My father was in NMDC, Bailadila and retired in 2003. Apollo Hospitals has some impressive impression initially on the employees. Since we lived in a remote place, for higher treatment it'd require people to go to Hyderabad and given the high profile hospital Apollo Hospital, almost everybody asked to be referred to this hospital.
Those referred to Apollo from NMDC had their all bills paid in full by NMDC, so a patient was a blank cheque to encash on by the Apollo Hospital.
For Apollo Hospital doctors, it did not take much time to understand this way to dupe NMDC.
Now even if a patient who could be cured by simple medicine or non-invasive procedure was operated by Apollo doctors in no time. They started earning huge money by false operations. The doctors would do all kinds of useless tests and even admit the patients when no required.
Soon Apollo Hospital, Jubilee Hills became a huge burden to NMDC and was looting NMDC left and right. So finally NMDC stopped giving referrals to this hospital, or giving referral sparingly at all.
I just want you all to know what lies behind all those big hospitals in India. Beware!
