However, as the patients were later identified — they were regular patients — the department has issued instructions for refund of money. The department officials stated that the facility had also been made free for patients visiting Government Medical College. However, the fact that the state government has made the dialysis facility free for all patients, this, too, has created confusion among officials, as in the first instance they felt that the service was made free for poor patients only.
