ECHS

Address: Gurgaon, Haryana

Hi,

I am now 26 years old. Till now, I was not having any problem. Right now, I need to admit to any hospital. An officer told me that as you are dependent hence, your card gets expired when you cross 25 years age. Is that true? If it is then is there any way I can be benefited by any of the ECHS schemes. My father rank was Warrant officer (IAF).

Please someone respond asap. Thanks in advance...
