## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND FAMILY WELFARE (DR. BHARATI PRAVIN PAWAR)

- (a) to (f): State/UT-wise details of Ayushman cards are at Annexure-I.

As of 31 st January 2022, approximately 2.81 crore hospital admissions worth Rs. 31,918 crore are authorized under the scheme. State/UT-wise details thereof are at Annexure-II.

In Rajasthan, Ayushman Bharat -Pradhan Mantri Jan ArogyaYojana (AB-PMJAY) is implemented in convergence with the States' health insurance scheme. To avail benefits under the converged scheme, eligible beneficiary families can use their existing Jan Aadhaar cards.  As of 31 st January 2022, Jan Aadhaar cards are issued to approximately 1.34 crore families. The districtwise number of families provided with Jan Aadhaar cards are at Annexure - III.

Integration  of  National  Health  Authority  (NHA)'s  IT  platform  with  State's  IT  system  enables portability feature of the scheme.
