Question 3 of 5
3. Question
1 pointsConsider the following statements regarding Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY):
Correct
Answer: B
Explanation:
Statement 1 is Incorrect
- The Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) is designed to provide financial protection for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization, not primary healthcare.
- Primary healthcare services (such as outpatient consultations, immunizations, maternal care, etc.) are delivered through the other component of Ayushman Bharat — Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs).
- PM-JAY offers coverage up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for hospital-based services like surgeries, cancer treatment, and other specialized care.
Statement 2 is Correct
- The scheme targets the bottom 40% of the Indian population, identified as deprived and vulnerable groups in rural and urban areas.
- This identification is done based on deprivation and occupational criteria from the Socio-Economic Caste Census (SECC) 2011.
- Rural criteria include households without shelter, landless families, families with disabled members and no adult earning member, etc.
- Urban criteria include occupational categories such as rag pickers, domestic workers, sweepers, and others.
Statement 3 is Incorrect
- PM-JAY services are provided through a network of empanelled hospitals, which includes both public (government) and private sector hospitals across India.
- In fact, a significant portion of hospitalizations under PM-JAY has occurred in private hospitals, especially in areas where public infrastructure is lacking.
- Beneficiaries can choose to get treatment in any empanelled hospital, whether public or private, based on convenience and availability.
Statement 4 is Correct
- One of the key features of PM-JAY is its universality and inclusiveness within the eligible population.
- There is no cap on the number of family members, age, or gender. This ensures that large families and elderly individuals are fully covered under the ₹5 lakh annual limit.
- This is a major improvement over earlier health insurance schemes that had strict limits on the number of beneficiaries per household.
