    1L benefited under PMJAY in one month of launch: Nadda

    Nearly a month after the rollout of the Center's PMJAY health insurance scheme, 1 lakh people have availed the benefits of the ambitious programme, Union Health Minister, JP Nadda, said yesterday. The Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (previously Ayushman Bharat), touted as the world's largest health insurance programme, was launched pan-India by the Prime Minister from Jharkhand on September 23.

    Center wants benefits of the scheme to reach everyone: Nadda

    आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi जी ने 23 सितंबर को प्रधानमंत्री जन आरोग्य योजना का शुभारंभ किया जिसके 1 महीने के अंदर 1 लाख लोगों ने इस योजना का लाभ उठाया है। आने वाले समय में समाज के अंतिम पायदान के व्यक्ति को इस योजना का लाभ दिलाया जा सके इसके लिए हम कृत संकल्पित हैं pic.twitter.com/s7pUYiaL2L

    Scheme provides Rs. 5L health-cover for secondary, tertiary care hospitalization

    The scheme is expected to benefit up to 55cr people, providing them an annual health cover of Rs. 5L for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization through a network of Empaneled Health Care Providers. There's no cap on family-size and age in the scheme. On October 5, Indu Bhushan, CEO of National Health Agency, said around 38,000 people have availed the benefits of the scheme.

    Total 4 states and UTs have not opted for PMJAY

    The Health Ministry has said the scheme will help in reducing expenditure on hospitalizations and help mitigate the financial risk arising out of catastrophic health episodes. Over 9,000 hospitals have been empaneled for the scheme, and 32 states and Union Territories have signed MoUs with the Center and will implement the programme. Telangana, Odisha, Delhi, and Kerala have not opted for the scheme.
