Conclusion
You can avail cashless treatment at a wide range of empanelled network hospitals by showing the Amma Kapitu Thittam Card issued to you at the time of enrolment. Since the CMCHIS claim process is ideally cashless, you do not have to pay anything at the hospital from your pocket. However, it is essential to present the Muthalamaichar Kapitu Thittam card at the hospital at the time of availing the benefits under the scheme.
The empanelled hospital where you are seeking the treatment will send the bills to the Third-Party Administrator (TPA) or the authorities directly, for settlement. The hospitalisation and treatment expenses incurred will be settled directly with the hospital. You do not have to pay any additional charges from your pocket.
