Hello,


Yes, the Ayushman Card (PM-JAY) works for various limb-related treatments, surgeries, and orthopedic procedures at empanelled hospitals


Limb-related treatments include eligible procedures for conditions such as:

  • Bone fracture treatment and fixation

  • Knee or hip replacement

  • Ligament and tendon-related procedures

  • Accident and trauma-related treatment

  • Certain orthopedic procedures

  • Other eligible medical or surgical treatments covered under the applicable PM-JAY package


Is Ayushman Card Available at This Hospital?


HexaHealth is not a hospital. We help patients connect with suitable partner hospitals and experienced doctors, including hospitals that may be empanelled under Ayushman Bharat.


If you are planning limb-related treatment, we can help you identify a suitable Ayushman-empanelled hospital and guide you through the treatment and hospital process.


Steps to Check an Ayushman Hospital


You can verify the hospital's Ayushman status by following these steps:

  1. Visit the official PM-JAY hospital search portal.

  2. Select your State.

  3. Select your District.

  4. Select Government or Private hospital type.

  5. Select the relevant speciality, such as Orthopaedics.

  6. Enter the exact hospital name if you already have one in mind.

  7. Enter Captcha.

  8. Click search.

  9. Check whether the hospital appears in the empanelled hospital list.

  10. You can also check the overall list of empanelled hospital in your district


Hospital empanelment status can change, so it is important to verify the current status before admission.


Documents to Keep Ready


Carry the following documents when visiting the hospital:

  • Ayushman Card

  • Aadhaar Card or other valid identification

  • Doctor's prescription or referral

  • Previous medical reports

  • X-rays, CT scans, MRI reports, or other relevant reports

  • Blood or other diagnostic test reports, if available

  • Previous treatment records

  • Previous discharge summary, if applicable

  • Current medicines or prescriptions

  • Referral letter, if required


Please share your city, state, hospital name, and the limb-related treatment you need. We can help you understand how to proceed with an Ayushman-empanelled hospital.


Wishing you and your family good health always.
