‘Wapda Hospital not providing sufficient medicines’
From Our Correspondent
FAISALABAD: Fesco Employees Power Union general secretary Iftikhar Ahmad has said that the Wapda Hospital has allegedly failed to provide sufficient medicines to the Fesco employees.
In a statement here on Friday, he said that if any medical officer of the hospital prescribed five medicines, then only one or two of them were provided from there. He said that the purchase slip was handed over to the employees and then they had to wait for months for reimbursement of their expenses for purchase of medicines. He said that the retired employees also repeatedly visited the hospital to get medicines but to no avail.
On a complaint, the hospital administration said that monthly deduction of an employee was Rs 500. Now, the medical allowance had increased up to Rs 1,600 per employee but deduction for medical facility was still Rs 500 and prices of medicines had also increased, therefore, it was impossible for the hospital to provide complete medicines to the Fesco employees.
Rana Wakeel, Abdul Jabbar, Abuzar Rehman, Rana Qasim, Khalil Noon, Ch Khalid, Saleem Iqbal, Masood Sipra, Shafiq Bhatti and others also expressed concerned over alleged unavailability of medicines at the hospital. They have demanded Fesco Chief Executive Officer Rashid Ahmad Aslam resolve the issue.
