The Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY)-Ayushman Bharat provides:

Health insurance coverage to poor families
Free essential medicines
Vaccination drives
Ambulance services

The correct answer is: a) Health insurance coverage to poor families.

The Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY)-Ayushman Bharat is a health insurance scheme launched by the Government of India in 2018. It provides free health insurance coverage to poor families up to ₹5 lakhs per family per year. The scheme covers a wide range of medical treatments, including hospitalization, surgery, and medicines.

The scheme is implemented through the Public Health Insurance Fund (PHIF), which is a trust fund managed by the National Health Authority (NHA). The PHIF is financed by the central government, state governments, and contributions from corporates and individuals.

The scheme has been well-received by the public and has been credited with providing access to quality healthcare to millions of people. However, the scheme has also faced some challenges, such as delays in reimbursements and difficulty in accessing hospitals.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option b) is not covered by the scheme.
  • Option c) is covered by the Universal Immunization Programme (UIP), which is a separate government scheme.
  • Option d) is covered by the 108 Ambulance Service, which is a separate government scheme.
