AN UNIQUE CONCEPT OF SELF SUFFICIENCY IN HEALTHCARE BY SELF PARTICIPATION

Shushrusha Citizens’ Co-operative Hospital Limited is an unique innovative Health Care Scheme where citizens participate by becoming shareholders. Our aim is to offer cost effective care to the Shareholders with concession in charges as an right for their share holding. The membership ensures “Onetime participation with life time benefit”. Special feature is that health care is easily accessible with availability of facilities at an affordable cost with accountability to ensure that patient’s interest is of prime importance. The institution is known as “Shushrusha Citizen’ Co-operative Hospital Limited”.

The Institution was inaugurated by then Prime Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi in 1967. Next year we will enter 50th year of our working. The hospital has facilities to offer for emergency care, routine illness and superspeciality care. The institution has ISO 2015 Certification and NABH Safe-I Certification.

The cost of treatment in the hospital is 20 to 25% less compared to corporate hospitals. In addition a member gets benefit of about 10 to 25% in various facilities on every visit he or she makes to the hospital. The fees charged for major operations are fixed for the members. The membership covers member, spouse and two children upto the age of 21 years. This is a onetime membership and does not have to be renewed annually.

A special provision is made to treat very poor patients free of cost and low income group with 50% concession. It serves the community with responsibility. The hospital also runs camps for blood donation, cardiac care, arthritis care, prevention of blindness, neurologial disorders etc. To help the senior citizen members the institution offers free medical check up to Shareholders above 70 years. Shushrusha Hospital has state-of-the-art Intensive Care Unit, High Dependency Unit, Cathlab & Cardiac O.T. Its Artificial Kidney Dialysis unit runs in three shifts.

The hospital has now commissioned one more unit having 150 beds in the suburbs of Mumbai based on same principle. Membership is valid in both our hospitals. This novel health care scheme in our opinion can be one of the health providing mechanisms which can be put in place at all towns and cities since it is run by the community and for the community involving local physicians and citizenry.

Since this is a concept where health care is taken by the institution of the people for the people, by the people, it can certainly solve problems of healthcare delivery to a great extent. The hospital is run by a Board of Directors, elected among the society consisting of doctors, non doctors and also citizens from various categories elected amongst the shareholders. A truly democratic institution which offers self sufficiency in healthcare by self participation - One time investment life time benefit.
