A social media post that went viral not only landed the person who created it in trouble, but also forced the government to initiate steps to check the menace of bogus pathology laboratories, and put in place a standard operating procedure for this diagnostic business.
The development took place in the legislative council after a question raised by MLC Aniket Tatkare, who informed the house, that Dr Yogesh Mainkar, an ayurvedic practitioner in Sangli, had claimed that four laboratories had given him four different reports of the same diabetic person’s blood sample. The MLC demanded that the laboratories in question and all other such units in the district be verified and action taken against them, because the varied reports could lead to improper/fatal treatment.
