Medical attendance rules for apprentices:-
Medical attendance and treatment facilities, free
of charge, will be admissible to all Apprentices
other than those governed by the Apprentice Act,
1961, but not to their family members, on the
same scale as available to Railway employees, but
confined only to the extant facilities as available
in Railway hospitals and health units.
For the purpose of medical attendance and
treatment they may be classified according to the
categories for which they are Apprentices.
For the purpose of recovery of diet charges, the stipend drawn by
them should be treated as pay.
No reimbursement facilities are available in non-Railway
institutions or T.B institutions where beds have been reserved
for Railway employees.
Note: (i) Trade Apprentices as are governed by the Apprentice
Act 1961, but otherwise come within the definition of the phrase
"family members" or"dependent relatives" of a Railway employee,
will be eligible for medical attendance and treatment facilities
according to the status of the Railway employee, under the normal
rules. 146 (ii) Free medical treatment may be accorded to all
Apprentices, including those governed by the Apprentice Act,
1961, when personal injuries are caused to them by accidents
arising out of and in the course of the training as Apprentices.
