The Ayushman Bharat Yojana (Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana – PMJAY) continues to expand in 2025, with new beneficiary lists being updated and more people being covered under the government’s flagship health insurance scheme. The scheme now covers millions of families across India, providing cashless treatment up to ₹5 lakh per year per family for serious illnesses in empanelled hospitals.
What’s New in the Ayushman Bharat List 2025
The latest data from official state portals shows that huge numbers of Ayushman Bharat beneficiaries and cards have been issued, especially in states like Uttar Pradesh, where over 5 crore Ayushman cards have been created and thousands of hospitals registered to offer treatment.
Who Gets Covered in the Updated List
The scheme uses the socio-economic caste census (SECC) database to identify eligible families — typically economically vulnerable or low-income groups. Once your family’s name is in the Ayushman Bharat list, you’re eligible for cashless hospitalisation benefits without paying upfront for treatments covered under the scheme.
How to Check the New Ayushman Bharat Beneficiary List
To check if your name is on the updated Ayushman Bharat list in 2025, you can:
- Visit the official Ayushman Bharat website and use the beneficiary search tool.
- Enter your mobile number, Aadhaar number, or Ration Card details.
- The portal will show whether your name is on the list and if your Ayushman card is issued.
Benefits of Being on the New List
Once your name appears in the updated Ayushman Bharat list, you can get cashless treatment up to ₹5 lakh per family per year for secondary and tertiary care at empanelled hospitals. This includes pre- and post-hospitalisation costs, and covers most major treatments.
Tips to Ensure Your Inclusion
- Make sure your Aadhaar and SECC details are accurate.
- Visit the nearest Common Service Centre (CSC) or health department office if there’s any discrepancy.
- Keep your mobile number linked to the Ayushman Bharat portal so you can receive SMS updates on card issuance and list updates.
