ADVISORY: COVID-19 EMERGENCY MEDICAL ADVICE

1. The prevalent COVID-19 pandemic has created a national med emergency and has affected our aged and elderly ECHS beneficiaries with unprecedented severity.

2. In order to ensure ready availability of medical advice to the ECHS beneficiaries in emergency situations, especially during non working hours and holidays, it is advised that appropriate measures be instituted to enable affected beneficiaries to reach out to the designated appt. While it is appreciated the Regional Centres and Polyclinics may have already implemented medical emergency protocols, continuous publicity of these measures to the veteran community will strengthen the entire anti COVID drive.

3. For info and necessary action please.
