The undersigned is directed to refer to the Office Memorandum of even no. dated 1st January, 2013 on the above subject wherein it has been provided under Para 3 that the serving government employees / CGHS beneficiaries shall submit medical prescription in original while claiming reimbursement of expenses incurred on diagnostic tests and investigations, from their office. Keeping in view the inconvenience and difficulties faced by the serving employees / CGHS beneficiaries in submission of prescription in original, it has been decided to relax the above condition and to allow a self attested photocopy of the medical prescription to claim reimbursement of medical expenses incurred on getting diagnostic tests / investigations carried out from a CGHS empanelled hospital / diagnostic laboratory / imaging centre on a valid prescription issued by a CGHS Medical Officer / Govt. Specialist, without a permission letter issued from the Department concerned. 2.The Serving beneficiaries will not require any permission from their Department for getting the diagnostic tests / investigations carried out in a CGHS empanelled private hospital /diagnostic laboratory / imaging centre in respect of investigations for which CGHS rates are available. They will get the prescribed tests done on payment basis and claim reimbursement from their Office. However, the serving employees of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare are eligible for credit facility from the CGHS empanelled private hospitals / diagnostic laboratories and imaging centres in terms of this Ministry's OM No. Rec.1- 008/Gr./CGHS/Delhi/CGHS (P) dated 10.06.2008. 3.The medical prescription issued by a CGHS Medical Officer / Government Specialist prescribing diagnostic tests / investigations shall be treated as valid for a single use within a period of two weeks from the date of prescription. However the medical prescription shall remain valid beyond two weeks for undertaking diagnostic tests / investigations if specifically prescribed by the CGHS doctor / Government Specialist about the date or period by which the prescribed tests are to be conducted for a routine check up or follow up treatment. The medical prescription would require revalidation or issue of a fresh prescription from the prescribing CGHS doctor/Government Specialist for getting the prescribed tests done after expiry of the validity period of two weeks or as prescribed by the CGHS doctor / Govt Specialist, as the case may be. sd/- [V.P..Singh] Deputy Secretary to the Government of India Source : www.msotransparent.nic.in/cghsnew/index.asp [http://msotransparent.nic.in/writereaddata/cghsdata/mainlinkfile/File578.pdf]

Benefits from Breastfeeding

Benefits from Breastfeeding     * Breastfeeding makes you feel good, the hormones produced during nursing have an endorphin effect  giving you a relaxed feeling.     * You have a great excuse to sit down and relax.....     * You can nurse while sleeping...nursing moms get more rest than formula feeding moms.     * Breastfeeding saves moms about 7 hours a week off their feet.     * No screaming baby in the middle of the night waiting on the formula to heat up.     * It's the only time you can ever lose weight without dieting or exercise!     * Breastfeeding is more convenient, when traveling, all you need is to take diapers, the milk is always available, sterile, and the right temperature.     * During times of disaster,  you don't have to worry about finding formula.     * Breastfed babies smell great....spit ups don't stain, or smell, and poopie diapers are not offensive...(until solids are introduced)     * Breastfed babies know their moms and will never confuse them with a sitter.     * The strong bond developed with nursing is much more intense.     * There is no feeling to describe the child suckling at your breast and letting go to give you a big smile; and knowing that the  growth of your baby came from what your body produced! Wow! What a feeling!     * The satisfaction of knowing you are giving your baby the best start in life!     * Breastmilk taste great! Sweet tasting! Variations in taste according to foods moms eats.  Have you ever tasted formula? Ugh!     * Breastfeeding requires the use of only one arm....you can do other things while breastfeeding, (except cooking and driving)     * Many, many more benefits, too numerous to list!!!
