The citizens in Mira-Bhayandar will be able to take the benefit of walking into a multi-speciality hospital and obtain cashless treatment, a day after Chief Minister Eknath Shinde formally inaugurates the facility located near the highway in Kashimira on 14, February.

An idea of Shiv Sena legislator Pratap Sarnaik, the four-storeyed hospital building built by a private developer in exchange of Transfer Development Rights (TDR) stands completed and equipped to cater health care facilities to patients on a cashless and zero billing system. The state government had allocated funds amounting Rs25 crore needed for procuring high-tech medical equipment and devices.

The ‘no cash counter’ system at the hospital will dispense free treatment under Mahatma Jyotirao Phule Jan Arogya Yojana (MPJAY) – a flagship state government health scheme which provides end-to-end cashless services. Families holding yellow and orange ration cards will be eligible for free treatment and medicines under the MPJAY scheme.

 The hospital which has been named in memory of Matoshri Indirabai Baburai Sarnaik will replicate the model implemented by the Thane Municipal Corporation (MBMC) for running the Matoshri Gangubai Sambhaji Hospital. The inauguration was earlier scheduled to be held on January 23 – a day which is observed as “Bal Thackeray Jayanti”, the birth anniversary of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray.
