If we have a group medical Insurance in our company, is it that do we have any possibilities of replacing the ESI? Help me on it.

Medical Insurance is beneficial for employees who don’t come under the ESI bracket. But, for employees falling within the bracket, ESI coverage is madatory.

hi sultan,
mediclaim can not be replaced by ESIC.
there are different covers on both of them
as per the law, the employee whose annual income is less than or equal to 120000/- (one lakh twenty thousand) will be covered under ESIC.
any employee whose annual income exceeds more than that will be covered under the mediclaim insurance.
you can not replace it with ESIC at all.

Dear Sultan
There is a difference in ESIC and insurance. The main one is if you have a certain no. of employees and is below Rs. 10000 gross ESIC is compulsory. Insurance is a matter of choice.
Thanks & Regards

NO esic is a social sector organisation under minisrty of labour who provides medical facilities to the employees who is working with unorganised sector with salary of Rs. 10000/- pm inclusive of all allowances. They also provide cash benefit to employees only on their contributions. But Group Medical facility only provide facility to those employees who are not covered under ESIC with cashless benefits.

Group Medical Insurance benefit is discretion of the Management. It is a part of welfare scheme. So donot mix up with the ESI and Medical Insurance.
You cannot replace the ESI scheme. It is a compulsory scheme and various benefits are available.

Dear Sumit,
As per my experience, of course ESIC can not replace with Medical Facility, if employee is getting Rs. 10000/- Pm then ESIC is very compulsory.
But Group Medical Insurance facility is depend on your company policy.
In my company ESIC covered employees are also covered under (Private) group medical facility (when & as required, Insurance coverage Rs. 100000/-) and they are eligible for medical allowance (pay on salary slip_Per month @ 1250/-) also.
