“ESI beneficiaries can be referred to tie-up hospitals for any medical requirement, including emergency and non-emergency services, during the period for which concerned ESIC hospital functions as dedicated Covid-19 Hospital. "

Adding to the above, ESIC allows IPs to purchase medicines from private chemists during lockdown. In order to ease the hardship of ESI beneficiaries in this tough time, ESIC has allowed the purchase of medicines by beneficiaries from private chemists during the lockdown period and its subsequent reimbursement by ESIC. Furthermore, ESI authorities have extended medical services of ESI hospitals not only to IPs but also to the general public without any user charges (for COVID-19 suspected/confirmed cases) as per their circular no. PT No. A/48/15/3/2017 Med-1 dated 13/4/2020.
