Cross-subsidization

Sadguru Netra Chikitsalaya is situated in Chitrakoot, a remote area bordering Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh characterized by a lack of health care providers. Despite this, Sadguru Netra Chikitsalava performs the highest number of eye surgeries in the country. The unique aspect of this hospital model is that even though 50 percent of its services are provided at free or subsidized rates, the hospital is viable and able to sustain its growth.
