Such patients can approach the hospital in the network and follow the guidelines below:

  • A new Health Insurance identity card with biometrics is being issued to all those members who have been holding the smart cards in the earlier scheme. Till such time new cards are issued the public can use the earlier smart (Health) cards
  • This card should be shown at the Assistance Counter established at the empanelled hospital.
  • After due verification of the details and authenticating the identity of the patient by the Liaison Officer, the necessary Pre-authorisation request for cashless facility will be submitted by the DMO of the hospital.
