Raids unearth irregularities in COVID-19 hospitals

Officials find misuse of Remdesivir, overcharging for services Notwithstanding the tall claims being made by the government over the measures taken to streamline the sale of Remdesivir vials in the State, stocks worth lakhs of rupees were being sold illegally every day. Officials of the Vigilance and Enforcement (V&E), Drug Control Administration (DCA), Police and Medical and Health Department, who conducted raids on a few COVID hospitals, found many irregularities in the last two days. “Out of nine hospitals verified, we found misuse of about 160 Remdesivir vials in four. In some hospitals, the managements were fleecing the patients by collecting ₹3,000 and above for oxygen supply and a huge amount from patients for giving admissions,” said a Vigilance and Enforcement officer.
