Hello,

Medical procedures related to women’s health can naturally create emotional stress and financial concerns for patients and families. It is completely understandable to ask whether Dilation and Curettage (D&C) treatment may be available under the Ayushman Bharat scheme.

What Is Dilation and Curettage (D&C)?

Dilation and Curettage, commonly called D&C, is a gynecological procedure in which doctors gently clean or remove tissue from inside the uterus.

Doctors may recommend D&C for conditions such as :

• Heavy bleeding
• Miscarriage-related care
• Abnormal uterine bleeding
• Diagnostic evaluation
• Removal of retained tissue

The exact reason for the procedure depends on the patient’s medical condition.

Can D&C Be Done Under Ayushman Bharat?

Yes, if :

• The patient is eligible under Ayushman Bharat – PMJAY
• The hospital is empanelled under PMJAY
• The procedure is medically necessary
• Package approval is completed

then selected gynecological procedures, including D&C in eligible cases, may be available under cashless treatment at empanelled hospitals.

Coverage may include :

• Hospital admission
• Procedure charges
• OT expenses
• Doctor consultation during admission
• Basic investigations related to treatment

Final approval depends on :

• Patient eligibility
• Hospital empanelment
• PMJAY package verification
• Gynecologist assessment

Which Doctors Usually Perform D&C?

These tests help determine the need for the procedure and treatment planning.

These symptoms should not be ignored.
