Dear Dr. Nilesh,
Although the government has fixed the price for stents in India, the patients are not getting its benefit and most of the private hospitals and doctors are still charging them much more. So, the patients are not able to get the benefit and they still have to pay a huge amount for stent. I think there should be a strict law for this only then the patients will get benefited.
