– Government Urges Citizens Not to Delay Enrolment; Camps Intensified to Ensure Maximum Coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Rajinder Kumar) Chandigarh, May 2026: <\/strong>The Punjab Government has shared an important update about the Mukh Mantri Sehat Yojana, a healthcare scheme aimed at helping families get affordable medical treatment. So far, it has crossed \u20b9465.36 crore in treatments, with over 42 lakh health cards issued, and 2.77 lakh treatments provided across beneficiaries, showing that many families are trusting and using Sehat card.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Even with this strong progress, the government is asking all eligible people who have not yet registered to do so as soon as possible. They have stressed that medical emergencies can happen anytime, and early registration can help families avoid financial stress during such times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Health and Family Welfare Minister Dr. Balbir Singh said that the scheme is making healthcare easier to access for everyone in Punjab. He mentioned that spending over \u20b9465.36 crore on treatments on around 2.77 lakh pre-authorisation requests received and crossing 42 lakh registrations shows that people believe in the scheme. He also appealed that those who have not enrolled yet should not delay, as the scheme provides financial security when it is needed most.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One of the key features of this scheme is that it is open to everyone. There are no limits based on age, gender, or income. This makes it one of the most inclusive healthcare programs in the country.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To help more people register, the government is organising daily registration camps in villages, towns, and cities. These camps are being set up at convenient places like Gurudwaras, Panchayat Ghars, temples, and community centres. Trained staff are present at these locations to guide people, check documents, and complete registration on the spot. This makes the process easy for everyone.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The government has also cleared some common misunderstandings. The scheme is not only for poor families, it is for all Punjab residents. Registration is simple and help is available at camps. Treatment is cashless in both government and empanelled private hospitals. Under this scheme, each family gets up to \u20b910 lakh per year for medical treatment, including major surgeries and serious illnesses.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The registration process is simple. People can visit any camp or centre without an appointment, carry basic documents like Aadhaar Card and Voter ID, and complete the process with help from staff. Once done, they will receive an SMS confirmation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Punjab Government continues to encourage families in Punjab to register, so that no one has to compromise on healthcare due to lack of money.<\/p>\n
