Arogya Dhara 2.0 was launched by the Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on August 18, 2021.
This is in order to increase the reach of Ayushman Bharat – Jan Arogya Yojana.
Arogya Dhara 2.0 also seeks to create more awareness regarding the Ayushman Bharat Scheme.
On the occasion, the minister launched three initiatives namely
Adhikar Patra,
Ayushman Mitra and
Abhinandan Patra.
Adhikar Patra will be issued to the beneficiaries when they will be hospitalised for treatment under the PM-JAY scheme.
This Patra will make beneficiaries aware of their rights in a way that they can claim free and cashless health care services.
Abhinandan Patra is a ‘thank you note’.
It will be issued to the beneficiaries when beneficiaries will be discharged after their treatment under PM-JAY.
Ayushman Mitra is an initiative launched to encourage citizens to participate in motivating eligible beneficiaries to get verified under PM-JAY scheme.
It also seeks to help beneficiaries to get the Ayushman Cards issued.
