A day after the incident of alleged negligence death of a 46-year-old patient at SSKM Hospital on Tuesday, agitating junior doctors demanding justice for the heinous rape and murder of a woman postgraduate trainee (PGT) doctor at R G Kar Hospital, urged state chief secretary Manoj Pant on Wednesday to streamline the referral system in connection with patients' admissions to different government medical colleges and hospitals.
On Tuesday, Sushil Haldar, a resident of Garia, died at SSKM Hospital after he was allegedly denied admissions in three premier state-run teaching hospitals - SSKM Hospital, Medical College Hospital and NRS Medical college Hospital since Monday night. Even the chief minister Mamata Banerjee's residential office at Kalighat that had directed SSKM Hospital authorities to admit the patient could not save him. The reason: SSKM Hospital could not arrange a bed for the patient, who was bleeding from mouth and nose.
