OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Regarding tests investigations at private hospitals/diagnostic laboratories / imaging centres empanelled under CGHS.
The undersigned is directed to refer to the Office Memorandum of even no. dated 1st January, 2013 [click here] on the above subject wherein it has been provided under Para 3 that the serving government employees
/ CGHS beneficiaries shall submit medical prescription in original
while claiming reimbursement of expenses incurred on diagnostic tests
and investigations, from their office. Keeping in view the inconvenience
and difficulties faced by the serving employees / CGHS beneficiaries in
submission of prescription in original, it has been decided to relax
the above condition and to allow a self attested photocopy of the
medical prescription to claim reimbursement of medical expenses incurred
on getting diagnostic tests / investigations carried out from a CGHS
empanelled hospital / diagnostic laboratory / imaging centre on a valid
prescription issued by a CGHS Medical Officer / Govt. Specialist,
without a permission letter issued from the Department concerned.
