Dated 16/7/2012

The General Managers,
All Indian Railways and
Production Units.

Sub: Engagement of retired Railway doctors as Contract Medical Practitioners (CMPs).

   To meet the shortage of doctors in Indian Railway Medical service, doctors from open market are engaged as Contract Medical Practitioners (CMPs). Such engagements are made for a maximum period of 8 terms with each term of engagement not being of more than one year and for each term contract being entered afresh. However, it has been observed that despite this scheme being in existence, there is still acute shortage of doctors in Indian Railway Medical Service because of high rate of attrition among CMPs and lack of sufficient response from doctors from open market for engagement as CMP.

   Ministry of Railways have considered the matter and in order to meet the shortage of doctors it has been decided that in addition to the scheme of engagement of Medical Practitioners from open market as CMPs, retired Railway doctors upto the age of 65 years shall also be engaged as Contract Medical Practitioners against existing regular vacancies on a fixed remuneration of  ` 46,000/- p.m. (subject to the condition that remuneration + pension drawn by retired Railway doctor should not exceed the last pay drawn). Such engagement of retired Railway doctors as CMPs shall be for a maximum of two terms of one year each and for each term of one year a fresh contract shall be entered.

   The engagement of retired Railway doctors shall be made by inviting application to fill up the vacancies by way of open advertisement in the leading Newspapers as well as over Indian Railways Website. The screening of the applicants for engagement as CMPs shall be made by a Committee of three Senior Administrative Grade Officers (of whom one each shall be from Medical and Personnel Departments). The engagement of CMPs based on the recommendations of the Committee shall be made with the personal approval of General Manager in consultation with FA&CAO.

   The terms and conditions of the contract with retired Railway doctors for engagement as Contract Medical Practitioners are enclosed. Since these terms and conditions are not exhaustive, Railways are advised to seek the guidelines from Ministry of Railways wherever required.

  The above scheme of engagement of retired Railway doctors as Contract Medical Practitioners shall be valid for a period of 3 years from the date of issue of this notification. It shall be reviewed thereafter.

   This issues in consultation with Health Directorate of Ministry of Railways and concurrence of Finance Directorate of Ministry of Railways.

   Please acknowledge receipt.
