CGHS Updates Photo Rules for Hospital Submissions

The government has changed the photo rules for people using the Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS).

Now, if you have a referral for a hospital stay, you don't need to submit photos.

If you don't have a referral, you'll need to take photos when you're admitted and discharged, and every week if your stay is longer.

For those visiting the doctor without a referral, only certain groups need a photo, like people over 70.

There is a one-time break on previous daily photo uploads.

All photos must be geo-tagged and submitted within 24 hours.
