Central Government has
not issued any guidelines to State Governments to provide medical treatment to
the Central Government Pensioners who have valid CGHS Cards. Central government
pensioners having valid CGHS cards, which are issued on payment of subscription
as prescribed from time to time, are eligible to avail hospitalization care at
any of the private hospitals empanelled under CGHS and central government
hospitals. Further, provision for availing treatment at hospitals empanelled
under Central Services(Medical Attendance) Rules, 1944/ Employees Contributory
Health Scheme by CGHS pensioner beneficiaries and their dependent eligible
family members already exists under the scheme.
No permission is
required for treatment in any State-run hospitals and any expenditure incurred
for treatment at such hospitals is reimbursed under CGHS as per extant rules.
The Minister of State
(Health and Family Welfare), Sh Ashwini Kumar Choubey stated this in a written
reply in the Rajya Sabha here today
