Extract of MINUTES of The PNM Meeting between Railway Board and National Federation of Indian Railwaymen held on 19th & 20th May, 2023

 

9/2023: Reimbursement of Medical expenses to serving/retired Railway employees – Hon’ble Supreme Court’s decision-reg.

Official Side stated that in terms of Para 15 of the judgment, the Judgment is confined to the case in question only. Extant procedures are already available for reimbursement of medical expenses in Indian Railways as per SOP 5(a) of Medical Matters which are comprehensive. Federation was asked to submit specific cases where reimbursement has not been made. Federation requested the Railway Board to check up with the MOHW whether the instructions exist in reference to Judgement of Supreme Court.

23/2023: New technology relating to Knee joint replacement – Referral provision through MOU with corporate Hospitals-reg.

Official side stated that Knee Replacement as of now continues to remain suspect in terms of benefits. So, incorporating of Robotic Total Knee Replacement in MOU at this juncture may be ill advised. Therefore, it does not seem feasible to include Robotic Knee Replacement surgery in MOU with Corporate Hospitals.
