Sansad Tv

What are the legal rights of a patient in India? Can a hospital deny records? Is informed consent mandatory? What remedies are available in cases of negligence, overcharging, privacy breach, unsafe food, fake medicines, HIV discrimination, mental healthcare denial, or organ-related irregularities?

In this special Sansad TV discussion, Prof. (Dr.) Sanjeev Sinha, HOD, Department of General Medicine, AIIMS New Delhi, and Abhishek Atrey, Senior Advocate, Supreme Court, explain the rights every patient and family should know. The episode explores medical ethics, legal accountability, patient dignity, hospital responsibility, and the laws that protect citizens in healthcare.

This is a useful public-interest conversation for every viewer, because health is not only about treatment, but also about information, consent, records, privacy, fairness, and justice.
