Over 360 hospitals under Telangana’s Aarogyasri network have announced suspension of services to scheme beneficiaries starting August 31, citing unpaid dues amounting to Rs 1,300–1,400 crore. The Telangana Network Hospitals Association (TANHA) has raised concerns over the financial stress caused by delayed payments and unfulfilled promises from the government.
Health Minister Damodar Raja Narasimha promises to address several of their outstanding issues, including redrafting MoUs, revising Aarogyasri rates and clearing pending medical bills
Due to non-payment of Arogyasri amount, poor and the needy are not able to get health services from network hospitals, says Union Minister of State for Home
