Illness never comes without warning and when a medical emergency happens suddenly, the biggest concern of every family is to find a good and affordable hospital. In such difficult times, 'Ayushman Bharat Yojana' of the Government of India comes as a big relief. Under this scheme, eligible beneficiaries get free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh annually. This card acts as a very strong financial security shield for the poor and middle class.

However, a big practical problem in availing this facility is that Ayushman card is not valid in every small and big hospital of the city. If you do not know in which specific hospitals in your area treatment is possible with this card, then you may have to face a lot of trouble at the last moment.

In which hospitals am I getting treatment through Ayushman card?

During a medical emergency, every second is precious. At that time, instead of taking care of the patient, if the attendant has to wander from hospital to hospital asking whether the Ayushman card is valid there or not, then the situation becomes very stressful. The most direct solution to avoid this mental trouble and wastage of time is to save in advance the information about all the listed hospitals near your house, which are included in the panel of this scheme. If you already have the list of these hospitals, then in times of crisis you will be able to take the patient directly to the right place without any delay.

Digital way to find hospital

To get this list of hospitals, you do not need to visit any government office or get any recommendation. This entire system has now been made transparent and digital. Using your smartphone, you can see the complete list of hospitals according to your state, district and area on your screen in a few minutes. Every person who has an Ayushman card should know this process.
