Description

In a landmark decision, the CCI (Competition Commission of India) has slammed three large private hospitals for overcharging patients unfairly by sending them notices.

Host Ratna Bhushan finds out from Sujatha Rao, Former Bureaucrat with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Teena Thacker, Senior Assistant Editor at the Economic Times, and Sonam Chandwani, Managing Partner at KS Legal & Associates.
