Can you avail Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY and also CGHS benefits simultaneously?
As per government rules, citizens who benefit from any other government health scheme must choose either their existing scheme benefits or those under Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY. This means if you have CGHS, you must choose between CGHS and Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY, as benefits from both schemes cannot be availed simultaneously.
