Revolutionising health insurance
The National Health Policy (NHP) of 2017 had listed among its foremost objectives, the achievement of universal health coverage. Achieving a significant reduction in out-of-pocket expenditure due to health care costs was another key objective. Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri – Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY) was conceived out of this vision to move towards a more holistic approach to healthcare service delivery.
