J&K people can register, download golden health cards online
Srinagar, July 29 :Jammu and Kashmir government has developed an online facility for the people to register Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY)-SEHAT scheme cards from their homes.
The people have to visit the website setu.pmjay.gov.in and register themselves with details of ration cards issued by the Food and Supply Department, J&K and Aadhar Card and download their Golden cards.
The initiative has been taken to ensure all the citizens get golden cards which provide 5 Lakh health insurance cover.
State Health Agency (SHA) recently rolled out an ambitious door-to-door exercise to achieve 100 percent saturation under the Ayushman Bharat PMJAY SEHAT scheme by the end of August month.
Under the initiative of ‘Gaon Gaon Ayushman, State Health Agency (SHA) has also started ’ to reach out to even last mile villages which remain cut off from the rest of the world due to adverse weather conditions so as to percolate the benefits of the scheme down to every beneficiary.
AB PM-JAY-SEHAT scheme has crossed a major milestone of providing 5 lakh free treatments to the people of J&K UT recently. This Scheme has become a ray of hope for poor families who couldn’t afford health treatment at high-end medical institutes of the country.
A special initiative was also launched recently for women and their families associated with JKRLM to provide them free treatment.
AB PM-JAY- SEHAT Scheme in Jammu and Kashmir provides health insurance cover of Rs 5 lakh per family per year to all the residents at empanelled hospitals.
The scheme covers up to three days of pre-hospitalization and fifteen days of post-hospitalization expenses including diagnostics and medicines.
