While raising the objection, patients pointed to how India does not issue disability certificates for metal ion poisoning, which is the main cause of the ASR implants being termed faulty.

New Delhi:
Over 50 patients who got faulty Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip implants manufactured by Johnson & Johnson have raised objections on at least 10 counts on the compensation package determined by the government.

Detailing their objections, last week, the patients, part of the Hip Implant Patients Support Group, submitted a letter before the expert committee headed by Dr R K Arya, Director, Sports Injury Centre, Safdarjung Hospital, that’s examining the compensation to Indian patients. According to the formula arrived at by the government in November last year, each of the victims was to get damages between Rs 20 lakh and Rs 1.22 crore, depending on risk factors, disability and age. Earlier, on January 9, the patients had presented their preliminary objections before the committee.
