ECHS AND AYUSHMAN PMJAY CARD REGARDING
Dear veterans,
There is a new Medical card PM JAY is introduced by central Government
for all aged 70yrs and above. There is a doubt among Ex-Servicemen
whether ESM are eligible for PMJAY card.
In this regard , our ECHS Authority has released an Advisory .
“ ECHS follows CGHS
guidelines as per policy in VAGUE, the veteran is not authorized to get the facilities both from ECHS and Central Govt/ State Govt/
PSUs/ PMF funded scheme simultaneously .
The recent PMJAY also has a clause
stating that if any ECHS
beneficiary joins PMJAY, he has to
forgo his ECHS membership and it is
IRREVERSABLE .
Hence, medical facilities both from ECHS AND PMJAY is not entitled. “
The non ECHS members can
join PMJAY scheme. They are advised to
join the scheme PMJAY immediately. 70 yrs
and above can get free medical
treatment up to 5 Lakes per year in any Govt
or Private Hospitals with this Card/.
