Some Ex-Servicemen were finding it difficult to raise the initial amount, which they are required to pay the civil hospital for their treatment and 60% of which is subsequently reimbursed to them by the KSB. To overcome this difficulty, KSB has tied up with some civil hospitals wherein 60% of the expenditure incurred by the eligible Ex-Servicemen/dependents for treatment of serious diseases in these hospitals, will henceforth be claimed by them directly from KSB and the individual will have to pay the balance amount only for their treatment.
