The Yogi Adityanath government has launched a campaign to provide free medical aid to the underprivileged people.
The campaign has been launched to provide Golden Card to poor and underprivileged families.
Through this card, any beneficiary can get free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh in any empanelled hospital across the country.
The Golden Card will be issued to the beneficiaries without Ayushman card of Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (Ayushman Bharat) and Chief Minister Jan Arogya Yojana.
On the first day of the special campaign, the Golden Cards were provided to over 26,000 families of Uttar Pradesh. So far, golden cards were issued to over 6.5 crore beneficiaries in the state under 'Ayushman Yojana'.
This will not only reduce the financial burden of poor and underprivileged families but will also ensure their access to quality health care services.
The 'Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya' and 'Mukhya Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana' are being implemented with the objective of providing health security to the deprived and poor families of the society.
These families will be provided insurance of up to Rs 5 lakh per year and free medical treatment in private and government hospitals under the scheme.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
