Delhi ne 7.72 lakh se zyada Ayushman Bharat Health Cards issue kiye, 46,963 nagrikon ko PM-JAY ke tahat ilaj mila

New Delhi, May 28, 2026: Delhi ne healthcare access mein ek mahatvapurn milestone haasil kiya hai, jismein 7.72 lakh se zyada Ayushman Bharat Health Cards issue kiye gaye hain, jaisa ki Health Minister Pankaj Singh ne budhvaar ko ghoshit kiya. Inmein se, 46,963 labhartiyon ne pahle se hi Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (ABPM-JAY) ke tahat medical treatment haasil kiya hai, jisse shehar ki healthcare safety net mein mahatvapurn vistar hua hai. Card ki vitran do shreniyon mein vibhajit ki gayi hai: Vaya Vandana Scheme (VVS) ke tahat 2.9 lakh cards issue kiye gaye, jo vishesh roop se senior citizens par kendrit hain, aur non-VVS category ke tahat 4.81 lakh cards, jo Delhi ke eligible parivaaron ko coverage pradaan karte hain. Progress par baat karte hue, Minister Pankaj Singh ne yojana ki badhti mahatva ko shehar mein accessible healthcare ka ek mazboot stambh ke roop mein ujagar kiya. "Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY yojana Delhi mein accessible healthcare ka ek mazboot stambh ban rahi hai. Hamara focus is baat par hai ki har eligible nagrik ko seamless treatment, vistarit jagrukta, aur samay par labh pradaan kiya jaye ek mazboot healthcare network ke madhyam se," unhone kaha. ABPM-JAY framework ke tahat, har labharti ko ₹10 lakh tak ka cashless healthcare coverage prapt hai, jo ₹5 lakh Central Government dwara PM-JAY scheme ke tahat aur ₹5 lakh Delhi sarkar dwara pradaan kiya jaata hai. Is dual-layered coverage se vulnerable groups, jismein senior citizens bhi shamil hain, ke liye mazboot financial suraksha aur gunvatta wale medical services tak vistarit pahunch hai. Delhi mein yojana ki implementation ek mazboot network ke saath samarthit hai, jismein 233 empanelled hospitals shamil hain, jismein 181 private hospitals aur 52 government hospitals hain. Is vividh network ke madhyam se, cashless treatment ek vistrit medical services ke spectrum par, primary care se lekar specialized treatments tak, is baat ka dhyaan rakha jaata hai ki labharti bina financial burden ke samay par aur gunvatta wala healthcare haasil kar sakein. Minister Singh ne is baat par zor diya ki dono VVS aur non-VVS categories ke tahat cards ki vitran yojana ki overall implementation ko mazboot kar rahi hai. "Dono categories ke tahat cards ki vitran yojana ki implementation ko mazboot kar rahi hai," unhone kaha, aur yeh bhi kaha ki sarkar har eligible resident ke liye jagrukta badhane aur access ko simplify karne ke liye pratibaddh hai. Yeh ghoshna ek samay par aayi hai jab Delhi national flagship scheme ke tahat apni healthcare infrastructure ko vistarit kar raha hai, jiska uddeshya out-of-pocket expenses ko kam karna aur socio-economic groups ke across health outcomes mein sudhar karna hai. 7.72 lakh se zyada cards ki vitran aur 46,000 se zyada treatments ke saath, Delhi mein Ayushman Bharat initiative apne universal health coverage ka vaada poora kar rahi hai. ---
