Introduction:
Railway Health services provide health care to thebeneficiaries free of cost at three levels.
1. Health Unit (like primary health centers).
2. Divisional Hospitals (1st referral level).
3. Central Hospitals located at each Zonal Headquarters
(2nd referral level) which provide secondary care and to
some extent tertiary care (many of which are outsourced)
In most of the Zonal central hospitals:
None / One Psychiatrist is available, who is also
entrusted to Manage Headache , Epilepsy,Movement disorders & work in-
Medical OPD/Medical wards, managing referred
medical patients of all kinds (of course he/she is
also helped by senior physicians )

Psychiatric patients (at OPD level).
A lot of Neuropsychiatric morbidity was observed on
cursory examination in Medical Indoor and inmedical OPD patients, which were not paid due
attention or timely intervention.
