Under this scheme, all senior citizens aged 70 and above, regardless of their ration card status, will receive free medical coverage of up to Rs. 5 lakh, a testament to our value on your health and well-being.
Additionally, senior citizens aged 70 years or above from families covered under the AB-PMJAY scheme will receive an extra top-up cover of Rs. 5 lakh, separate from those provided to family members below 70. Eligible senior citizens will be issued a special card under the AB-PMJAY scheme.
