IT Roorkee Members: Unlock Quality Healthcare with Saksham Hospital Partnership

IIT Roorkee has recently entered into a crucial partnership with Saksham Hospital, Saharanpur, to provide its community members with top-notch medical services at affordable rates. This new agreement, set to benefit the institute's faculty, staff, and students, promises to make healthcare more accessible and convenient for all beneficiaries.

What This Means for You: Access to Quality Medical Services

Affordable Healthcare at CGHS Rates

One of the biggest advantages of this partnership is the access to indoor treatment at Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) rates. Whether you're seeking general medical care, undergoing surgery, or requiring specialist consultations, Saksham Hospital will provide these services at standardized rates, making healthcare more affordable for everyone associated with IIT Roorkee.

• Indoor Treatment: Get treated for various medical conditions, from routine check-ups to surgeries, all at CGHS rates.
• Outpatient Services: Consultations are available for just Rs. 150, ensuring that you can access medical advice without breaking the bank.

Priority Treatment for IIT Roorkee Members

In case of hospital admission or outpatient services, Saksham Hospital has agreed to prioritize IIT Roorkee beneficiaries. This means quicker appointments, reduced waiting times, and prompt attention in emergencies.

• Faster Appointments: Get the care you need without the usual delays.
• Priority Admission: If you need to be hospitalized, rest assured that you will be given priority, ensuring timely and efficient treatment.

Steps to Avail These Benefits

Verifying Your Eligibility

To avail of these benefits, you’ll need to present your IIT Roorkee-issued medical booklet, which includes your photograph. This booklet serves as proof of your eligibility and must be shown at Saksham Hospital before you receive treatment.

• Bring Your Medical Booklet: Always carry your IIT Roorkee medical booklet to verify your eligibility for these services.
• Clear Billing Procedures: All bills will be clearly detailed, and you’ll be required to sign off on them, ensuring transparency in the process.

Handling Payments

While Saksham Hospital provides treatment at discounted rates, it’s important to note that you will need to clear your medical bills before discharge. This agreement ensures that you receive quality care, but IIT Roorkee will not be responsible for covering these costs directly.

• Settle Bills Before Discharge: Make sure to clear any outstanding payments before leaving the hospital to avoid any inconvenience.

Additional Benefits

Continuous Support and Assistance

Saksham Hospital will also provide you with important contact information, including the details of their Public Relations Officer (PRO) and emergency contact numbers. This ensures you have a reliable point of contact at the hospital for any queries or issues that may arise.

• Emergency Contacts: You’ll have direct access to hospital contacts for any emergencies.
• Referral Services: If a specific test or procedure isn’t available at Saksham Hospital, they’ll issue authorized referral papers to guide you to the appropriate facility.

Why This Matters: Health is Wealth

This collaboration between IIT Roorkee and Saksham Hospital represents a significant step forward in ensuring that the institute’s community receives the best possible healthcare. By making quality medical services both accessible and affordable, this partnership is set to benefit countless individuals who are part of the IIT Roorkee family.
