After successfully launching RSBY in all Secondary hospitals, Health department of West Bengal today decided to provide RSBY services in all BPHCs and Rural Hospitals having more than 10 functional beds. More than 300 hospitals will be enlisted.
The model of Rogi Kalyan Samity RSK at secondary hospitals have been very successful in all Government hospitals.
