2. Of late, certain management of the private hospitals had requested the Government to
include them in the approved list so as to enable the Government employees and their family
members to undergo specialised advanced surgeries / treatment if they are affected by major
ailments. As there were no uniform norms prescribed for inclusion of private hospitals in the list
of approved hospitals, the Government in their reference twelveth read above had issued orders
prescribing certain norms for streamlining the system of approving the private hospitals based
on their specialisation in the specified diseases under the Tamil Nadu Government Employees
Health Fund Scheme.

3. Accordingly, Director of Medical Education / Director of Medical and Rural Health

Services have inspected the private hospitals who had applied for accreditation. The Director of
Medical Education / Director of Medical and Rural Health Services after inspecting the private
hospitals concerned have submitted their reports to Government with their recommendations to
include them in the accredited list.

4. The Government, after careful examination on the recommendations of the Director of

Medical Education / Director of Medic,aland Rural Health Services, pass the following orders:-

I) the specialised advanced surgery/ treatment which were approved earlier are now
classified under the broad based groups as indicated in the Annexure I to this
order. .

2) the private hospitals which were accredited already in the references fifth to
eleventh read above have ceased-to be in the approved list forthwith.

3) the revised accredited list of hospitals and the specialisation for which the
hospitals are approved is indicated in the Annexure II to this order.

5. There shall be no change in other existing rules and conditions.

6. The sanctioning authorities empowered to sanction financial assistance under this

scheme are requested to indicate the classifications of the diseases in their proceedings/orders
scrupulously.
