How can I check if my name is in Ayushman Bharat list?

You can check your name online at beneficiary.nha.gov.in or mera.pmjay.gov.in. Enter your mobile number, verify with OTP, then search using your Ration Card number, name, or SECC ID. Alternatively, call the Ayushman Bharat helpline at 14555 or visit your nearest CSC center.

What is SECC 2011 and why is it important for Ayushman Card?

SECC 2011 (Socio-Economic Caste Census 2011) is the database used to determine Ayushman Bharat PMJAY eligibility. The government selected beneficiaries based on this census data. If your family was listed in SECC 2011 under specific deprivation criteria (rural) or occupational categories (urban), you are eligible for Ayushman Card.

My name is in the list but my details are wrong. What should I do?

If your name is in the beneficiary list but details like name spelling, DOB, or gender are incorrect, you can get them corrected. Visit your nearest CSC center or empanelled hospital with your Aadhaar Card and supporting documents. You can also file a correction request through the NHA grievance portal.

Can I check Ayushman Card list by Aadhaar number?

You cannot directly search the beneficiary list using Aadhaar number on the public portal. However, you can search using your mobile number, Ration Card number, or name + location. Aadhaar is used for eKYC verification after you confirm your eligibility.

I checked but my name is not in the list. What can I do?

If your name is not in the SECC 2011 beneficiary list, you are currently not eligible for Ayushman Card under PMJAY. However, you can: (1) Try searching with different family member names, (2) Check state-specific health schemes that may have broader coverage, (3) File a grievance at grievance.pmjay.gov.in if you believe you should be eligible, (4) Call 14555 for assistance.

Is the Ayushman Bharat list updated every year?

The core PMJAY beneficiary list is based on SECC 2011 data and has not been updated with a new census. However, the government periodically adds new categories - for example, in 2024, all citizens above 70 years were added regardless of SECC status. State governments may also expand the list with additional beneficiaries.

Can I check my family members' names in the Ayushman list?

Yes, when you search using your Ration Card number or family head's name, the system shows all eligible family members listed under your household in the SECC 2011 database. Each family member can individually generate their own Ayushman Card.
