Linking of CGHS Card number with Aadhaar is purely on a voluntary basis
The below information was given in
written reply to a question about the linking between CGHS card and
Aadhaar by the Minister of Health and Family Welfare Shri Jagat Prakash
Nadda in Lok Sabha on 11th March 2016 as follows…
“Ministry of Health and Family Welfare
has issued an Office Memorandum No. Z-15025/11/201-DIR CGHS dated the
10th July 2015 requesting the Ministries/Departments concerned to
motivate their employees availing CGHS to link their Aadhaar Numbers
with the CGHS database either online themselves through the CGHS portal
or through the CMO-in-charge of their dispensary.
Central Government employees/pensioners
applying for new CGHS cards/new plastic cards have the option to provide
Aadhaar Number for entering the number in CGHS database.
Linking of CGHS beneficiary ID number with Aadhaar number is purely on a voluntary basis.
Linkage of Aadhaar number with CGHS ID
will facilitate consolidation of all health-related data bases and
enable more convenient access to various E-services in the future. “
