Text of MH & FW. O.M No. S-12015/1/85-CGHS (P) dt. 8/7/1985
CGHS Facilities to the Family Members of Central Government Servant no residing with him/her.
The undersigned is directed to say that
in accordance with the instructions contained in this ministry’s O.M.
No. 6(1)-1/54-H dated 1/5/1954 only those family members of a Central
Government employee who are wholly dependent and are residing, with
him/her can avail CGHS facilities.
It has come to notice that difficulties
are being faced by such family members, who are wholly dependent on
government servants but are residing permanently in some other city in
an area covered by the Scheme, as they are not allowed to avail CGHS
facilities.
In order to mitigate the hardship it has
been decided that family members who are wholly dependent upon the
Central Government employee but who are residing in another city in an
area covered under the Scheme will also be eligible for availing of CGHS
facilities.
In such cases, the issuing authority
after confirming that the family members of the Central Government
employee residing in some other city are actually residing in an area
covered under the scheme, will issue two separate CGHS cards-one for the
Central Government employee and the other for his/her family members.
2. The CGHS cards for the family members
will be issued by the concerned Ministries/Departments for a period not
exceeding one year at a time and renewable thereafter for similar
periods after obtaining a certificate from the Government servant that
his family is residing in the same city/area. The card should be signed
by an officer not below the rank and status of an Under Secretary to the
Government of India.
3. A quarterly statement showing brief
particulars of the cards issued should be sent to the Director, CGHS in
the proforma enclosed for the quarters ending March, June, September and
December each year. Nil statements need not be furnished.
4. These instructions will not be
applicable to any other category of person(s) who are not Central
Government employees but who have been allowed to avail CGHS facilities.
