Hello,


PMJAY, or Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, is a flagship government scheme that provides health insurance coverage to financially vulnerable families. Here's information regarding claiming insurance under PMJAY for eye surgery


Eligibility for Eye Surgery Under PMJAY Insurance


  • The Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme generally covers a wide range of surgical procedures, including many types of eye surgeries.
  • Common eye surgeries like cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, and treatment for certain retinal conditions are typically included in the pre-defined treatment packages under PMJAY.
  • To claim benefits, you must be an eligible PMJAY beneficiary, and the surgery must be performed at a hospital empanelled under the PMJAY scheme.


Important Points to Consider


  • Check Eligibility : Ensure your family is listed as a beneficiary under the PMJAY scheme. You can check this online or at a PMJAY kiosk.
  • Empanelled Hospital : The eye surgery must be conducted at a hospital that is registered and empanelled with the PMJAY scheme.
  • Pre-authorization : For planned surgeries, hospitals usually need to obtain pre-authorization from the scheme authorities before the procedure.
  • Required Documents : Keep your Aadhaar card and PMJAY e-card or registration details handy for verification at the hospital.
