New Delhi [India], May 11 (ANI): A Mumbai based COVID-19 hospital approached the Supreme Court on Tuesday alleging that an oxygen supplier Indo Gas has denied the supply of medical oxygen to the hospital forcing patients to be transferred to other hospitals.
The plea was filed by Crystal Hospital Ltd, now renamed as NIHS Re-Life Hospital Ltd, Mumbai, which said that the hospital was willing to pay five times the approved price, but Indo Gas denied supply and demanded a minimum of 10 times the official rate.
The petition said the NIHS Re-Life Hospital is a COVID hospital with 90 beds of which 13 have hi-tech ICU facilities.
