The record
Written by software from the 2 reports below. The points restate them; where one says why it matters, that is Prism's reading, not a reported fact.
- A fire at the RIMS Adilabad hospital prompted the Telangana Government Doctors Association to highlight systemic issues in public health facilities.
- Staffing shortages and delayed payments from the Aarogyasri health scheme have caused chronic maintenance failures in critical areas like electrical grids and building structures.

What to watch next
