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/.
