Note-the exact examination pattern is not clear and examination date of tier1 has also be
postponed until the further clarification but the here I am going to discuss the pattern and

After the scrapping of interview from this year ,SSC had been released notification of CGL

Now this is all about the examination pattern and syllabus.Now our main concern is medical
benefit.

Medical facilities in SSC jobs

Actually, Government of India provide CGHS facilities for their employee. The Central
Government Health Scheme (CGHS) was started under the Indian Ministry of Health and
Family Welfare in 1954 with the objective of providing comprehensive medical care facilities
to Central Government employees, pensioners and their dependents residing in CGHS
covered cities.

This facilities is one of the best for the hemophilics(as I think) where they get medicine directly
from the CGHS dispensary.  PwHs are eligible to get prophylaxis too. There is no
reimbursement type scheme for cghs card holder. The best part of cghs - they have their own
dispensaries in different cities of India. Right now there are a total of 25 cities where cghs
dispensary is available over India.

The Central Govt. Health Scheme is applicable to the following categories of people residing in
CGHS covered cities:

•  All Central Govt. Servants paid from Civil Estimates (other than those employed in Railway
• Services and those employed under Delhi Administration except members of Delhi Police Force)

•  Pensioners drawing pension from Civil Estimates and their family members (Pensioner residing in non- CGHS areas also may obtain CGHS Card from nearest CGHS covered City)

•  Members and Ex-members of Parliament

•  Judges of the Supreme Court and High Court (sitting and retired)

•  Freedom Fighters

•  Central Government Pensioners, Employees of Semi-Autonomous bodies/Semi Government Organisations

•  Accredited Journalists

•  Ex-Governors and Ex-Vice-Presidents of India

Now you  think ,Judge of Supreme Court of India ,IAS officers ,Vice President of India .Members of
Parliament get health facilities through this CGHS, hence we can easily envisage the facilities of cghs.

So the PwHs who are preparing for a job should seriously think about ssc jobs.

In SSC,   the PwHs who have disability certificate can apply in disable category and are entitled to
get reservation and relaxations.

Total 3% seat are reserved for the person with disability and 10 years age relaxation are also
entitled.

Note: please check the nature of disability like OL, OAL, BL etc before applying in disability.

OL-one leg,BL-both legs, OAL-one arm leg

SSC also conducts test for stenographer post. you should know the shorthand for this post.

Hope this article will help you too in career selection.
