AbstractAyushman Bharat is a health scheme of the Government of India launched on 23 September 2018 to achieve Universal Health Coverage as recommended in the National Health Policy, 2017 which envisages the attainment of the highest possible level of health and well-being for all at all ages. The Scheme has been rolled out in rural and urban areas, based on the deprivation and occupational criteria of the Socio-Economic Caste Census, 2011 (SECC-2011) respectively, for over 10.74 crore families. Aim of the Scheme is reduction in out-of-pocket expenditure of poor and vulnerable population. The Performance Audit on Ayushman Bharat – Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) covering the period September 2018 to March 2021 shows that the PMJAY Scheme, an ambitious and well-intentioned programme to provide healthcare access to most vulnerable sections in the country, has had a strong positive impact on the economically weaker sections of the society who need healthcare facilities. However, the implementation of the Scheme needs improvement in the light of the findings made in the report. It is expected that the compliance to the observations and recommendations made in this Report will help in improving the implementation of the Scheme.
