In a continued push to increase the advantages of the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) to eligible residents of the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, the Health Department, in collaboration with the Social Welfare Department, organized a PMJAY Card Creation Camp on twenty second July on the Panchayat Hall in Wimberlygunj.
The camp obtained an encouraging response from the general public, with 75 Ayushman Cards efficiently generated for eligible beneficiaries. The initiative is a part of the administration’s ongoing efforts to make sure that all eligible people are capable of avail themselves of the medical health insurance advantages supplied below the Government of India’s flagship healthcare scheme.
Beneficiaries from the PHH (Priority Household) and AAY (Antyodaya Anna Yojana) ration card classes, in addition to Anganwadi Workers, Anganwadi Helpers, ASHA Workers, and senior residents aged 70 and above, are eligible to create their PMJAY playing cards. Eligible people can generate their playing cards via a number of channels — by downloading the Ayushman App BIS 2.0 from the Google Play Store, visiting the official web site https://beneficiary.nha.gov.in, or by approaching their nearest well being centre for help.
Under AB-PMJAY, every beneficiary household is entitled to cashless remedy value ₹5 lakh per 12 months for secondary and tertiary care at empanelled hospitals throughout India.
The Health Department has urged all eligible residents to get their Ayushman Cards made on the earliest and take full benefit of the great well being safety supplied below the scheme.
