A.Hi,
The CIC had recommended the central and state government to “force” private hospitals to give medical records of patients on a daily basis and be transparent about it. It also quoted Section 2 of the RTI Act under which it is mandatory for private hospitals to provide information as treatment comes under “services”.
If you find my answer helpful then kindly rate me.
