No doubt this is unique and extraordinary scheme of its kind in the world.It covers millions of beneficiaries under its ambit.For a country whose population is in crores and people struggle hard for their two times meal ,such kind of mega health coverage scheme is a miracle in itself. Many private health insurance companies are giving the benefit of health covers to its customers, but those private companies regularly take the benefit of installment from their customers. In Ayushman Bharat health insurance scheme there is no burden of any installment on any beneficiary. It's totally zero investment health insurance scheme for the entire population of jammu and Kashmir. Now all the families of jammu and Kashmir will get the health cards for this insurance scheme from which they can take the benefits during the treatment of various health ailments.Even on the launch of this scheme lieutenant governor manoj sinha has narrated that the core agenda of government was to bring welfare and prosperity in the life of aggrieved section of society.

As we know due to our unhyegenic condition of life and faulty eating habits the number of health ailments are increasing day by day mostly people are suffering from various types of diseases and other health problems. These various health ailments are creating trouble for everyone. Those who have proper source of income can afford various facilities in different hospitals and health care centeres but for poor people it is very difficult to get rid from this tragedy in life easily. Due to lack of awareness and no financial support they usually try to live with their suffering and pain. Now with this benefit of health insurance guarantee they can get rid from their suffering. Now this scheme will work like a protective umbrella in the life of people of jammu and Kashmir. There is no doubt that this health insurance guarantee scheme can change the mindset and life of people of our region but we have to take care that it is not misused by various health centres and hospitals.proper check and monitoring is needed from government side to execute this mega welfare scheme at ground level. A transparency is needed from health centres so that the benefits of this insurance scheme should reach at the actual needy and deserving persons. Moreover provision should be made in such a manner that there is need of less red tapism and verification process at the part of the patient or aggrieved people. No doubt this scheme has created a new dawn in jammu and Kashmir. There is a ray of hope in the people. Hopefully in this year people will be benefitted at large with this historic health care insurance scheme. Health is the biggest capital of humans people should also pay full attention for their health. If every man takes care of his health, then dependency on our hospitals will be automatically reduced.
