Which hospitals in Bhubaneswar accept Ayushman card for foreskin surgery?

Hello,

Yes, foreskin surgery, also called circumcision, is covered under Ayushman Bharat.

How to check whether a hospital accepts the Ayushman Card?

1. Visit the official Ayushman Bharat hospital search portal.
2. Select Odisha as the state.
3. Select Khordha as the district for Bhubaneswar.
4. Choose the hospital type, such as government or private, if the option is available.
5. Select the relevant speciality, such as General Surgery or Urology.
6. Enter the hospital name if you want to check a specific hospital.
7. Enter the captcha code and click Search.
8. Check the hospital's empanelment status and listed speciality.
9. Contact the hospital's Ayushman Mitra or scheme help desk to confirm whether foreskin surgery is covered under your card and whether pre-approval is required.

Which documents should you carry?

• Ayushman Bharat card or PM-JAY/GJAY card, as applicable.
• Aadhaar card or another accepted identity document.
• Ration card, if available or requested by the hospital.
• Doctor's prescription and consultation papers.
• Any relevant medical reports or previous treatment records.
• Registered mobile number for beneficiary verification, if required.

What should you do before the operation?

• Consult a urologist or general surgeon to confirm whether surgery is necessary.
• Ask the hospital whether the procedure is approved for cashless treatment under your scheme.
• Confirm that pre-authorization has been approved before proceeding with planned admission.
• Do not assume that every type of foreskin procedure is covered just because the hospital accepts Ayushman cards.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
