Original review summary

The review says a real program funded free treatment for 75 children in India, but the circulating message was misleading: the grant was $200,000, not $15 million, and the program ran from May to September 2022. Children were to be assessed and referred by their treating heart specialists; the hospital said families should not apply by calling or visiting it directly.[S1]

Additional context

The review reports that the grant funded surgery for children with Tetralogy of Fallot and VSD, alongside training for cardiac intensive-care staff and fetal echocardiography workshops. [S1]
