We have not only checked the alarming decline in health infrastructure and funding in up-gradation, but also steadily increased it in the last couple of years.

The Lt Governor advised the Nephrologists, dialysis experts and transplant physicians to seek innovative ways, research and development to provide affordable and inclusive solutions.

We also need to improve care coordination and patient education for those living with kidney disease in rural areas through enhanced coordination with the government, added the Lt Governor.

In order to develop future technologies such as artificial kidneys and ensure a flexible care model, we have to nurture nephrology segment, attract and retain brightest experts in the field and promote organ donation and safe transplantation campaign within the country, the Lt Governor further added.

We are proud of our scientists, experts and doctors who are transforming India into a healthcare giant, the Lt Governor said.
