CHANDIGARH, DEC 22

The Haryana Government has modified its instructions regarding medical reimbursement claims in which treatment is taken from any reputed or specialized hospital outside the approved list of hospitals.

          While stating this here today, a spokesman of the Finance Department said that hence forth the recommendation of the Health Department would imply only the grant of emergency certificate by the Civil Surgeon or  Chief  Medical Officer. There would be no requirement of further clarification or approval from the Health Department (Health Branch of Secretariat) and the medical bills would be reimbursed accordingly.

          However, there would be no change in other instructions in this regard which state that due permission or approval of the appropriate authority in the Administrative Department may be obtained before incurring such expenditure and there is adequate budget provisions.
