Dear Mohd Sameer Ji,


General surgery is a medical specialty that focuses on surgical procedures for common conditions, often involving organs in the abdomen, such as the appendix, gallbladder, and hernias, as well as conditions related to the skin and soft tissues. I'm happy to inform you about its coverage under Ayushman Bharat.


Ayushman Bharat and General Surgery Coverage


  • Yes, the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme does support a wide range of general surgical procedures.
  • It aims to provide cashless access to healthcare services for secondary and tertiary care to its beneficiaries.


Types of General Surgeries Covered


  • Many common general surgical procedures are covered under the scheme. This typically includes

    • Appendectomy (removal of the appendix)
    • Hernia repair surgeries
    • Cholecystectomy (removal of the gallbladder, often due to gallstones)
    • Certain surgeries for stomach ulcers
    • Removal of various cysts, lumps, and minor soft tissue procedures.

  • The scheme provides a health cover of up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for such hospitalizations.

  • The treatment is completely cashless at any of the empanelled public and private hospitals across India.
