Dated 31.05.1999.
In the G.Os cited, orders have been issued
prescribing suitable safeguards and procedures duly constituting the Medical
Teams (Medical Boards), District Level Committee of Officers and State Level
Committee of Officers to prevent any misuse of the scheme of compassionate
appointments to the dependents of Government employees who retire on Medical
Invalidation.
2. Among other things, in para 5(1) of the
G.O. first cited, while constituting Medical Teams (Medical Boards) for issuing
Medical Reports / Certificates to the Government employees who are seeking
retirement on Medical Invalidation, it has been ordered therein that among the
Medical Teams (Medical Boards) one shall be a specialist in the disease /
illness with which the employee is suffering from and seeking Medical
Invalidation and in case of lady employee seeking Medical Invalidation, there
shall be Lady Civil Surgeon in the Medical Board.
3. In the Govt. Memo third cited, the
Director of Medical Education and the Commissioner of Andhra Pradesh Vaidhya
Vidhana Parishad are requested to issue suitable instructions to the
Superintendents of Teaching Hospitals and to the District Co-ordinators of the
Hospitals in the District Headquarters respectively, for inclusion of a
Specialist in the disease / illness with which the employee is suffering from
and seeking Medical Invalidation and in case of a lady employee to include a
Lady Civil Surgeon in the Medical Teams (Medical Boards) in accordance with the
orders issued in the G.O. first cited in order to ensure that in future Medical
examinations result in proper evaluations.
4. The State Level Committee of Officers
during their meeting on 07.08.1999 under the Chairmanship of Special Chief
Secretary to Government and Chairman, Commissionerate of Inquiries, General
Administration Department, while scrutinising the proposals relating to
retirement on Medical Invalidation and consequential proposals for
Compassionate Appointments to the dependents of certain Government employees of
Heads of Departments have observed during consideration of the cases that the
name, designation and specialisation of the Civil Surgeons who have issued the
Medical Invalidation Certificates are not being indicated in the Medical
Invalidation Certificates. Therefore, it is very difficult to identify as to
whether the Medical Boards consist of the Specialists in the disease/illness
with which the employee is suffering from and seeking Medical Invalidation. Therefore,
the State Level Committee of Officers recommended for issue of suitable
instructions in this regard.
5. The Director of Medical Education and the Commissioner
of Andhra Pradesh Vidhya Vidhana Parishad are therefore requested to issue
suitable instructions to the Superintendents of Teaching Hospitals and to the
District Co-ordinators of the Hospitals in the District Headquarters
respectively, to ensure that the name (in Block letters), designation and
specialisation of the Members of the Medical Board, who are issuing the Medical
Invalidation Certificates, be indicated specifically in the Medical
Invalidation Certificates.
