35 ( 28 ) GOVERNMENT OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR FINANCE DEPARTMENT. CIRCULAR The J&K Medical Attendance-cum._Allowance Rules, 1990 have been introduced to take care of anticipated and sudden requirements of lump sum amount for medical treatment of self as well as dependent family members of the Govt. employee, realising that the employees may need additional financial support on such occasion. The Government have laid down the parameters within which such financial assistance shall be provided to supplement the efforts of the employees from his own sources. But the liability of the Government shall be restricted to the extent provided for in the rules and reimbursement shall be permissible only ifthe procedure prescribed is strictly followed. The spirit of rules is to reimburse the expenditure incurred by a Govt. servant for self or any other eligible dependent family member during hospitalization in Govt. hospital or the hospital identified by the Govt. for taking such treatment, not available in the Govt. hospitals. It has been observed that the medical reimbursement claims are referred to by the Administrative Department for consideration in relaxation of rules. The relaxation is only considered were the rules apply harshly to a Govt. servant. But it has been noted that the employees proceed out side the State in connection with private affairs and take treatment in the costly hospitals and then refer medical claims for reimbursement with the justification that they had suddenly fallen ill. Such cases need to be discouraged rather recommending for reimbursement. To arrest the practice of recommending claim in relaxation of rules, it is impressed upon all the administrative departments to entertain only such claims, which are supported with the documentary proof and are deserving on the basis of circumstances.
