Cashless medical scheme for staff of Karnataka RTCs soon

BENGALURU: The State Government will roll out a cashless medical scheme for transport employees in the first week of January. Under this scheme, drivers and conductors and their dependents are eligible for cashless treatment in 240 hospitals across the state. Earlier, employees had to pay for treatment and then get the expenditure reimbursed.

However, with this scheme, they can get cashless treatment by producing a “card” at the designated government and private hospitals, including super speciality ones.
