ID CARDS FOR CASHLESS HOSPITALISATION FACILITY


Dear Mr Gangadharan,

I have addressed a letter to ZM,SC Zone,Hyderabad for arranging issue of ID by TPA or issue of Certificate by LIC for Cashless Hospitalisation under Mediclaim Scheme with copy to Chairman & ED(Personnel) as per attachment.
I suggest that the various Associations of Pensioners can take up the matter through the Divisional/Zonal levels with similar letters so that the process can get expedited.
Kind regards.

Dear Sir,

Re: Issue of ID Cards for Cashless Hospitalisation Facility under Mediclaim vide New India Assce Co Circular dt 2/5/2014

We invite your kind attention to the Circular dt 2/5/2014 issued by New India Assurance Company Ltd which is attached.
As per para 3(c) of the said circular cashless hospitalization (even in its restricted form) requires 
the retired employee to submit ID card of patient issued by TPA (M/s Medi Assist) and also any 
photo ID cards such as PAN etc.
Para 3(d) states that in case TPA’s ID Card is not available, the cashless scheme request will be 
processed by TPA on the basis of Certificate issued by the OS Dept of LIC with name of retired 
employee/beneficiary claimant,S.R.No of the employee and Sum Insured.
So far neither the TPA has issued any card to the members covered by the scheme nor has LIC 
issued any Certificate to members /beneficiaries. Without the TPA ID or Certificate issued by the 
Corporation, the very purpose of the Cashless Hospitalisation Scheme will not be served and in 
times of emergency, retired employees will be put to undue hardships.
Kindly therefore pursue with the TPA for immediate issue of IDs to members or arrange for 
immediate issue of Certificates to all retirees/beneficiaries covered under the Scheme. 

Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
C H Mahadevan
