Bhagwant Mann Government Launches Health Card Scheme
According to the state government, the scheme has been designed as a universal health benefit without restrictions based on the number of family members or social category. Officials said the objective is to ensure that all residents have access to quality healthcare without worrying about the cost of treatment.
Treatment Up to ₹10 Lakh Per Family
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said the initiative reflects the government’s commitment to making healthcare more affordable and accessible for every household. The scheme is expected to cover a wide range of medical services at empanelled hospitals, helping families avoid significant out-of-pocket expenses during medical emergencies.
The government believes the programme will strengthen the state’s healthcare system by expanding access to treatment and encouraging more people to seek timely medical care. Authorities are expected to provide additional details regarding the enrolment process, eligible hospitals and operational guidelines as the scheme is rolled out.
The announcement has been presented as part of the government’s broader efforts to improve public welfare and expand social security measures in Punjab. Officials have expressed confidence that the health card scheme will provide financial protection to families while improving healthcare access across urban and rural areas.
Further information on implementation and beneficiary services is expected to be released by the state government in the coming days.
