Finance minister Pranab Mukherjee on Monday said that public sector general insurance companies had not withdrawn cashless mediclaim facility. "The public sector general insurance companies have not, I am emphasising on, have not revised or withdrawn the facility of cashless treatment," he said in the Lok Sabha. Mr Mukherjee said that the insurance firms have only started rationalising empanelment of hospitals and the standardisation of rates and specified procedures followed by these hospitals. From July 1, public sector insurance companies had suspended about 150 hospitals from their list of preferred provider network (PPN) which provide cashless hospitalisation services to policy holders under the mediclaim scheme. Last week, insurance regulator Irda chairman J Harinarayan had expressed hope that hospitals and insurers will be able to arrive at a mutual solution.
