If I opted for above scheme I have to go Mulud (Mumbai) for this purpose.Is there is time limit to join this Scheme.How I will get the Form.

    I am retired central govt.employee.from when this scheme will be applicable and when forms should be filled in

  5. What is the latest developement ofthe scheme, is it still in paper? Concerned authorities may take immediate action to implement the scheme.

  6. The govt.and the some federation leaders playing hide and seek in the health care issue of poor central govt officers and pensioners.Both of them may have hidden agendas. My dear friends we will hear the good news only if and when these two get satisfied with their ordeals.Govt is not sinceare in their promises until a court order is slapped on them. Curse your destiny and keep quiet.

  7. Sir,
    I am working in Indian Bureau of Mines, a government organisation of ministry of mines.  I am interested to enroll for self and family under CGEPHIS scheme. Kindly enlighten me regarding the rules, regulations  and procedures to be followed  for becoming a member of the scheme, along with its benefits and terms-conditions.
    Yours faithfully

  8. I made a request to know the effective date from which the CGEPHIS scheme is actually made effective. The membership could be obtained by those needy who are otherwise deprived of the CGHS facilities in areas where the same is not available.

    The government should get it implemented quickly.

    May I know when it is likely to be made effective?

  9. The CGEPHIS scheme is much talked about. Almost each and every pensioner is eagerly waiting for its introduction. May I know when this scheme is likely to be made effective?
