Speaking on the occasion Mr. Suresh Kumar Singhal said ESI stands for Employees’ State Insurance, a social security scheme in India that provides medical care and financial support to employees. But many industrial workforces are familiar with its facilities. A program like this will help create awareness about their rights and benefits. He appreciated the Health Committee of FTCCI for organising such a useful program.
Dr Shirishkumar G Chavan, Dean, ESIC Medical College & Hospital said ESIC Medical College and Hospital Sanathanagar is NABH Accredited. So also, it’s blood bank. It is the first ESI Blood Bank in the state to get NABH accreditation. We have medical colleges, four in the south and four in the North. We also have two dental, and two nursing colleges.

Our superspeciality hospital performed the first Renal Transplant in ESIC. We also performed ABO incompatible Renal Transplant. It also performed the first Open Heart Surgery in ESIC. It is also the first among ESICs to perform stereotactic Biopsy (STB) procedures for Brain Lesions. We also have another distinction of using Precision Medicine to decrease Organ Rejection. We were the first of its kind in ESIC in this regard, he shared.
He further added that ESIC has done 47, 295 dialysis procedures in the year 2023 as against 4559 in the year 2019.
Dr Abhijeet M. Dashetwar, Prof at ESIC Super Speciality Hospital spoke about their ambitious initiative called Touching Million Hearts, a comprehensive screening and health awareness program. It is a mission to screen IPs and their families for cardiac, kidney and brain ailments. People are spending their lifetime savings on diagnosis only. By the time it is diagnosed and treatment is required, they are broken. That is when they realise that they have an ESIC card and approach us. Instead, if they come even before they would save trauma and money, he added.
