ANGIOPLASTY IRREGULARITIES

5 Gujarat hospitals de-panelled from PMJAY due to irregularities; 2 doctors also face action

​​​The action comes in the backdrop of Ahmedabad-based Khyati Multispecialty Hospital caught performing unnecessary angioplasty procedure on several PMJAY cardholders just to siphon off government money. The scam, in which the private hospital's management and doctors were involved, came to light after two healthy people died following angioplasty, a procedure used to open blocked coronary arteries in heart patients.
