RIMS Ranchi approves Rs 5000 aid for deceased patient's kin

Ranchi:The Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) will now provide immediate financial assistance of Rs 5,000 to families of patients who die during treatment. The decision was approved during a Governing Body meeting held on Thursday, chaired by retired Justice Amareshwar Sahay. Unlike earlier procedures, where payments were often delayed due to bank transfer processes, the amount will now be disbursed instantly via UPI at the hospital itself. According to hospital officials, the projected annual expenditure for this initiative is around Rs 7 crore.

The governing body also approved a salary hike for Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANMs) and General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) staff, along with an increased monthly stipend of Rs 30,000 for MBBS and BDS interns, bringing it in line with top-tier institutions such as AIIMS. In a bid to bolster medical education and meet the growing demand for qualified doctors, RIMS has reapplied to the Medical Council of India (MCI) to increase its MBBS seat intake from 180 to 250.
