Ref: CONFD/CGHS/2020-21 Dated:
25.07.2020
To
The Cabinet Secretary,
Government of India,
Rashtrapati Bhawan
New Delhi
Sub: - Grant of
Permission for treatment of COVID-19 infected Central Govt. Employees in all
Hospitals.
Sir,
You must be aware that the
health care system in west Bengal has broken down completely to face the spread
of pandemic due to COVID 19 virus. Along with common people Central Government
employees too are dying for unavailability of proper treatment in time.
Most unfortunately, most of
the CGHS empaneled hospitals are refusing admission under CGHS coverage,
employees were forced to borrow lakhs of rupees to get themselves and their
family members treated as the hospitals are charging exorbitant rates for such
treatment which is quite unexpected.
Moreover, regularly our
members are getting infected while in transit to and from office in public vehicles.
Hence, no. of COVID 19 patients amongst Central Government employees are
increasing on a regular basis. Some of our leaders from associated
organizations have already died and some are struggling to find out treatment
in proper hospitals.
In this circumstances we
would like to request you to kindly to cause instructions to Ministry of Health
and family welfare to issue instructions to all private hospitals throughout
the country authorised by the state Government for COVID treatment including the
isolation centres, makeshift hospitals etc. build by the sponsorship of State
Governments, municipal authorities or development authorities to allow
Central Government employees and their families for treatment under Central
Government Health Scheme, in addition to this a binding instruction should be
given to all CGHS empaneled hospitals not to refuse a single case of admission
of Central Government employees.
we fervently request you to
kindly help us by giving instruction to Ministry of Health and family welfare
to issue circular to the above narrated effect and oblige.
With regards,
Yours sincerely,
(R. N. Parashar)
