Further good news about ECHS. ESM involvement in running of ECHS Polyclinics and coordination is fast improving. The ECHS Cell at IESM Headquarters has been formed and fast taking control of the situation.
In the Cell formed, Air Marshal Kuldip Rai, AVSM, Former Director General Medical Services, Air Force, is one of the three signatories on behalf of ESM, of the ECHS Plan, when it was initially launched. The other two signatories were Maj Gen SC Suri, who is settled in New Delhi and Late Cdr N Radhakrishnan.
Rear Admiral G Kuruvilla, A Former Scientist G of DRDO and Director M/s Steel Industrials Kerala Ltd (Govt of Kerala undertaking), President Navy Foundation - Kerala Chapter, Kochi. He has been studying the functioning of ECHS for more than a year and has vast knowledge about its functioning and problems of ESM.
Brig SC Kuthiala too has been studying the problems of ECHS functioning for more than a year and has attended the recent ECHS Seminar at Chandimandir. After attending the seminar Brig Kuthiala presented a very comprehensive report, which has been circulated on "Report My Signal". He is now in close touch with ECHS
hierarchy and the concerned departments of The Services Headquarters.
Be assured that under guidance of Air Marshal Rai and Admiral Kuruvilla and support of Col RP Chaturvedi, Member IESM Steering Committee, Brig Kuthiala will very speedily bring improvements required in the functioning of ECHS.
In turn we all ESM have to give all possible help to this ECHS Cell.
As a first step the IESM ECHS Cell needs ESM volunteers to coordinate functioning of 13 Sub Cells planned at ECHS Regional Cells. For more details please read the paper on "ECHS Cell of IESM" sent by Brig SC Kuthiala, appended below. While I am sure enough volunteers would come forward to take on this honorable job, please note that those volunteering should be:
Firstly- Well versed with emailing, general use of computer skills and have a reliable 24x7 broadband connection at home/ their own office.
Secondly - Able to devote enough time to interact with the ESM and the ECHS authorities in the respective areas. It would need lot of devotion and selfless service. The volunteers should take action as directed in the paper appended below.

ECHS CELL OF IESM
The IESM has recently constituted an ECHS cell comprising the following members:
In order for the Cell to have an All India perspective and reach, it has been decided, in the first instance, to create sub cells alongside each of the 13 Regional Centres of the of the ECHS and subsequently, all the 227 polyclinics. The establishment of 15 more Regional Centres of the ECHS is at an advanced stage of consideration with the Govt and corresponding sub cells will be created accordingly. These cells and sub cells when created will permit the IESM to interact constructively at all levels of the ECHS hierarchy from Polyclinic to Central Organisation of the ECHS including the Adjutant General, DGMS Army and the three Chiefs as and when necessary. Volunteers are therefore required for the sub cells alongside the ECHS Regional/ State Centres.
Veterans volunteering to assist the IESM in improving medicare to ESM are requested to email their bio data to the coordinator Col RP Chaturvedi at the earliest but definitely by 21 Aug 2009.
