The above letter released by BSNL corporate office is regarding furnishing FRESH OPTION by retirees who wants MEDICAL ALLOWANCE of Rs 1000 for the last  year 2020 to 2021, to their respective office.Those who migrated to CGHS  facility during the mid period of 2020 -21  also can furnish stating the date of getting SURRENDER CERTIFICATE. Details called for in the said letter  are also to be enclosed.

Regarding exercise of option for Medical Allowance for 2020-21. As per the BSNL CO. order Family pensioner can not change the option of what the pensioner given. Medical allowance facility to Pensioners was accorded since 2018-19. All pensioners were getting only voucher payment earlier. Inspite of that Some of the Family pensioner got medical allowance payment for 2018-19 in some circle. My personnel suggestion is that those Family pensioners having BSNL MRS CARD and exercised option for Allowance based on May 2020 letter also can submit. Since BSNL CO asks to submit a fresh option those who have not given any bill for 2020-21 can also have the chance to submit option for Medical allowance.

Dear Comrades, Kindly refer to the letter posted regarding exercising fresh option for Medical Allowance for 2020-21. In this connection,issue of guidelines to SSAs as well as pensioners are under discussion. We will wait for a couple of days. Corporate office issued the letter to its own office and to Circles with a copy to Serving union/Association. They took up the case with CORPORATE OFFICE. On receipt of guidelines by CIRCLE OFFICE, we will post further guidelines.
