Hello,


RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat kidney stones, and PMJAY (Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana), also known as Ayushman Bharat, is a government health insurance scheme providing financial protection to economically weaker sections for medical treatments. I can certainly help guide you on how to book an appointment for RIRS surgery under the PMJAY scheme with Dr. Chinta Ramakrishna at Vedanta Hospital.


You can book a consultation with Dr Chinta Rama Krishna through HexaHealth and discuss your eligibility for RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) under the PM-JAY (Ayushman Bharat) scheme. Dr Chinta Rama Krishna is a senior nephrologist with 25+ years of experience and is associated with Vedanta Hospital, Mangalagiri.
