- Maa Yojana introduced at Ayushman Heart Care Center for free heart surgeries.
- Eligible beneficiaries include previous Chiranjeevi cardholders and Jan Aadhar cardholders.
- A new ward has been established to manage increased patient demands effectively.
Ayushman Heart Care Center has recently initiated the Maa Yojana, part of the Chief Minister’s Ayushman Arogya Yojana. This scheme aims to provide free heart surgery services to individuals holding Chiranjeevi and Jan Aadhar cards.
With an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 heart patients availing services annually at the hospital, the increasing pressure on facilities has led to an expansion of resources, which includes the opening of a new ward dedicated to this scheme. The director of the hospital has confirmed that all patients registered under this government initiative will receive comprehensive benefits.
This initiative is a significant step towards addressing the healthcare needs of economically weaker sections, ensuring that they have access to necessary heart care without the burden of costs. Patients looking for assistance can visit the Ayushman Heart Care Center and avail themselves of the surgeries, provided they meet eligibility criteria.
