MCR TIMS Sanathnagar sees 600 outpatients daily, surgeries likely to begin soon
The MCR TIMS hospital in Hyderabad is currently serving 600 outpatients daily and is preparing to launch surgical services following the sterilization of its critical facilities. The hospital's executive council has approved new service rules, tariff structures, and infrastructure upgrades to support its transition into a premier medical institution.
Why it matters
Expanding surgical capacity at a major public hospital improves healthcare accessibility for the local population and reduces the burden on other state medical facilities.
The Dr. Marri Chenna Reddy Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (MCR TIMS) Sanathnagar in Hyderabad is receiving around 600 outpatients every day, with surgeries expected to commence soon after the sterilisation of its intensive care units (ICUs), operation theatres and critical medical equipment is completed.
MCR TIMS director Narendra Kumar shared the update during the inaugural meeting of the hospital’s executive council, chaired by Health Minister C. Damodar Raja Narasimha, on Tuesday.
Dr. Kumar said the hospital is currently providing necessary medical services to the outpatients and has also begun conducting day-care procedures. “ICUs, operation theatres, diagnostic equipment and other critical medical devices are undergoing comprehensive sterilisation as part of preparations for starting surgical services,” he added.
