Para 13.33 — MSO (A&E)
Original Rule Text
13.33 The expenditure incurred by and to be reimbursed to gazetted Government Servants on account of medical attendance and treatment is drawn by them in Salary Bills under the Sub-Head ‘Allowances, receipts and vouchers in all cases without prior authority of the Accountant General. All such bills should be posted in a register in Form-68 as a safeguard against double claims.
What This Means
When gazetted government servants incur medical expenses that are reimbursable, they draw these amounts in their salary bills under the sub-head 'Allowances.' These claims do not need prior approval from the Accountant General, but the officer must attach receipts and vouchers. All such medical reimbursement bills must be recorded in a register (Form-68) to prevent duplicate claims.
