"Though the CRS portal has enabled hospitals to submit data online, we are still receiving entries with incomplete documentation or beyond the 21-day period," deputy municipal commissioner Gautam Prasad Sahu said.
"We have equipped every private hospital with unique hospital IDs to facilitate digital registration. But delays in uploading documents or improper filing defeat the purpose of digitisation," he said.
"Hospitals were instructed to ensure that all supporting documents, such as ID proofs of parents and hospital discharge summaries, are uploaded correctly and within the timeframe," said Mukesh Ranjan, the assistant municipal commissioner.
Applications received after the 21-day deadline will now attract a penalty of Rs 500 per case, officials said.
The civic body would monitor if the hospitals were complying with the directive. Follow-ups would be conducted to reduce pendency and ensure citizens receive birth certificates without procedural hassles, they added.

Tripura CM mulls sex education in Class VIII-XII curriculum

Agartala: Tripura CM on Friday said the state govt is considering the introduction of sex education in the curriculum for students in Classes VIII to XII. Speaking at the legislative forum in the state assembly, Saha emphasised the importance of this initiative, stating, "We are considering incorporating sex education and HIV/AIDS awareness in the school curriculum in Class VIII-XII. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now This is not a matter of controversy, it is a necessity." He also encouraged community involvement, suggesting that MLAs could allocate funds to support HIV/AIDS patients. Saha highlighted the equal impact of HIV/AIDS on both boys and girls and stressed the importance of engaging youth in sports, cultural activities, and other creative pursuits to steer them away from drug addiction and reduce their vulnerability to HIV/AIDS. He said Tripura was the first state in India to introduce Red Ribbon Clubs in schools and plans to create youth ambassadors to lead campaigns against drug abuse. Expressing concern over the rising number of HIV/AIDS cases and injecting drug users, particularly among teenagers, Saha said an average of 120 new HIV infections are reported each month in the state, despite preventive efforts by the state AIDS Control Society. In response to a proposal by Congress legislator Sudip Roybarman, the chief minister supported the idea of adding a dedicated chapter on sex education and HIV/AIDS to the school curriculum to raise awareness among the most vulnerable age group. Additionally, he suggested that each MLA could allocate Rs 1 lakh per year from their area development fund for initiatives against drugs and HIV.

Delhi govt plans to explore PPP model for completion and operation of 11 underconstruction hospitals

New Delhi: With a requirement of nearly Rs 9,000 crore for the completion of 11 underconstruction hospitals and the need for the creation of 42,000 additional posts of medical, para-medical, administrative and support staff, Delhi govt is likely to explore the possibility of completion, commissioning, operation and maintenance of these upcoming health facilities on a public-private partnership (PPP) model. Sources said the health and family department of Delhi govt might soon engage a transaction adviser to get "technical, financial and legal analysis" of different aspects of PPP, which would help in choosing an appropriate model and setting the standards for the selection of a credible private entity to deliver the project. The proposal seeking in-principle approval for exploring PPP models and the hiring of a transaction adviser is likely to be placed before the council of ministers soon. The report and recommendations of the transaction adviser will again be placed before the cabinet for "guidance and decision", sources said. They added that chief minister Rekha Gupta held a high-level meeting on May 21 when the decision to explore the PPP mode to complete and operationalise these hospitals was taken. While four multi-specialty general hospitals are coming up in Jwalapuri, Madipur, Hastsal and Siraspur, seven exclusive ICU-bedded hospitals are being built in Shalimar Bagh, Kirari, Sultanpuri, Geeta Colony, Dilshad Garden, Sarita Vihar and Raghubir Nagar. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses Egypt (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search Ads Search Now Undo The 11 new health facilities were taken up for construction in 2020 and 2021 after the Covid-19 pandemic hit the world. While the construction of four general hospitals started between Sept and Nov 2020, the seven ICU-bedded health facilities were sanctioned in Sept 2021. Sources said no physical progress has taken place in these projects in the past few months. All the hospitals were to be built on priority, but have missed several deadlines due to the paucity of funds. The finance department of Delhi govt flagged a serious "resource crunch" in Sept 2024. In its proposal for considering the public-private partnership model and hiring the transaction adviser, the health department argued that the construction cost already escalated by almost 50% — from Rs 2,663 crore of the initial estimates to Rs 3,947 crore — and to make these hospitals operational, mobilisation of critical resources such as healthcare manpower and medical and non-medical equipment would be required to be put in place. Officials said that commissioning and operation of these 11 hospital projects entailed huge financial allocations, besides the burden of creating thousands of posts, a long recruitment process, and an annual recurring financial burden on their operation. The private enterprises will bring capital, manpower and requisite expertise, and recover the investment through reasonable revenue generation from operation. Sources said that the transaction adviser would also determine the present status of infrastructure, study the legal aspects of the existing contractual agreements of the ongoing construction, and assess the risks in smooth transition to the PPP mode. A project management unit will be set up in the health and family welfare department, with a special secretary as its head, which will provide support to the transaction adviser and expedite the process of consultancy.
