Yes, you can approach the consumer forum or a civil court at your discretion.

Hope you have evidence of admission.

File consumer complaint for deficiency of service and claim for a substantive amount.

You May approach District Consumer Forum for alleged deficiency in service of hospital and claim compensation towards mental and physical agony caused to you but you have to prove the allegations/deficiency in service by cogent evidence.

Patient's brother would be considered as a consumer of the hospital is doubtful.
Kumar Doab (Expert) 01 November 2016
'Spent .............. 1.5 lacs on fractured surgery '


Patient fainted must have been recorded in patient history.

You must be having witnesses/evidence?
