Central scheme
National Health Authority
Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY
What the scheme does
A public health-assurance scheme implemented through the National Health Authority framework.
Who it is for
Families covered under the scheme’s official beneficiary database and current state implementation. Eligibility is checked through the official beneficiary-identification route; it is not a universal health-insurance enrolment.
Current benefit
Health cover of up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for eligible hospitalisation under the scheme framework, usable at empanelled hospitals. The official beneficiary portal determines coverage and current state implementation.
How to access it
Check eligibility through the official PM-JAY beneficiary route or authorised facilitation channel. Eligible beneficiaries use their verified scheme identity at an empanelled hospital; do not rely on unofficial enrolment agents.
Conditions to know
Beneficiary identity and eligibility are verified through the official system; accepted documents and state processes can differ. Check the official portal before visiting a hospital.
Exam answer in one line
Remember: National Health Authority; eligible-family hospitalisation cover; ₹5 lakh per family per year; empanelled hospitals; beneficiary identification—not universal enrolment.
An immunisation initiative focused on reaching children and pregnant women who are missed or partially covered by routine immunisation.
Who it is for
It focuses on children below two years and pregnant women who are unvaccinated or partly vaccinated, especially in low-coverage and hard-to-reach areas.
Current benefit
Vaccines under the Universal Immunisation Programme are provided free at government health facilities, sub-centres and outreach sessions. Mission Indradhanush is a catch-up drive to reach people who missed routine immunisation.
How to access it
No separate benefit form is required. Check the routine immunisation schedule with an ASHA, Anganwadi worker, ANM, PHC, CHC or government hospital and attend the listed session with the available vaccination record.
Conditions to know
Carry the child’s or beneficiary’s available immunisation record when possible. Eligibility comes from the vaccination schedule and missed-dose status; vaccines are given through government service points.
Exam answer in one line
Remember: catch-up immunisation under UIP; children below two and pregnant women; launched in December 2014; free vaccines through public health delivery.
