Govt-provided insurance coverage set to double to ₹10L
Hindustan Times Delhi
|February 22, 2025
How will it benefit Delhi residents
NEW DELHI: Delhi residents may soon see their government-provided health insurance coverage double from ₹5 lakh to ₹10 lakh, with the newly elected Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government set to implement the Centre's Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) in the Capital.
For a decade, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government relied on mohalla clinics and the Delhi Arogya Kosh scheme for free health care, declining to adopt AB-PMJAY. Now, in a major policy shift, chief minister Rekha Gupta has announced that Delhi will integrate with the central scheme, with the state adding a ₹5 lakh top-up, bringing total coverage to ₹10 lakh per family.
A memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the Delhi government and the National Health Authority (NHA) is expected soon, paving the way for implementation.
