GOOD NEWS FOR ECHS MEMBERS


GOOD NEWS FOR ECHS MEMBERS.

Meeting at ECHS HQ on 20 Aug 10
Dear Members,

1. An interaction meeting between users and ECHS mgt was held at ECHS HQ and attended by medical reps of the 3 HQ and others.

2. Following important decisions were taken:

·  Local Purchase for "A" and "B" type polyclinic is incresed from Rs50,000/ to Rs 2.00               Lacs per month.

·  For "C" and "D" type it is increased to Rs1 lac.

·  If a medicine is NA in a polyclinic then the ESM can buy the same from market and he will be reimbursed. There is no financial limit cap for this. This is over and indicated above.

·  Outsourcing the hospitals payments to an External Agency. The agency will pay all bills etc to the empanelled hospitials and would sort out it's own payement with the ECHS. Basically ensuring that the hospitials gets their money in time.

·  If the number of patients in a Polyclinic increase by 30 per day then an additional MO is automatically authorised for hiring.

·  Nominate chemists as distributors who will supply directly to the polyclinics and ECHS would pay these chemists. This will increase the medicines availability. No
dependecy on our existing Armed Forces Medical Stores.

Pls see IESM latest NEWS on http://www.iesm.org . News Update every hour
These interaction meetings would be held every 2 months...

Regards,

  6. poly clinics normally located near army cantt/sta hq. Ex servicemen settled at remote places, away from polyclinic finds difficulty to avail echs facility. It is suggested to avail ECHS facility at any empannelled hosp directly, as CGHS members are availing at present. Procedure for exservicemen needs to be simplified for routine investigation also ,such as; health checkup,blood/urine test,dental,eye etc. T P Kurup Ex Army.
