This hospital has telemedicine facility in order to communicate data and other details from other hospitals. For the first time in South Asia the valves in the heart can be treated without surgery. An instrument worth Rs 5.5 Crores has been imported from Holland for this purpose. The ex-rays taken by the patient can be viewed by the doctors sitting in their cabins. The patients can also download this x-ray their mobile phones for their future reference.

The food, the preparation of which has been outsourced to a private agency, is hygienically packed in disposable plates.
From the present 400 beds, the strength will be increased up to 500 beds. Waiting chairs have been put up on every floor, while LED sign boards will be installed soon.
Seventy imported beds, which are operated electro-hydraulically and have digital touch screens, are in place at the intensive care units.
