Is Ayushman card accepted for gall bladder operation?

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Gall bladder problems can become very painful and uncomfortable, especially when patients experience stomach pain, vomiting, bloating, or difficulty eating. It is completely understandable to ask whether the Ayushman card is accepted for gall bladder operation before planning treatment and hospital admission.
