Coimbatore: With the second Covid-19 wave subsiding and the test positivity rate dropping to 2%, people have become more confident to step into hospitals again. This is not only to accompany or visit the loved ones, but for elective surgical procedures that involve several hours or days of hospitalization. Most of the major multi and single specialty hospitals say they have begun to perform elective surgeries almost 80% to 100% of their pre-Covid capacities.
For the past one month, the Tamil Nadu Health Systems Project has been approving insurance claims for elective surgical procedures as well. This, along with the falling number of Covid-19 patients, easily available oxygen and drop in hospital infections, has better positioned the hospitals to perform elective surgeries.
