Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation launches 50-bed free dialysis centre in Vashi

The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) has inaugurated a 50-bed free dialysis center in Vashi, marking Maharashtra’s largest facility of its kind. The center is designed to provide dialysis treatment at no cost to patients in need, removing financial barriers to essential kidney care. Located in Vivekananda Chavadi, the facility aims to cater to a large number of patients who previously struggled with affordability. NMMC officials emphasized the initiative’s role in improving public health access, particularly for low-income groups. The center’s inauguration aligns with broader efforts to expand healthcare infrastructure in Navi Mumbai. By offering free services, NMMC seeks to reduce the burden of chronic kidney disease on vulnerable populations while ensuring high-quality medical support. The facility is expected to serve as a model for similar public health initiatives across Maharashtra. Patients can now access dialysis without cost, improving treatment outcomes and reducing reliance on private healthcare providers.
