PESHAWAR, March 12: Several doctors have increased their consultation fee in violation of the government’s directives, a survey revealed. The NWFP government had issued a notification to the teaching and district headquarters hospitals two years ago asking professors/consultants and specialists to charge Rs250 and Rs150 respectively as consultation fee.
The notification was issued on Oct 17, 2003 after the cabinet had approved the rates. But some of the consultants at the Dabgari Gardens, instead of reducing their fee in accordance with the notification, increased it from Rs300 to Rs500.
