Perhaps you are associated with some beneficial and welfare scheme run by the Center and the State? The government runs many schemes to help those sections who are actually needy and economically weak. The number of such people is still visible in the country even today. Therefore, apart from education, employment, insurance, and pension, the Central Government is also running a scheme which is a health scheme. The name of this scheme is Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana-Mukhyamantri Yojana. This is a health scheme and Ayushman cards are made in it, but do you know whether there is free treatment under this scheme or if the patient has to pay money? If not, then let us know about this...
First know about the eligibility:-
If we talk about eligibility, then according to the eligibility list, an Ayushman card can be made for those people who...
Work in the unorganized sector
If there is someone with a disability in your family
If you work as a daily wage laborer
If you are destitute or a tribal
Those who live in rural areas
If you come from a Scheduled Caste or Tribe etc.
Who pays for the treatment?
Actually, under this Ayushman Bharat Scheme, Ayushman cards are made first for eligible people. After this, the card holder can go to any hospital and get his treatment done.
At the same time, know here that the government bears the entire cost of treatment and the Ayushman card holder does not need to pay any money. This is because through this card you can get free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh in the listed hospitals.
