Dear Yashika Lekra ji

Under the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY), eligible beneficiaries can receive health coverage of up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for approved medical treatments and surgeries at PM-JAY empanelled hospitals.


The coverage amount remains the same across India wherever the PM-JAY scheme is implemented, and eligible beneficiaries can avail cashless treatment at empanelled government and private hospitals.


What Does the ₹5 Lakh Coverage Include?


The Ayushman Card generally covers


  • Cashless hospitalisation.

  • Approved surgeries and medical procedures.

  • Doctor's consultation during hospital admission.

  • ICU charges, if required.

  • Medicines and medical consumables during hospitalisation.

  • Diagnostic tests included in the approved treatment package.

  • Operation theatre and anaesthesia charges.

  • Pre-hospitalisation expenses (as per PM-JAY guidelines).

  • Post-hospitalisation expenses (as per PM-JAY guidelines).


What Is Not Usually Covered?


Generally, the following are not covered:

  • Routine OPD consultations.

  • Health check-ups without hospital admission.

  • Cosmetic or non-medically necessary procedures.

  • Treatments not included in the approved PM-JAY package.


How to Use the Ayushman Card?


To avail cashless treatment


  • Visit a PM-JAY empanelled hospital.

  • Meet the Ayushman Mitra (Help Desk).

  • Carry your Ayushman Card and Aadhaar Card.

  • The hospital will verify your eligibility and obtain the required approval.

  • Once approved, eligible treatment can be provided cashlessly.


How to Check Whether the Hospital Accepts Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY)?


Before taking treatment, verify whether the hospital is empanelled under PM-JAY.

    • State
