Which hospitals in Thane accept the Ayushman card for plastic surgery?

Dear Ayaz Nehal Ahmed Siddique ji,

Yes, there are hospitals in and around Thane where Ayushman/PM-JAY empanelment can be checked for plastic and reconstructive surgery. However, the important point is that Ayushman coverage depends on the exact surgery and applicable package. Cosmetic procedures done only for appearance are generally not covered, while medically necessary reconstructive procedures may be covered if the applicable package is available.

1. Bhaktivedanta Hospital and Research Institute, Mira Road

The hospital has a dedicated Plastic, Reconstructive & Cosmetic Surgery department. It provides reconstructive treatment for trauma, congenital deformities, burns, infections, tumours and other conditions, including microvascular and hand surgery.

2. Jupiter Hospital, Thane

Jupiter has a Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery department, including reconstructive surgery, post-trauma reconstruction, hand and microvascular surgery, burn reconstruction and treatment of congenital deformities.

3. Horizon Prime Hospital, Thane West

Horizon Prime has a Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery department, including reconstructive procedures for injuries, burns, hand injuries, nerve injuries and faciomaxillary trauma. 

4. Thunga Hospital

What Type of Plastic Surgery Can Be Covered?

Ayushman coverage is generally intended for medically necessary treatment rather than cosmetic enhancement.

For example, depending on the applicable package, medically necessary reconstructive surgery include treatment related to:

• Burns and burn deformities

• Accident or trauma injuries

• Reconstructive surgery after cancer treatment

• Certain congenital deformities

• Hand and tissue injuries

• Wound reconstruction

• Certain medically necessary skin grafting procedures

A cosmetic procedure performed only to improve appearance should not be assumed to be covered.

How to Check Ayushman Coverage Before Admission

Follow these steps:

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

2. Select Maharashtra.

3. Select Thane or the relevant district.

4. Search the hospital by its exact name.

5. Check whether the hospital's PM-JAY empanelment is currently active.

6. Check the relevant speciality, such as Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery.

The hospital's empanelment and available packages can change, so it is important to verify the status immediately before planned treatment.
