You can send a complaint in writing to the Medical Superintendent (M.S) of the concerned Hospital with a copy to Chief Medical Officer (CMO)/ Civil Surgeon of his area.

Hii, Yes, you have grounds to file a case against the diagnostic centre. This would fall under the category of medical negligence. The amount of compensation you can claim depends on the severity of the misdiagnosis, harm caused to your mother-in-law, and any financial losses like medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
