Corporate hospitals across the country have threatened to stop cashless
treatment to lakhs of central government employees from January 1.
Protesting against ‘unviable’ rates being given to them under the CGHS
(Central Government Health Scheme), the Association of Healthcare
Providers (India) has said that it will give three months time to the
Government to revise the rates.
“After that we will stop all cashless services at our hospitals. We will
however continue to provide services on paying cash (at the hospital
rates). They can seek reimbursement later,’’ the association leaders
said.
Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, they said that the
government should come out with a scientific method to arrive at proper
packages for various treatments.
