The CEO of National Health Authority (NHA) R S Sharma said Jharkhand is doing excellent work under the Pradhan Mantri -Jan Arogya Yojna (PM-JAY) Ayushman Bharat scheme and the model adopted here will be replicated in other states, too.
Sharma, who paid a visit to PICU and other ICUs at Ranchi district hospital which have been constructed with the the hospital received under the scheme, said: “The very purpose of the scheme has fructified in Ranchi as the district hospital has been able to raise better Services with the money they received under the scheme and this model will be taken up for national implementation.”
The aim behind the launch of the scheme is to provide quality healthcare to all especially the poor as they lose everything once someone from their family develops a life-threatening disease. To ensure that more and more beneficiaries are treated under the scheme, we have to ensure that they are provided with documents be it a smart card, a golden card or any piece of paper which could help them in availing hospital facilities free of cost.
