Hello,


Yes, empanelled Ayushman Card (AB-PMJAY) hospitals in Kolkata offer treatment for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD). The treatment typically falls under the Ophthalmology / Retina care packages covered by the scheme.


How to check Ayushman Card hospital coverage


  1. Open the official PM-JAY Hospital Search portal.

  2. Select West Bengal as the State.

  3. Select Kolkata as the District.

  4. Check the overall PM-JAY empanelled hospital list for the district.

  5. Select Government or Private hospital, if applicable.

  6. Select Ophthalmology (eye treatment) as the specialty.

  7. Search for the exact hospital name.

  8. Enter the captcha, if shown.

  9. Click Search and check whether the hospital is currently active under PM-JAY.

  10. Contact the hospital’s Ayushman Mitra/PM-JAY desk. Ask whether your exact ARMD treatment, including any required eye injections or other procedures, is covered and whether pre-authorisation is needed.
