Ayushman Bharat health and Wellness Center

Ayushman Bharat (AB) is an attempt to move from a selective approach to health care to deliver comprehensive range of services spanning preventive, promotive, curative, rehabilitative and palliative care. It has two components which are complementary to each other.

Under its first component, 1,50,000 Health & Wellness Centres (HWCs) will be created to deliver Comprehensive Primary Health Care, that is universal and free to users, with a focus on wellness and the delivery of an expanded range of services closer to the community.

The second component is the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) which provides health insurance cover of Rs. 5 lakhs per year to over 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for seeking secondary and tertiary care.

What are the Ayushman Bharat eligibility?

We have listed all the eligibility requirement criteria for all Rural and Urban peoples. You can check it below.

Eligibility Criteria for Rural and Urban People under PMJAY Scheme

Like we know, over 10 crore families across the country will be provided basic health care under the PMJAY scheme. This facility is mainly for the poor and the families with lower middle income. The health coverage provided is of INR 5 lakh per family.

Among the 10 crore families, almost 8 crore families belong to the rural areas while the remaining are from the urban areas. If we break the statistics even further, the scheme will be beneficial to over 50 crore individuals.

Now, just like any other health plan, PMJAY scheme too has certain pre-conditions. Depending on these pre-conditions, it picks who can avail the health coverage benefits. When it comes to rural areas, the eligibility criteria mainly depends on the individuals’ living conditions, income, and other deprivations. Whereas for the urban areas, it is based on each individual’s occupation.

PMJAY Rural

According to the 71st round of the National Sample Survey Organisation, over 85.9% of people in rural areas do not have access to basic healthcare plans. Moreover, 24% of the rural population seeks healthcare facilities by borrowing money.

This is where PMJAY scheme comes in handy. It helps these people avoid getting into a debt trap and avail health facilities. This scheme is economically beneficial to underprivileged households. Also, the families enrolled under the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) will be covered under the PMJAY scheme.

In the rural areas, the PMJAY health facility is available to –

• People belonging to scheduled caste and scheduled tribe families
• Households with no male member between the age of 16 years and 59 years
• Beggars and those surviving on alms
• Families with no individual between the age of 16 years and 59 years
• Households with at least one physically challenged member and no healthy adult individual
• Landless families who make a living by working as casual manual labourers
• Primitive tribal communities
• Legally released bonded labourers
• People living in one-room makeshift houses with no proper walls or roof
• Manual scavenger families

PMJAY Urban

Much like the rural areas and as per the 71st round of the National Sample Survey Organisation, over 82% of urban families do not have access to adequate healthcare insurance. Furthermore, over 18% of the urban population avails health facilities by borrowing money in one form or another.

With the PMJAY scheme, these people can avail healthcare services, as the funding provided is of INR 5 lakh per family. According to the Socio-Economic Caste Census 2011, PMJAY in the urban areas is beneficial to workers’ families. Also, the families enrolled under the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) will be covered under the PMJAY scheme.

In the urban areas, PMJAY scheme can be availed mainly by –

• Washerman/ Chowkidars
• Rag Pickers
• Mechanics, electricians, and repair workers
• Domestic help
• Sanitation workers, gardeners, and sweepers
• Home-based artisans and handicraft workers
• Tailors
• Cobblers, hawkers, and people providing services by working on streets or pavements
• Plumbers, masons, construction workers, porters, welders, painters, and security guards
• Transport workers such as drivers, conductors, helpers, cart, or rickshaw pullers
• Assistants, peons of a small organization, delivery men, shopkeepers and waiters

If the individual got his/her Mobile number or Ration card number captured during this drive, only then it will show results on the portal. If the individual got his details captured during the ADCD drive and still no results are displayed, then the “SECC Name” option should be used for searching.

b) SECC Name: An individual can search if he/she is eligible for PMJAY using his details as per the SECC database such as Name, Father’s Name, Gender, State etc. Even now, if no results are displayed, then the user should contact a nearby Ayushmaan Mitra.
