Dear Editor,
The procedure envisaged in obtaining cashless facility through TPA for hospital treatment is cumbersome in case one has to rush to the hospital sometimes even in a semi or unconscious stage. The rigmarole could be avoided if TPA issues an Identity card to those covered under the scheme and the only requirement to be produced is the Doctor's certificate giving the nature of illness requiring hospitalization.

On receipt of this TPA issue the 'Guarantee payment' certificate required by the hospital. Such ID cards are in vogue in RBI.
