Kick Backs For Orthopedic Surgery In Chennai India
Posted: 04-21-06 12:16pm

Yes its true. A private orthopaedic hospital has thrown ethics to the wind and have sent its agents to solicit patient referrals from general practitioners in turn assuring them of a 7% cut from the total hospital bill. A poor gp will fall head over heels to coerce his patient to undergo surgery at that hospital.

This same hospital has unleashed a publicity campaign over tv, radio and the print media claiming that they are doing a knee replacement through arthroscopic surgery. This claim is not only absurd but false, misleading and malicious. The unaware patient will get admitted expecting only 5 mm scars but will discover after waking up from surgery that his knee has been cut up by 6 inches( mandatory length of scar for a total knee replacement)
the chief of the hospital is a megalomaniac and assumes that he has pocketed the high and mighty of indian politics, medical council and other bodies. He has only himself to deceive by this false propoganda.

He offers kickbacks to several health ministries in the gulf like oman, kuwait, saudi, etc.
