Mahatma Gandhi had rightly said..
“A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work - he is the purpose of it. We are not doing him a favour by serving him. He is doing us a favour by giving us the opportunity to serve him.”

An approval and written order from your consultant doctor is required for the discharged process to be initiated. It is only after this does the actual billing process begins. The floor nurse will start the discharge formalities. This entails her liaising with all the hospital departments. Once the information has been collated, the nurse will ask a relative to go to the multitask counter with the discharge card. The front-office cross checks the information received from the ward with the concerned department. The discharge process takes up to one and half hours for completing all the formalities. Time taken for TPA will depend on how accurately the TPA form is filled up by you, additional amount if required and the medical case history. Discharged patients are requested not to stay in the hospital after the discharge formalities are over. Discharged patients are requested to show their settled bill to the security guard at the floor for exit. The security staffs have been instructed to politely ask for the same settled bill. We request you to make arrangements to vacate the room prior to 12noon. Staying beyond this time will necessitate an additional charge. Your co-operation is requested.
