Govt Health Scheme Hack: Are You Missing ₹5 Lakh? Here’s How to Get It Right Now from your Ayushman Card – Even If You’ve Never Used the Card Before!

What Is the Ayushman Bharat Yojana?
The Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) is a flagship health insurance scheme by the Government of India.
⇒Provides up to ₹5 lakh per year per family
⇒Covers 10 crore+ families
⇒Free treatment in 25,000+ hospitals
But most people never claim their full ₹5 lakh benefit — either because they don’t know how, or hospitals trick them into partial coverage.
Here’s the Hidden Trick Hospitals Don’t Tell You
Step 1: Check if you’re eligible at:
https://pmjay.gov.in
Step 2: Go to any empaneled private hospital (they get paid by the govt)
→ Ask directly for “cashless package treatment under PM-JAY”
Step 3: Most hospitals hide high-value treatments
→ Ask them to show you the PM-JAY treatment package list (it’s your right)
Step 4: Use your card for multiple family members in the same year
→ Example: ₹3 lakh for bypass surgery (father), ₹1.5 lakh delivery (wife), ₹50,000 injury treatment (you)
Step 5: If the hospital denies, file complaint directly via:
- Toll-free: 14555
- Or visit: https://grievance.nha.gov.in
You Must Know This
⇒NO cash required: It’s 100% cashless
⇒Valid in any state (you can use Bihar card in Delhi or in Uttar Pradesh)
⇒There is No age/gender limit
⇒Even Rs. 10 treatment is covered – So use it!
Scam Alert: Don’t Fall To Agents
⇒Don’t pay ₹100-₹500 to agents for “Ayushman card”
⇒It’s completely FREE. You can apply online or at Common Service Centers (CSCs)
How to Check Your Name Right Now
⇒Go to https://pmjay.gov.in
⇒Click ‘Am I Eligible?’
⇒Enter mobile number / ration card / Aadhaar
⇒Your family info + hospital list will appear
Last Secret Tip
Most government hospitals don’t use the ₹5 lakh limit fully. Go to a high-rated private empaneled hospital and demand full benefit.
