Jharkhand Cabinet approves health insurance scheme
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|January 22, 2025
Chief Minister Hemant Soren presided over an important Jharkhand Cabinet meeting here on Tuesday in which 18 key proposals, including health insurance policy for state employees and pensioners, were approved.
The meeting marked significant progress in various sectors, with decisions aimed at enhancing healthcare, legal services, and welfare programs across the state.
A major highlight of the meeting was the approval of the revised health insurance policy for state employees and pensioners.
The scheme will provide financial coverage of up to Rs 5 lakh annually for common illnesses and Rs 10 lakh for critical illnesses.
Although the initial resolution for the scheme was issued on 31 July, 2023, its implementation was delayed due to certain errors.
These issues have now been resolved, and the updated file has been submitted to the Cabinet Secretariat.
The government is also considering extending the deadline for beneficiaries whose bank accounts are not linked with Aadhaar, as payments to such individuals have been halted since January.
