Obtaining Medical Benefits for Maternity
Sir, there is not a lengthy procedure to get medical benefits in the case of your wife's maternity. However, you must possess an ESIC Pehchan Card with your wife's name on it. I think you will need to make efforts to obtain the card through your employer or HR.
Eligibility for Maternity Benefits
Maternity benefits are payable only to covered women (i.e., covered female employees only). In the case of a family member, such as the wife, only medical facilities are available if the employee (her husband) is covered under the above Act. You are also required to have your wife undergo periodic medical check-ups from an authorized ESI Dispensary Doctor or ESI Hospital to which you are attached, to get necessary guidance, medicines, etc.
Next Steps
In view of the above, I hope you will contact the ESIC Branch Office Manager immediately to obtain the Pehchan Card. Please ensure that the names of your wife and other family members are correctly entered on the said card by the office. After that, you can also contact the ESIS dispensary or hospital as per your requirement. With best wishes.
