SC: Make COVID-19 Tests Free, Even in Private Laboratories - (09 Apr 2020)

LAW OF MEDICINE

Supreme Court has directed the Government to issue appropriate orders immediately for free testing for coronavirus even in private hospitals and laboratories, saying the current charges – though capped at Rs 4,500 – will be beyond the reach of the poor. The Court said it would examine later whether private entities, carrying out the tests free of cost, would be entitled to reimbursement.
