A WELCOME STEP BY ECHS

Welcome Step : ECHS to issue medicines for 90 days for chronic ailments.

The ECHS Central Organisation has decided to issue directions for release of medicines for a period of three months to patients suffering from chronic ailments since issuance of medication for shorter periods was causing hardship to patients who had to visit ECHS establishments time and again to get the same re-issued.

These instructions have been circulated vide Letter No B/49762/AG/ECHS dated 13 May 2009 and have been disseminated to all Commands (including IN & IAF).

This facelity is already in vouge at ECHS NOIDA. However there is a snag to get medicines for more than 30 days, counter signatures of authorised docter are required which is time consuming and an unnecessory hindrence to discourage the patients. The need for counter signatures should be dispenced with. I D Sharma, NOIDA.
