CG NEWS: Ayushman Card turns a lifesaver for Advaita

Raipur CG: The Ayushman Card became a lifesaver for a minor girl from an economically weaker section of the society on Wednesday.

Digendra Kumar's daughter Advaita was born on 10 May 2023. Digendra Kumar is a resident of village Chhipli of Nagari Vikas block of Dhamtari district. At the time of birth, baby Advaita weighed only 1,300 grams and doctors advised to admit her to a special children’s hospital. Doctors informed Digendra that the estimated cost of treatment and medicines can go up to Rs 5 lakh.

But due to his weak financial condition, it was not possible for Digendra to incur such heavy medical expenses. He was worried about arranging such a huge sum of money, when an acquaintance reminded him about the Ayushman Card Scheme of the Central Government. Using the Ayushman Card, he got his daughter Advaita admitted to a private children's hospital, where her treatment went on for about one and a half months. Now Advaita is home all happy and healthy, much to the relief of her parents. Digendra says the scheme, Ayushman Yojana, had saved his daughter's life.
