Ayushman Card e-KYC: The Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY), one of India’s largest health schemes, aims to offer cashless medical treatment worth up to Rs 5 lakh per year. While millions of people are already benefiting from this scheme, the government has recently issued a crucial update.
To continue receiving the benefits of Ayushman Card Yojana, beneficiaries must complete their e-KYC (electronic know-your-customer) process, Jagran.com reported. Through e-KYC, the government ensures that only eligible beneficiaries receive the benefits of the scheme, preventing fraud.
