Which among the following statements is NOT correct for the Ayushman Bharat - Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → It provides one-time health cover of Rs. 3 lakh per family for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization to poor and vulnerable sections of the population. **
- Ayushman Bharat – PMJAY provides health cover of Rs. 5 lakh per family per year, not Rs. 3 lakh.
- Other statements are correct:
- Includes 3 days pre-hospitalization and 15 days post-hospitalization coverage
- No cap on family size, age, or gender
- Benefits are portable across the country
So the incorrect part is the amount of coverage (Rs. 3 lakh).
