PRMS Medical Reimbursement | 'Hospital of National Repute' Includes NABH-Accredited Hospitals Without Formal Empanelment : Punjab & Haryana HC
Punjab & Haryana HC rules that denying post-retirement medical reimbursement under PRMS for treatment at NABH-accredited hospitals-merely due to lack of formal empanelment-violates Article 21. The term 'hospital of national repute' must be interpreted liberally to include accredited institutions, ensuring pensioners' right to health without arbitrary administrative barriers.
