Hyderabad: Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy here on Thursday said the State government was taking necessary steps for digitization of the health profile of every individual in the State.
Speaking after inaugurating Renova Cancer Centre at Durgabai Deshmukh Hospital in Vidyanagar, he said the State government’s two top priorities were – health and education. Owing to non-availability of health records, people were subjected to health tests frequently whenever they visit a hospital and thus the State government is initiating steps to digitize the health profile of every individual.
Underlining the need for ensuring affordable treatment for cancer, he said the treatment for cancer has become a huge burden for the poor people and several people were facing problems because of it. Revanth Reddy appreciated Durgabai Deshmukh Hospital for the starting cancer centre and added that he would positively look into the proposals put forward by the hospital.
