The Greater Accra Regional Hospital is debunking claims that its facility has been turned into a shelter for a fraudster jailed for 15 years.

In a statement on Tuesday, July, 25, the hospital described the reportage as “unfortunate” while vehemently rejecting the claims that have seized the trending spots on both social and traditional media platforms.

Setting the records straight, the management of the Greater Accra Regional Hospital indicated that the said David Aseye Tay was referred from the Nsawam Prison Clinic and subsequently admitted to the Greater Accra Regional Hospital on June 23, 2023.

According to the hospital, Mr. Aseye Tay, required a series of surgical procedures, for which he was duly admitted to the hospital.

“Following the completion of the procedures, he was discharged back into the custody of the officials who initially referred him. The said patient [David Aseye Tay] was discharged on July 21, 2023, after spending a total of 28 days on admission.

The hospital dared the media to verify from its electronic records systems if they have a case to believe the hospital’s narration lacks positive accuracy.

“It is important to highlight that our hospital utilizes electronic records systems, ensuring that patients’ medical records are kept in real-time. These records can be readily verified,” the statement stated.

“We are fully open to having any suspicions or doubts regarding this matter verified by the necessary legal authority. The doors of the Greater Accra Regional Hospital are always open for such verifications,” the statement added.
