The treatment of breast cancer of my wife is going on in AIIMS, New Delhi and an Inj Trastuzumab is administered pre and post operation. The cost of five inj. In pre operation period paid but my TPA who is under UIIC is denying the reimbursement for post operation period. A huge conversation verbal and in writing has been done. My oncologist has also given a certificate that this inj. Is given for parenteral chemotherapy but no respond. I should go to consumer court or Ombudsman office. If there is another way, please advise.

It is very critical situation and we also facing same problem. I raised this issue to many govt institute and ngo several time in last 6 months but no one come forward. I mailed to NPPA, NCG, Cancer care india, AIDAN, Dr Harsh Vardhan health minister so many times but nobody help us in this regard. I suggest to you go head to insurance ombudsman meanwhile you buy this drug from direct pharmacy @23000/- against mrp of 58900.
Is your hospital allowing injection purchased from outside ??
