            Some empanelled hospitals have withdrawn their services to ECHS due to delay in payment of their dues on time. Prior to 1st April 2012 processing and payment of all the empanelled hospital bills was done manually through the Station Commanders and Senior Executive Medical Officers (SEMO) of Military Hospitals. Since no additional staff was authorized for the above task, the processing of bills was slow and resulted in delays in payment of the hospitals bills. As a measure towards expediting processing and payment of bills, On-line processing of empanelled hospitals` bills has commenced w.e.f. 1st April 2012 and the same has been implemented in 10 Regional Centres out of 28 Regional Centres so far.
This information was given by Minister of State for Defence Shri Jitendra Singh in a written reply to Shri Rajeev Chandrasekharin Rajya Sabha today.
