was under way to establish another diagnostic hub at Sathupalli in the district and it would cover Kallur division and public health facilities around it. The site has already been identified and construction will soon begin, he added.

The hub at Kothagudem equipped with 10 staffers is conducting around 300 tests per day. The samples are being collected from 15 PHCs, five UPHs, Paloncha Area Hospital and District Hospital, informed the hub’s Nodal Officer Dr Bhavu Singh.

Steps were being taken to establish the second hub in the district at Bhadrachalam. It will be functional in another six months and will cover hospitals under Manuguru and Bhadrachalam areas, he informed.
