DGEHS Hospitals List in Faridabad

If you’re a Delhi Government employee or pensioner living in Faridabad, you know the drill. You’ve settled into a nice life in Sector 14, 21C, or Greater Faridabad, but whenever a health issue pops up, the immediate thought is: "Do I really have to battle the Mathura Road traffic or the Badarpur border to get to a hospital in Delhi?"


Faridabad is home to a significant population of retired Delhi Government employees who have settled in residential areas like Sector 14, Sector 21C, NIT Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, and Greater Faridabad. For these families, travelling back into Delhi for every specialist consultation or planned procedure is neither practical nor necessary.


Felix Hospital in Greater Noida is empanelled under DGEHS. From most parts of Faridabad, Felix Hospital is reachable in 35 to 50 minutes via the Yamuna Expressway corridor — closer than many Delhi-based DGEHS hospitals when city traffic is factored in. Covered treatments are cashless. The hospital handles pre-authorisation and claims settlement directly.

What is DGEHS?

The Delhi Government Employees Health Scheme is a health protection programme run by the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi. It provides cashless medical treatment to serving and retired Delhi Government employees and their dependent family members at empanelled hospitals across Delhi and the NCR region.


For Delhi Government employees and pensioners who have settled in Faridabad — one of the most popular residential destinations for retired government servants from south and central Delhi — DGEHS empanelled hospitals in the NCR like Felix Hospital provide full cashless coverage without requiring a trip back into Delhi for treatment.

 

Who Can Benefit from the DGEHS Scheme?

Serving Delhi Government employees across all departments and grades are covered. Retired Delhi Government employees and pensioners drawing pension from the Delhi Government treasury are entitled. Dependent family members including spouse, unmarried children up to 25 years who are not independently employed, and dependent parents whose income falls below the prescribed threshold are all covered under the card of the serving or retired employee.

 

Coverage for Disabled Dependents

A dependent child with a certified disability remains covered under the DGEHS card regardless of age, as long as the disability is documented and the child remains financially dependent on the card holder. The disability certificate issued by a competent authority must be presented at the Felix Hospital DGEHS helpdesk at the time of admission.

 

Your DGEHS Card – The Key to Cashless Treatment

The DGEHS card identifies you as an entitled beneficiary and triggers cashless treatment at empanelled hospitals. At Felix Hospital, presenting your DGEHS card at the dedicated helpdesk is the first step. The helpdesk verifies your card against the DGEHS system, confirms entitlement, and initiates the admission process.


For planned procedures, pre-authorization is submitted by Felix Hospital on your behalf. For emergencies, treatment begins immediately and authorization is handled retrospectively. In neither case are you required to visit any DGEHS office or follow up with any government department separately.

 

What DGEHS Does Not Cover

DGEHS does not cover cosmetic or aesthetic procedures that are not medically necessary. Procedures classified as experimental or not yet approved in standard clinical practice are excluded. Dental treatment beyond basic extractions is generally not covered unless arising from an accident. Spectacles, hearing aids, and assistive devices are covered only within specified limits. Procedures performed at non-empanelled hospitals are not eligible for cashless treatment and face restrictions even on the reimbursement route.


For any doubt about whether a specific procedure is covered before you travel, call the Felix Hospital DGEHS helpdesk directly.

 

DGEHS Room Eligibility & Entitlement Guide

Room entitlement under DGEHS is determined by the pay level or grade of the serving employee or the pension drawn by the retired employee.

 

Beneficiary Category

Room Entitlement

Grade A Officers, senior scale and above

Private Room

Grade B Officers

Semi-Private Room

Grade C and below

General Ward

Pensioners

As per last pay drawn equivalent

Dependants

As per the card holder's entitlement

 

If a higher room category is chosen beyond entitlement, only the difference in room rent is payable by the beneficiary. All clinical charges including surgery, medicines during admission, and investigations remain at DGEHS approved rates regardless of room choice. Confirm your specific room entitlement at the Felix Hospital DGEHS helpdesk on arrival.

 

Cashless vs. Reimbursement Under DGEHS

DGEHS beneficiaries technically have two options — cashless treatment at an empanelled hospital or paying out of pocket and applying for reimbursement later. The practical difference is significant.

Choosing cashless at Felix Hospital eliminates the financial exposure and administrative burden that reimbursement claims routinely create for Faridabad families during an already difficult time.

 

DGEHS Claim Process & Common Rejections

The cashless claim process at Felix Hospital is handled entirely by the hospital's DGEHS administrative desk. The three most common reasons DGEHS claims get rejected are procedural, not clinical ,and all three are avoidable.


The first is missing or incomplete documentation , an expired DGEHS card, a missing dependent registration, or an Aadhaar mismatch. Carrying the full document checklist eliminates this. The second is treatment at a non-empanelled hospital and then applying for reimbursement ,claims are frequently rejected or partially settled in these cases. The third is procedures falling outside DGEHS approved packages being initiated without prior clarity on coverage.
At Felix Hospital, the DGEHS helpdesk checks all of these before admission proceeds, not after discharge.

 

The Referral Manual: How to Access Felix Hospital

For planned treatment: DGEHS planned treatment at a referral hospital like Felix Hospital requires a referral from the Medical Officer at your designated DGEHS dispensary or the Chief Medical Officer of your department. The referral specifies the department and nature of care required.


Bring the referral letter, your DGEHS card, and your Aadhaar card to the Felix Hospital DGEHS helpdesk. From this point, the hospital team manages registration, pre-authorisation submission, and admission. You do not follow up with any DGEHS office separately.


For emergencies: No referral is required. Walk directly into the Felix Hospital emergency department. DGEHS rules permit direct emergency admission at any empanelled hospital. The clinical team treats first. The administrative team handles documentation and retrospective authorisation after stabilisation.

 

Essential Documentation Checklist (Zero-Rejection Matrix)
 

  • Mandatory — without these, verification cannot proceed:
     

  • Valid DGEHS card, physical or digital copy
     

  • Aadhaar card of the patient, original plus one photocopy
     

  • Referral letter from DGEHS dispensary or departmental CMO for planned treatment
     

  • For a dependent family member, proof of dependency registration on the DGEHS card
     

Strongly recommended:

 

  • Previous medical records, prescriptions, or discharge summaries for ongoing conditions
     

  • Disability certificate for dependents covered under the disability provision
     

  • Department identity card of the serving or retired employee as secondary identification
     

  • For emergencies, come first. Documents can be submitted after the patient is stabilised.

 

Life-Threatening Emergencies (No Referral Required Matrix)

 

1. For Planned Treatment (Surgeries/Consultations)

You need a referral. Start at your DGEHS Dispensary or get a letter from your Departmental CMO. Bring that letter, your DGEHS card, and your Aadhaar to the Felix Hospital helpdesk. We take it from there.
 

2. For Life-Threatening Emergencies

Stop! You do NOT need a referral. If someone is having a heart attack or stroke, bring them straight to the Felix Emergency Wing. DGEHS guidelines permit direct admission in emergencies. We’ll stabilize the patient first and sort out the paperwork later.

 

Why Choose Felix Hospital?

For retired government servants, "quality" is non-negotiable. At Felix, we treat DGEHS patients with the exact same priority as private patients.

 

  • Escape the Congestion: Why spend 2 hours in a car to reach a crowded Delhi hospital when you can reach a world-class facility in 40 minutes?
     

  • Technology First: We aren't just a general hospital. We feature a 24/7 Digital Cath Lab, and Laminar Airflow OTs to keep infection rates at zero.
     

  • The "Paperwork Battle": We know the DGEHS system inside out. Our dedicated desk handles the pre-authorisations and documentation so you don't have to follow up with government offices.
