Health secretary J. Radhakrishnan said such schemes by private hospitals that took forward the State’s programmes, indicated its success. "People are in denial. Such services will give continuum of care and prevent out-of-pocket expenses for the elderly who are in denial. We miss the opportunity to treat them earlier," he said, adding that government and private sector healthcare providers should complement each other
P. Kuganantham, head of infectious diseases and social medicine at the hospital, said the scheme was started to reduce human suffering and extend arms to reach out to people at their home. There are plans to extend geriatric services as well as the State had the highest population of the elderly, next only to Kerala. The doctors would attend to patients at their homes, he added.
