Is treatment for Diabetes or Hypertension or for complications arising due to the same covered under KAS?
A. In case of chronic diseases like Diabetes, Hypertension, etc., the first instance or when it is detected for the first time during the scheme period, will be treated under KAS provisions. The treatment costs would not be considered thereafter since this burden would adversely affect the Trust’s ability to serve all members equitably.
