Supreme Court issues notice to the Centre Government seeking response on the plea capping of prices of RT-PCR Tests

 

 

New Delhi, November 24, 2020: A plea which seeks for the caping of the prices of RT-PCR tests, used to test suspected COVID patients, at Rs. 400, instead of the varying rates across the country was filed before the Supreme Courtof India on Tuesday.

 

The Supreme Court Bench headed by Chief Justice of India SA Bobde heard the submissions of Advocate Ajay Agarwal, who had filed the plea, and sought for a response from the Centre and the Health Ministry. Agarwal contended before the Bench that various hospitals across were charging exorbitant prices for the RT-PCR tests, whereas the actual cost of the test was merely Rs. 200.

 

The Bench took the argument into consideration and issued notice.

 

The matter has been tagged with a similar plea by Advocate Sachin Jain, which seeks for nationwide cost-related regulations for treatment of Coronavirus patients at private and corporate hospitals.
