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.

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.
