Key Highlights Doctor asks patient to pay 'bribe' for operation Incident occurred at SMS Hospital in Jaipur, Rajasthan The doctor in the video is identified as Navendu

Jaipur: In a shocking incident, a doctor at Rajasthan's SMS Hospital allegedly threatened a patient after he did not get his share of 'cut' for an implant in the patient's leg. The video of the incident has gone viral on social media.

The doctor in the video is identified as Navendu. He is posted as a resident doctor at SMS Hospital in Jaipur. The video purportedly shows the doctor demanding money from the patient as he had not been paid his cut by the medical shop owner for the implant.

As the doctor demanded money, the family members of the patient could be heard arguing that they have a 'Bhamashah Card' and treatment of every kind is free under the scheme.

"Don't try to act smart. If you don't pay, I will take out the plate. This plate is not covered under Bhamashah card. Because of you my other patients are stuck," the doctor could be heard saying in the video.

The SMS hospital has a policy for not making patients buy any implant from outside. But the rod doctors implanted in the patient's leg was bought from outside and the doctor was asking for his cut or threatening to remove back the rod.

The superintendent of the hospital has now ordered an inquiry.

10-year-old dies in Bareilly hospital, father says doctors wanted bribe for treatment

In a similar incident in July last year, a 10-year-old boy died allegedly after the on-duty doctors denied to treat the child. The victim was having high fever when his father brought him to Uttar Pradesh’s Bareilly district hospital. The child’s father alleged that the doctors asked for a bribe to treat the kid, which he was unable to pay.

The father, who was identified as Dharampal, said, “The doctors mistreated me, demanded Rs 10,000 for the treatment and the nurses asked for Rs 500.” The boy was identified as a resident of Bala Kishanpur village in Badaun district. He was referred from Badaun district hospital to Bareilly district hospital as his condition was getting critical. According to allegations made by the father, when the doctors refused treatment, the boy was referred to Lucknow.

"After they referred my son to Lucknow, the ambulance did not reach on time. It was five hours late,” said the boy's father. Following the death of his child, the father filed an FIR against the doctors and nurses of the Bareilly district hospital.
