		<title>Flying For The Disabled/Critically Ill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When transferring my disabled and un-well FIL to Secunderabad for treatment, we were faced with a problem: Should we fly to Hyderabad or take the train? The fare difference was hardly much but the time saved and possible reduction in trauma to patient was substantial. We decided to fly to Hyderabad and started inquiring about [...]]]></description>

		<title>CGHS Temporary Permit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I mentioned earlier, my FIL (DM2, CRF, HTN, Hb+) suffered from Intra-Cranial Hemorrhage (ICH) which left him paralyzed on the left-side of his body (Left Hemi-Paresis) and the ensuing treatment caused his kidney problem (End State Renal Disease - ESRD) to aggravate and become Complete Renal Failure (CRF).

		<title>Bigger The Company, Harder They Fall</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Reliance Infocomm&#8217;s latest stunt has fallen on it&#8217;s face and become the gaffe of the year. Ok, maybe gaffe of the month.
It activated &#8216;Ring-Back-Tone (RBT)&#8217; for all customers without any prior intimation/permission. To my discerning musical ears, a nondescript song being played at 2.4 kbps-mono over a 1mm speaker is probably worse than Chinese water [...]]]></description>

		<title>CGHS Medical Claim Reimbursement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Delightfully simple, the &#8216;Medical 2004 Form for Reimbursement of Medical Claims of CGHS beneficieries&#8217; is a breeze to fill-in and the submission process is extraordinarily simple. NOT.
 If your near and dear is a CGHS beneficiary and received emergency in-patient treatment at a CGHS &#8216;non-recognised&#8217; hospital, you are generally advised by well-wishers to buy yourself [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Winner Takes It All</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Take the talent shows - so much in vogue in India.
First you invite the industry pundits to join the panel of judges. You make them do the sweaty work of scraping the dirt, trying to find raw gemstones.  And when they have fairly narrowed the selection based on their years of experience, you completely [...]]]></description>

		<title>Blood Bank Red Tape</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sourcing blood is complicated. Thankfully most of us never have to face the travails that this entails. Chronicled briefly below, is my experience in tackling the process of obtaining this life saver. A simple lesson learnt - donate blood, at-least once a year.

My FIL suffered multiple complications including Intra-cranial hemorrhage, Kidney failure, reduced liver functionality [...]]]></description>
