Ayushman Bharat
Ayushman Bharat is a flagship health initiative launched by the Government of India in 2018. It aims to provide affordable healthcare to over 500 million people, particularly those from economically weaker sections. The program offers health insurance coverage of up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization.
The initiative consists of two main components: the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY), which provides health insurance, and the Health and Wellness Centers (HWCs), which focus on preventive healthcare and primary services. Together, these components aim to improve access to quality healthcare across the country.
