New Delhi, June 15 (IBNS) The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given its approval for enhancement of the age of superannuation of Non-Teaching and Public Health Specialists of Central Health Service from 62 years to 65 years and Doctors of General Duty Medical Officers (GDMOs) sub-cadre of Central Health Service (CHS) to 65 years.

"The target group would be officers of Non-Teaching, Public Health and GDMO sub-cadres of CHS. The decision would help in better patient care, proper academic activities in Medical colleges as also in effective implementation of National Health Programmes for delivery of health care services," read a government statement.

There is no financial implications as the vacant posts would have to be filled up quickly to ensure continuity of patient care, it said.
