THE PATHETIC CONDITION OF ECHS POLYCLINIC TIRUNELVELI
The new building of ECHS Tirunelveli was inaugurated only
on 03 Sep 2017. Within two years of its
inauguration, the cealing of the building cracked twice and injured One
Polyclinic Staff and one Visiting patient. (one Miss.Sorna, Lab Technician and
Ex.JWO Peter (Patient)
This is the condition of a new building constructed by
MES. Utter negligence has been shown for
the electrical wiring. Very poor
earthing damages the costly instruments.
The Air conditioners are not working properly. The waiting hall is congested. Only one toilet for the 150 patients visiting
daily. The main entrance gate is at the turning point of a main road,
prone to accidents.
The floor of the clinic is slippery, some aged patients
are falling down on the waiting hall frequently. Please look at the slope (in the photo) at
the entrance of the clinic. This is a disgrace to the MES of the Navy.
The Naval Officers
at INS Kattabomman and at Vizakapatnam have given utter disregard to the
welfare of Ex-servicemen. Let the Navy
hand over the Polyclinic to Army control
under Trivandrum. The Station Headquarters
INS Kattabomman is shown utter disregard to the Ex-servicemen. They may please hand over the clinic to Army
Control for better management and day to day adminstration.
Some photographs are published.

There are lot of problems with the ECHS System. Most of the good empanelled
hospitals in Chennai (Miot, Global) are going out of ECHS system, because of
bill payment and other problems. Coimbatore Hospitals totally avoiding ECHS Scheme.
The patients are made to run between ECHS at MH and MH at Eekattuthangal and other hospitals.
The movement of the patients in a large city like Chennai is very costly and painful.
Sometimes the members feel to pay and take treatment in any hospital instead of
running up and down for free treatment.
Any email complaint given to the MD ECHS never gets reply. Most of the medicines are
not available at the clinic. Local purchase also restricted to great extent.
In spite of paying a Lumpsum amount and monthly Rs.1000 to the scheme, the members
have to beg for better medicine and treatment.
THE PERFORMANCE OF ECH SCHEME IS NOT GOOD
IT NEEDS IMMEDIATE IMPROVEMENT
OR SOME ALTERNATIVE METHOD OF TREATMENT.
