The Chief Minister Health Scheme launched by the Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab government is emerging as a major relief for economically weaker sections, offering free medical treatment worth up to ₹10 lakh. The scheme has significantly reduced the financial burden on poor families, ensuring that quality healthcare is accessible without worry or hardship.
Bhagwant Mann: ₹10 Lakh Free Treatment Under CM Health Scheme Proves a Lifeline for the Poor in Punjab
Under the AAP Ka Sehat Card initiative, beneficiaries can avail themselves of cashless treatment at empanelled hospitals across the state. The scheme covers a wide range of serious and critical illnesses, allowing patients to focus on recovery rather than the cost of treatment or administrative hassles.
A heartwarming moment was witnessed when an elderly beneficiary expressed deep gratitude and heartfelt blessings for Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, calling the health card a true blessing in his life. He said the scheme removed the fear of medical expenses and gave dignity and security to the poor during times of illness.
Officials said the scheme has already helped thousands of families who earlier struggled to afford expensive treatments. By eliminating out-of-pocket expenses, the government aims to prevent families from falling into debt due to health emergencies.
Punjab government has emphasized that healthcare is a basic right
The Punjab government has emphasized that healthcare is a basic right, not a privilege, and continues to expand the reach of the CM Health Scheme to ensure no eligible citizen is left out. Awareness drives are also being conducted to help people understand the benefits and enrollment process.
With initiatives like the ₹10 lakh health cover, the Mann government is strengthening Punjab’s public healthcare system and moving closer to its goal of inclusive, affordable, and people-centric healthcare for all.
