The Joint Venture Pharmacy is also one of the products of the state government partnerships with corporate bodies.

The idea of setting up the outlet was conceived primarily to enable the hospital's patients procure quality drugs that may not be available at the government owned unit i.e. free health window, round the clock and at affordable prices.

Thus, the unit helps in reducing the stress that patients and their relatives always encounter whenever they have to look for drugs that may not be available at the government owned unit, occasionally.

The unit is under the supervision of a director, who oversees the activities of the outfit directly. However the activities of the unit are under the overall supervision of the hospital's Chief Medical Director.
