Is the ABHA Card Accepted at Ashwin Hospital for Spondylosis and Pneumonia Treatment?

Hello,

Could you please share the city and state where the Ashwin Hospital is located? There may be more than one hospital with a similar name, so we need the exact location to guide you correctly regarding hospital services and Ayushman Bharat empanelment.

What is the difference between an ABHA card and an Ayushman Bharat card?

• ABHA card (Ayushman Bharat Health Account): It provides a 14-digit health account number to help you manage and share medical records digitally. It does not provide free or cashless treatment by itself.
  
  
• Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY card: Eligible beneficiaries can use it for cashless treatment of approved medical conditions and procedures at hospitals empanelled for the required treatment, subject to scheme rules.

For a patient with spondylosis or pneumonia, having an ABHA card alone does not mean the hospital bill will be covered. PM-JAY coverage depends on eligibility, hospital empanelment and the approved treatment package.

How to Check Ayushman empanelled hospital?

1. Open the official hospital search portal: PM-JAY Hospital Search.
2. Select your state.
3. Select your district.
4. First check the overall list of empanelled hospitals in the district.
5. Select Government or Private, if the option is available.
6. Select the relevant speciality, if available, based on the patient's condition.
7. Search for the exact Ashwin Hospital name.
8. Enter the captcha, if shown.
9. Click Search and confirm whether the hospital's PM-JAY empanelment is active.
10. Contact the hospital's Ayushman Mitra desk to confirm whether the required treatment is covered and whether approval is needed.

Which documents should you carry?

• Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY card or beneficiary details, if available.
• Aadhaar card or another valid identity document.
• Doctor's prescription and referral letter, if required.
• X-ray, MRI, chest X-ray or other reports related to the patient's condition.
• Previous prescriptions, discharge summaries and current medication details.
• ABHA card, if available, to help link or share medical records.

If the pneumonia patient has severe breathing difficulty, bluish lips, confusion or unusual drowsiness, seek emergency medical care immediately rather than waiting to check card coverage.

Please share the city and state of Ashwin Hospital and let us know whether you need treatment for spondylosis, pneumonia or both. We can then guide you on checking the correct hospital's Ayushman empanelment.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
Warm regards,
