In an amendment to its earlier order, Jipmer will not insist on BPL ration cards from patients for accessing free treatment and services from October 1.
In a modified order superseding its earlier circular, Jipmer stated that there would be “no insistence of BPL card production for registration of a patient by the Medical Records Department”.
“This will be purely voluntary. However, patients shall be encouraged to do so for their convenience”.
