It's like AIIMS of Himachal Pradesh. A huge load of patients on a few doctors. Certain doctors are only available on specific days so it's really tough to get facilities like private hospitals. But it is one of the best hospitals available in Himachal Pradesh.

Premier tertiary care set up ( hospital) situated in the capital city Shimla. Most of the superspeciality branches are functional here.
Definitely increasing workload in opds is challenging to meet patients expectations. Currently most of the tests are available free for almost all patients APL, BPL.
Himcare & Ayushman Bharat insurance services are available at this health care setup.
