Patients Could Not Afford the Costly Injection
While the injection was crucial, some patients could not afford to buy it. Each dose costs Rs. 1,343, making it very difficult for poor patients to access.
Dr. Ramchandani Took Action
After learning about their financial struggles, Dr. Ramchandani identified five such patients and personally bought the injections for them. He then called them to his one-rupee clinic and administered the injections himself.
