Minister: Govt trying to make hospitals self-supporting


Health Minister Samanta Lal Sen on Sunday once again directed his attention towards the longstanding issues that need work to be sorted out in the country's hospitals.

"Every place in the hospitals, even the residence of the doctors in the hospital, is dilapidated. So, we have to work there," the health minister said at one point, while speaking at a dialogue with the Bangladesh Secretariat Reporters Forum (BSRF) at the Secretariat.

In reply to a question, the health minister said he has come to know how patients are sent to private clinics from government hospitals.

"I will not accept this anymore," he warned. No effort will be spared in taking care of patients to the best of their ability by government hospitals.
