Seeking Advice on Updating Medical Check-Up Reimbursement for Employees Over 40 in Delhi/NCR

All concerned,

We would like to amend our annual medical check-up policy for our employees who have crossed 40 years of age. As per the present policy, we are reimbursing Rs. 2000/- for our employees who have crossed 40 years of age, which has been effective since the year 2002. Now, since there has been a drastic change in prices, we would like to revise this amount.

We would request our HR friends to let me know if there is a list of good hospitals/nursing homes in Delhi/NCR region where we can get different packages for medical check-ups. Secondly, what amount should we reimburse to the employee concerned for the annual medical check-up who has crossed 40 years of age. I would request the members to share their current policy, experience, or knowledge on the same.

Instead of paying the amount directly to the employees, the company can tie up with reputed hospitals and enter into a rate contract for the whole year for a master health check-up. The company can make the payment directly to the hospital and receive the reports. The company just has to issue a letter to the hospital with the details of the employee who is going for a medical check-up. Many reputed hospitals are offering discounted package rates for corporates with 1 or 2 months of credit facilities.

Regards,
Pon
