CGHS – CS(MA) Rules – Medical Reimbursement – Clarification

Clarification on Medical Reimbursement of Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS).

The Department of Health and Family Welfare has published various orders regarding the empanelled hospitals and the revision of package rates on its website regularly. Still there is lot of problems with some of the empanelled hospitals while getting treatment. They did not bother about the package rates and they used some other medical words in discharge summary of the particular treatments.

Hence the amount of reimbursement is reduced or the total claim is ignored. The reimbursement will be made on the basis of the medical bills and reports as in the discharge summary. The pertinent package rates has been searched by the competent authority to sanction his claim of medical treatment according to given reports by the employee.

Department of Health and Family Welfare issued a detailed clarification on 30.09.2011, “if CGHS rate is not available for any procedure / investigation / category (say super-specialty) in any CGHS covered city, the CGHS rate notified for such procedure / investigation / category for the nearest CGHS city or the rate notified under CGHS, Delhi, whichever is lower shall be applicable as CGHS rate for such procedure / investigation / category for that city”.

Posting of husband and wife at the same station.

Concerning the posting at the same place of husband and wife who are working in Government service, the transfer issues have been raised in Parliament on several occasions. In 1980s these demands began to show its seriousness, because the percentage of women employees were increased in joining the Government services. The Central Government also observed this issue from various forums, a circular had been issued by the Department of Social Welfare in Feb 1976 to all Head of Departments to give serious consideration to the requests of posting of husband and wife at the same station. In order to that order, lot of women employees started to send their request to transfer at the place where their husbands are posted.

The Central Government gave its utmost importance to this issue and as far as possible and within the constraints of adminstrative feasibility, the husband and wife should be posted at the same station to enable them to lead a normal family life and to ensure the education and welfare of thier children. The Department of Personnel and Training issued an OM on 3.4.86, in accordance with the guidelines and instructions in the order given by the Government, all cadre controlling authorities should consider such requests with the utmost sympathy.

The Department of Personnel and Training issued various office memorandums regarding this matter from time to time. The motive of the Government on the petitioners, said in the orders repeatedly, to give utmost importance attached to the enhancement of women’s status in all walks of life and to enable them to lead a normal family life as also to ensure the education and welfare of the children.

Till recently, the persmin has issued total of six orders pertaining the above subject on its website. After implementation of the 6th CPC, the last order has been issued on 30.09.2009. The order said that “On the basis of the 6th CPC reprot, Government servants have already been allowed the facility of Child Care Leave which is admissible till the children attain 18 years of age”. The consolidated guidelines concerened this subject has been provided in the OM dated 12.06.1997. The consolidated guidelines has been amended and published in the last order after implementation of 6th CPC.

In the main guidelines, ”The husband & wife, if working in the same Department and if the required level of post is available, should invariably be posted together in order to enable them to lead a normal family life and look after the welfare of their children especially till the children attain 18 years of age. This will not apply on appointment under the central Staffing Scheme. Where only wife is a Govt. servant, the above concessions would be applicable to the Govt. servant. Complaints are sometimes received that even if posts are available in the station of posting of the spouse, the administrative authorities do not accommodate the employees citing administrative reasons. In all such cases, the cadre controlling authority should strive to post the employee at the station of the spouse and in case of inability to do so, specific reasons, therefor, may be communicated to the employee”.

We have made a table of orders for your kind consideration…

S.No.	O.M. No.	O.M. Date	Subject	Link

Ways to Control Anger

Greatest thing a human can achieve is not money or fame but it’s the control of your anger. Anger is like a speeding train which is without brakes and can lead to accidents in the form of broken relationship whether that anger is on your friend, boss, colleague or anybody. Given below are some of the ways to control the anger –

1. The first and foremost thing which you should do is to move away, if you are having a heated argument with other person as more often not there is no winner in such arguments and moving away does not mean you are losing the argument.

2. When you are angry you should drink a glass of water or cold drink so that your anger cools down with that glass of water.

3. One should try to concentrate on other things rather than thinking about the reason for anger as will only aggravate the anger.

4. If you are angry and not at office but at home than go outside and play outdoor games or indulge yourself in anything which makes you happy like gardening, watching television, cooking etc….This will not only help you in controlling the anger but also it will make you happy.

5. If you cannot control your anger than the best thing is to go at some lonely place and shout, this will ensure that your anger is out and then you will be able to think more clearly and handle the situation better.

6. Meditation and Yoga are also helpful in controlling anger as a person doing meditation has better control over mind, and a person who has control over mind can easily control the anger.
