The correct answer is: a) Dr. YSR Aarogyasri.
Dr. YSR Aarogyasri is a flagship health insurance scheme of the Government of Andhra Pradesh, India. It was launched in 2007 by the then Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Dr. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy. The scheme provides cashless treatment for a wide range of medical conditions to all families living below the poverty line in the state.
The scheme is funded by the state government and the central government. It is implemented by the Andhra Pradesh State Health Insurance Agency (APSHIA).
As of 2019, the scheme has covered over 7.5 crore people in Andhra Pradesh. It has been credited with providing quality healthcare to the poor and marginalized sections of the society.
The scheme has been praised by various international organizations, including the World Bank and the World Health Organization. It has also been cited as a model for other states in India to emulate.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Ayushman Bharat is a national health insurance scheme launched by the Government of India in 2018. It is not a state-specific scheme.
- PM Jan Arogya Yojana is a sub-scheme of Ayushman Bharat. It is a centrally-sponsored scheme that provides health insurance cover to poor families across India.
- YSR Kanti Velugu is a welfare scheme launched by the Government of Andhra Pradesh in 2016. It provides free eye care services to the poor in the state.
