Big hospital chains have come under the CCI scanner over inflated prices of medicines and medical devices. Network18’s MoneyControl has exclusively learnt that CCI has demanded answers from Max Healthcare, Fortis Healthcare and Apollo Hospitals.
The CCI action comes after an elaborate investigation that began in 2018.
