Rajasthan Right to Health Bill: Private doctors in Rajasthan are demanding the withdrawal of the Bill passed in the state assembly on March 28.
Talks between striking doctors and the Rajasthan government over the protest against the Right to Health Bill remained inconclusive on Monday.
The six-member delegation of doctors led by secretary of Private Hospitals and Nursing Homes Society, Vijay Kapoor met the state government representatives to resolve the impasse over the Bill and ensure appropriate medical care to the people.
The meeting, however, failed to reach a concrete solution to the issue.
Private doctors in Rajasthan are demanding the withdrawal of the Bill passed in the state assembly on March 28. According to the bill, every resident of the state will have the right to emergency treatment and care "without prepayment" in any "public health institution, health care establishment and designated health care centres".
