Increased participation of private hospitals
Let us tell you that the National Health Authority (NHA) decides the rates of Ayushman Bharat scheme. The NHA may soon change the rates of treatment, which will also increase the participation of the private sector. The standardization of hospital rates will be done in such a way that the hospital does not earn much profit, because the volume in this scheme of Jan Arogya is very large. Apart from this, the government is also preparing a model to speed up the process of claim settlement so that the hospital payment can be made immediately. Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, 2 crore people have been treated.

PM Ayushman Bharat Scheme: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ambitious plan Ayushman Bharat Scheme is preparing for major changes to increase the participation of private sector. According to our partner channel Zee Business, the rates of different treatment are fixed in the Ayushman Bharat health scheme and due to no change in the rates, private sector hospitals do not participate in this scheme. Due to this, the government is going to change the rates of treatment. Under the Ayushman Bharat Yojana (Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana), each family is given a free health insurance cover of Rs 5 lakh annually.
Increased participation of private hospitals
Let us tell you that the National Health Authority (NHA) decides the rates of Ayushman Bharat scheme. The NHA may soon change the rates of treatment, which will also increase the participation of the private sector. The standardization of hospital rates will be done in such a way that the hospital does not earn much profit, because the volume in this scheme of Jan Arogya is very large. Apart from this, the government is also preparing a model to speed up the process of claim settlement so that the hospital payment can be made immediately. Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, 2 crore people have been treated.
Treatment rates will be reasonable
An official associated with the National Health Authority told Zee Business that private hospitals do not want to join the Ayushman Bharat scheme because the rates of treatment are not affordable. Whereas, on the other hand, some treatments for government hospitals are more than the fixed rates, but in government hospitals, the rest of the treatment is free, so the government hospital does not have much problem. At present, the share of private sector in 23,000 hospitals associated with Ayushman Bharat scheme is close to 40%.
Huge difference in the rates of government-private hospitals
There is a huge difference between the rates of government hospitals and private hospitals. The National Health Authority is considering standardization in treatment rates. This step of the government is expected to increase the participation of private sector in Ayushman Bharat. At the same time, increasing the participation of the private sector will benefit the common people. Patients will be able to get free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh in maximum private hospitals.
