India - Survey on Morbidity and Health Care: NSS 60th Round, Schedule 25, January 2004 - June 2005

Annual amount of money paid by the household as medical insurance premium for each of the household member will be recorded under column 14 in whole number of rupees. Similarly, amount of money paid for various health schemes like that of CGHS, ESI, etc. will be recorded under column 15. It may be noted that for medical insurance premium, only the amount, which is paid for a particular member, will be recorded against that member. In case a fixed amount is paid annually for CGHS or ESI, etc. by the household, the amount is to be apportioned equally between the members of the household who are covered by the health scheme and recorded against each of them. In the case of contribution for CGHS or ESI, if a part of the money is still payable for the last year, it is also to be considered here for recording. If no such amount is paid, a '0' mark may be recorded.
