MRI scans are crucial for the medical diagnosis procedure. From torn ligaments to tumors, Magnetic Resonance Imaging can do it with ease. The scans provide a thorough representation of the inside of organs. However, when it comes to health facilities, they are costly. MRI scans in India start from Rs. 2500. This gives an impetus to a lot of people to evade such tests. This not only reduces the standard of living but also reduces the wellness meter. So, if the medical diagnostic facilities start happening at an affordable cost, this will serve the economy as a whole. Hence, from December onwards, you can get your MRI scans done with Rs. 50 only.
MRI scans have never been cheaper
At Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, New Delhi, the people in financial need can get the MRI scan done in just Rs. 50. However, other people will have to spend a little more up to Rs. 800. This significantly reduces the price of this diagnostic procedure, for all income groups. According to the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee (DSGMC), a dialysis center will be set up at Guru Harkrishan Hospital on the Gurudwara premises. This shows the exemplary processes that Sikh Gurus started many years back.
The hospital will start functioning from next week onwards. The hospital will complete the entire dialysis procedure in just Rs. 600. DSGMC president Manjinder Singh Sirsa talked further about the costs of the machines. He told the reporters that the hospital received diagnostic machines worth Rs. 6 crores in the donation. These machines include four dialysis machines, and one machine for ultrasound, X-Ray, and MRI.

The doctors who will operate these machines are in full force formulating the pricing details in detail. This will cover which income group will pay more or less. The process of ultrasound and X-Ray can be availed for Rs. 150. The facility will open for the general public in the first week of December. This step says a lot about people who genuinely care or others. We don’t know whether Manjinder Singh Sirsa wants to further open such facilities in other parts of the country as well. However, in the coming December, the people of Delhi can avail of this opportunity.
