As per Memo No. 3474-F dated 11.05.09, Rule (1) Note: If one opts under the Scheme, Medical Allowance will not be admissible to both of them provided that both husband and wife are State Govt. Employees.
Accordingly the comment was made. Govt. clarified the matter vide Memo No. 9205-F (MED) dated 05.10.09. If the spouse is an employee of central govt. / Bank or employed in a corporation / undertaking financed wholly or partly by the Central or State Government, local bodies, aided institutions and Private organizations, which provide medical services, the medical facility can be availed of at one place only. Therefore, if spouse wants to get the benefits under the West Bengal Health Scheme, 2008 an official certificate from his/her employer is to be obtained first regarding relinquishment of medical allowance and medical benefits available from his/her employer. Sorry, I missed the second order while commenting.
