Heart hospital's gesture

Our Bureau

BANGALORE: Narayana Hrudayalaya, which introduced telemedicine service in the city, has taken the link across the shores to Malaysia to provide counselling and necessary clinical advice to poor heart patients in that country.

The international telemedicine programme for heart patients launched recently was jointly organised by the Global Organisation of People of India Origin (GOPIO) and Narayana Hrudayalaya.

The telemedicine programme will provide heart surgeries free of costs to poor people in Malaysia, where complex coronary interventions are prohibitive in costs. The international will also open up vistas for offering healthcare to South-East Asia.

Narayana Hrudayalaya has already been conducting national telemedicine facility to Kolkata, Tripura, Siliguri, Bankura and parts of Karnataka, Dr. Devi Shetty, founder of Narayana Hrudayalaya said.
