Extent of Cover

The benefit to the family is on a floater basis i.e. the total reimbursement of Rs.1.50 lakhs can be availed individually or collectively by members of the family. An additional sum of Rs 50,000 is provided as a buffer to take care of expenses if it exceeds the original sum i.e. Rs 1.50 lakhs per family. Excepting cost for cochlear implant surgery with auditory-verbal therapy is reimbursed by the trust up to a maximum of Rs.6.50 lakhs per case.

All transactions are cashless for covered procedures. A BPL beneficiary can go to any hospital either public or private and come out without making any payment to the hospital for the procedures covered under the scheme. The same is the case for diagnostics, if eventually the patient does not end up in undergoing the surgery or therapy.

Hospitals are mandated to conduct free health camp, thereby taking advanced evaluation at the doorstep of patient.
