Haryana Launches On-Call Specialist Doctor System
The Haryana government is starting a new program to make specialist doctors available at government hospitals.
This means people in rural areas can quickly get help from experts like surgeons and pediatricians.
The doctors will be available on-call, not always at one place.
The program will begin in five districts, and will expand across the state later.
The goal is to improve healthcare and make it easier for people to get the care they need near their homes.
Haryana introduces an on-call system for specialist doctors in government hospitals.
The initiative aims to provide timely access to expert care, especially in rural areas.
Specialist services include anesthesiology, surgery, radiology, gynecology, and pediatrics.
The system operates under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.
The project will start in five districts before statewide expansion.
