Today, the Karnataka government announced that the tender process for building a new Employees’ State Insurance (ESI) hospital in Udupi district is underway. The project seeks to deliver comprehensive medical facilities to employees covered under the ESI scheme.
The ESI scheme, established in 1952, provides health care and cash benefits to workers and their dependents. The proposed hospital will serve as a dedicated centre for treatment, diagnostics and rehabilitation, catering specifically to the needs of insured workers in the region.
Experts say the new facility will reduce the burden on existing district hospitals and improve accessibility for remote workers, potentially boosting employment confidence in Udupi’s growing industrial sectors. Source: Google News – Udupi District.
