Objectives of the Scheme

Ayushman Bharat Pradhanmantri Jan Arogya Yojna AB-PMJAY aims to reduce catastrophic health expenditure, improve access to quality health care, reduce unmet needs and reduce out of pocket healthcare expenditures of poor and vulnerable families falling under the deprivation criteria of D1, D2, D3, D4, D5 and D7, Automatically Included category and broadly 11 defined occupational un-organised workers (in Urban Sector) of the Socio-Economic Caste Census (SECC) database of the State/ UT along with the estimated existing RSBY Beneficiary Families not figuring in the SECC Database. These eligible AB-PMJAY beneficiary families

will be provided coverage for secondary, tertiary and day care procedures (as applicable) for treatment of diseases and medical conditions through a network of Empaneled Health Care Providers (EHCP).

Package Rates

Insurer shall reimburse claims of EHCPs based on package rates determined as follows:

  • If package rate for a medical treatment or surgical procedure requiring hospitalization or Daycare treatment (as applicable) is fixed in the HBP, then the package rate so fixed shall apply for the policy cover period.
  • If package rate for a surgical procedure requiring hospitalization or Daycare treatment (as applicable) is not listed in the HBP, then the Insurer may pre-authorise an appropriate amount based on rates for similar procedures defined in the list, or based on other applicable national or state health insurance schemes such as CGHS. In case of medical care, the rate will be calculated on per day basis as specified in the package list except for special inputs like High end radiological diagnostic and High-end histopathology (Biopsies) and advanced serology investigations packages or some other special inputs existing in the HBP (or are released by NHA in future) which can be clubbed with medical packages.
  • AB PM-JAY is a cashless scheme, where no beneficiary should be made to pay for availing treatment in any EHCP. However, upon exhaustion of the wallet, or if the treatment cost exceeds the benefit coverage amount available with the beneficiary families then the liability for such remaining treatment cost as per the package rates defined in the HBP list will not be of the insurer. Beneficiary and SHA (through ISA/TPA) will need to be clearly communicated in advance about the additional payment at the start of such treatment.
  • In case a beneficiary is required to undertake multiple surgical procedures in one OT session, the procedure with highest rate shall be considered as the primary package and reimbursed at 100%, thereupon the 2nd surgical procedure shall be reimbursed at 50% of package rate, 3rd and subsequent surgical procedures shall be reimbursed at 25% of the package rate.

  • Certain packages as mentioned in the HBP master will only be reserved for Public EHCPs as decided by NHA. SHAs may permit availing these packages in private EHCPs only after a referral from a public EHCP is made.
