1. Sir, ESIC has its own referral and reimbursement system and policies. In the past in some threads I have uploaded the copies of such instructions issued by ESIC.
2. In case the employee has not been referred to private hospital through ESI Dispensary/ESI Hospital, as per procedure laid down then I think, ESIC will make no reimbursements.
3. I think, it will be more better if the concerned employee may contact the appropriate ESIS dispensary to which he is attached and show them the medical bills/his entitlement etc. .
