INTRODUCTION Ayushman Bharat Yojana or Ayushman Bharat – Pradhan Mantri Jan Aarogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY). Ayushman Bharat is a fundamental restructuring of the manner in which beneficiaries access healthcare services at the primary, secondary and tertiary care levels. It represents a transition from segmented, sectoral and fragmented program implementation models towards a comprehensive, holistic, need-based healthcare system. 3
It encapsulates a progression towards promotive , preventive, curative, palliative and rehabilitative aspects through access of Health and Wellness Centers (HWCs) at the primary level. It provides provision of financial protection for access of curative care at the secondary and tertiary levels through engagement with both public and private sector. 4

Rationale Healthcare in India is largely underpenetrated with government expenditure at around 1.25% of the GDP(Gross Domestic Product). Nearly 55-60 million Indians are pushed into poverty every year to meet medical needs. The hospitalisation expenses for critical ailments had shot up by 300 per cent over a decade. An estimated 6 million families sink into poverty each year due to hospitalisation. 7
Aim Ayushman Bharat aims to undertake path breaking interventions to holistically address health( covering prevention, promotion and ambulatory care), at primary, secondary and tertiary. 8
