The Employees' State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) has decided to directly operate its newly established hospitals. This strategic shift in management approach is understood to be prompted by recent developments concerning ESIC facilities in West Bengal.
Previously, ESIC had considered outsourcing the management of these new healthcare centers. However, the situation in West Bengal appears to have led the corporation to reassess its strategy, opting for direct control to ensure operational efficiency and service delivery.
This decision signifies a move towards greater administrative oversight by ESIC itself over its expanding healthcare infrastructure. The focus remains on providing healthcare services to its beneficiaries through these new facilities.
