Sub: PROPOSAL OF MEDICAL INSURANCE SCHEME FOR RAILWAY EMPLOYEES.
Ref: 1) Railway Board letter No.E(W)2020/Misc/ Dashboard- GIS, dated 27.10.2020 2) Railway Board order No.ERB-1I/2020/23/30, dated 20.10.2020.
1) Ministry of Railways constituted a committee to examine and tender
their recommendations to bring all Railway Employees under the Medical
Insurance Scheme for obtaining treatment in private hospitals. IRTSA
submits the following for the kind consideration of Railway Board.
2) Indian Railways Medical Service (IRMS) is spread
across the length and breadth of the country. IRMS is having 125
hospitals and 586 dispensaries, manned by 33,300 medical staff catering
to approximately 66 lakh beneficiaries including 12.27 lakh serving
employees. In the year 2018-19 Railway Hospitals treated 2.01 crore OPD
patients, 5.08 lakh in-patients and performed 1.02 lakh major and
specialty surgeries.
3) Railway Hospitals performed pre-placement medical examination for
38,000 candidates and carried out periodical medical examination for
1.14 lakh employees. They also examined 12.51 lakh food and water
samples.
4) Indian Railways total medical services expenses for the year
2018-19 including cost of medical staff is Rs. 6888.34 crore. That makes
average medical expense per beneficiary as Rs.10,500.
5) No medical insurance company in India handles 66 lakh
beneficiaries. Medical Insurance doesn’t cover OPD. Since Railway is
catering 2.01 crore OPD patients in a year, it may not be possible to
include huge OPD beneficiaries in private managed medical insurance.
6) In existing Railway medical system all medical services like OPD,
diagnosing, medicines, Surgeries, in-patient care, major
treatment/surgeries carried out in referral private/ CGHS hospitals and
follow-up checking are part of employees’ welfare scheme offered to
employees and their dependents. It is a part of service condition. For
retired employees and their dependents who opted for RELHS on onetime
payment, same medical services are extended.
7) In the Railway Medical system, no cost ceiling is fixed for
entitlement of any required treatment. On the other hand, medical
insurance cover is basically extended to in-patient treatments and for
surgeries with a ceiling based on the premium paid.
8) For example, United India Insurance Company Limited offers Rs.10
lakh sum insured at premium rate per member Rs.12,386 in age group
41-45. If all 66 lakh Railway beneficiaries are covered under above
premium Rs.8370.78 crore will be paid as total premium. Whereas total
medical expense of Indian Railways for the year 2018-19 is Rs. 6888.34
crore which is for diverse services given in the Annexure.
9) In the same time there is a need for addition of more private
empanelled hospitals in Indian Railways Medical Services with seamless
cashless treatment, since large number of serving and retired health
care beneficiaries live in the newly developed suburbs of various cities
throughout India. It is pertinent to note that in case of emergency,
beneficiaries first require to approach Railway Hospital, then they are
referred to private hospitals and in many cases precious golden hours
are lost in mere formalities endangering the life.
10) Beneficiaries living in faraway places from Railway Hospitals
also find it difficult to get their regular treatments and minor
treatments occasionally, since they are required to travel long distance
to reach Railway Hospitals. These beneficiaries will be benefited if
cashless treatment is extended to them in the hospitals available near
their living place.
11) Hence it is requested that,
a. Existing Indian Railways Medical Service facilities may please be continued.
b. The proposal for Medical Insurance Scheme for Railway employees /
Pensioners and their depended may please be made as additionally
facility to the beneficiaries to get their regular treatments including
OPD & IPD in empaneled private hospitals, premium thereof may please
be borne by Railways.
Thanking You
Yours faithfully, (Harchandan Singh), General Secretary, IRTSA

Compassionate appointment to ensure transparency in selection process
F.No.A.12012/8/ 2020- Ad.III.B Government of India Ministry of Finance Department of Revenue Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs

(ii) The All Cadre Controlling Authorities Under Central Board of Indirect Tax & Customs
Subject: Clarification for selecting of applicants who secured equal weightage points on the 100 points scale in merit – reg.
Sir/ Madam,
Please refer to Board’s letter F.No.A.12012 / 52/ 2018-Ad.III B dated
15th May, 2019 wherein a standard operating procedure based on a
100-point scale was circulated for compassionate appointment to ensure
transparency and maintain uniformity and to avoid litigation in the
selection process.
2. It has been reported to the Board by one CCA that while applying
100 points scale parameters, as mentioned in SOP, some candidates have
equal marks in merit and Cadre Controlling Authority is unable to decide
the merit of such candidates in case of tie of marks secured by some
candidates. The matter has been deliberated in the Board to resolve such
situation.
3. After examination the issue in detail, it is felt that the tie breaking factor can be per dependant available income e.
total of first three financial parameters prescribed in SoP
(Pension-annualised, total terminal benefits and annual income of
earning members and income from property) divided by total number of
dependants (spouse, parents, unmarried daughters, minor children,
unmarried major son below 25 years and dependant major sons who are
physically/ mentally challenged). The lesser the per dependant availableincome, the higher the rank amongst the applicants whose scores hada tie.
4. In case of tie even after applying the factor of per dependant availableincome, then
the left-over service of Government Servant can be conside This is
suggested as it is felt that longer the left-over service of the
deceased, the more is the impact on the family. Applicants related to
Government servant with higher left-over service would be considered
over the one with lesser left-over service. In case of tie even then,
the next factor can be age of the applicant, with elder applicants given
preference .
5. The tie breaking factor(s) in the order indicated above, should be
used only to decide relative merit of the applicants scoring same
points on 100- point scale and only if the applicants scoring same
points cannot be accommodated against available All the above details
are already included in the SOP and hence would be readily available
with CCAs in case of a tie.
6. It is requested to offer your comments/ suggestions, if any, on
the proposed formula to resolve the Tie cases not later than 26th Nov,
2020.
Yours faithfully,
Sd/- (MohammadAshit) Under Secretary to the Govt. of India 011-26 162780

URGENT CIRCULAR
OBSERVE 20th OCTOBER 2020 TUESDAY AS “GRANT BONUS DAY.”
HOLD PROTEST DEMONSTRATIONS (OBSERVING COVID PROTOCOL) AT ALL CENTRES AND IN FRONT OF ALL OFFICES.
Dear Comrades,
This year’s Bonus to Central Government Employees is not yet declared
by the Central Government. Normally, every year Bonus is declared
before the second week of October. We suspect some hidden agenda behind
the deliberate delay on the part of the Government. From 1978 onwards
Central Government Employees are paid Bonus without any interruption.
Bonus is a product of historic strike of Railway employees under the
banner of Railway Federations and other Central Government Employees
under the banner of Confederation of Central Government Employees and
Workers. Any attempt to deny Bonus under any pretext cannot be
tolerated.
Confederation of Central Govt. Employees and Workers calls upon the
entirety of Central Government Employees including Gramin Dak Sevaks GDS to
hold protest demonstrations all over India at all centres and also in
front of all offices (observing Covid protocol) on 20th October 2020,
Tuesday. Railway Federations have also given a similar call for protest
demonstrations on 20.10.2020. Let us be ready for strike with short
notice if circumstances demand.
