Bribe in Kashiram Hospital

Reported on January 20, 2016 from Kanpur , Uttar Pradesh  ι Report #89999

My daily worker's son had his leg fractured. My worker went to Kanshi Ram Hospital where he was asked to pay a bribe to get his son's foot plastered the same day or else he would have to return back tomorrow. He paid 50 rupees to the X-ray machine technician to get the X-ray the same day. The doctor himself never took money but he asked his technician to handle it. He was also asked to pay 40 rupees to get an injection (probably an anaesthetic) and not to mention it to anyone, for the son's plaster to be done the same day. Additionally all drugs were written such that they weren't available from the medical store inside the hospital. Even calcium tablets had to be sourced from outside. Other places which asked for bribe included the first point where the patient form is made.
