Kamla Nehru Hospital Dialysis Center |  Kamala Nehru Hospital Dialysis Center was initially started in Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) Kamala Nehru Hospital.  The Center has been entrusted to Lions Club of Poona Mukundnagar Charitable Trust.  However, irregularities were found in the daily operations of the dialysis center run by this organization.  Therefore, the work was withdrawn from the organization.  As a result, the dialysis service at the hospital was closed.  Now a new 15 bed unit will be started soon.  This work will be given to THS Wellness Private Limited.  After completing the tender process, the administration has placed the proposal before the PMC Standing Committee.

 Dialysis Center was initially started in Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) Kamala Nehru Hospital.  The Center has been entrusted to Lions Club of Poona Mukundnagar Charitable Trust.  However, irregularities were found in the daily operations of the dialysis center run by this organization.  This was likely to affect the health of the patients, so the municipal administration blamed the Lions Club for not being able to run the centre.  An explanation was also sought from the organization.  But the organization had accused the municipal corporation itself.  Therefore, the Municipal Corporation has withdrawn the work from the organization.  So this center is closed for a month.  The Municipal Corporation had now started a new tender process.

 7 companies came forward after the Pune Municipal Corporation implemented the tender process.  The rate of THS was the lowest among them.  Therefore, the municipality is jointly running the project with the company.  2000 square feet of space in Kamala Nehru Hospital will be allotted for Dialysis Unit and Dialysis Attached Intensive Care Unit.  The institution will be granted tenure of 10 years and then twice by extension of 10 years.  The rent of the place will not be taken from the municipal body.  But the organization has to set up all the systems from staff to machinery.

 As a part of providing affordable facilities to the poor who cannot bear the burden of private hospitals, the Health Department of Pune Municipal Corporation has started dialysis facility at a low cost in its 8 clinics on PPP basis.  This facility is provided for just 400 rupees.  It has been 7 years, the municipality is providing this facility.  So far more than 71 thousand people have benefited from this service.  (What is the cost of one session of dialysis In PMC Pune Hospitals?)

 On behalf of the Pune Municipal Corporation PMC, a dialysis center was first started in Kamla Nehru Hospital PMC in the year 2017.  This facility has been made available for only Rs 400 in the center done on PPP basis.  After seeing the response, the Municipal Corporation started this facility in 7 more hospitals.  But the need for this is still increasing.  Because the number of patients is also increasing.
