JAIPUR: Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said that the State Government is taking decisions to provide high-quality health services to the people of Rajasthan.
โIt is due to our concerted efforts that the information of Mukhyamantri โChiranjeevi Health Insurance Schemeโ is reaching more and more people and every family of the state is becoming โChiranjeevi Parivarโ,โ CM Gehlot said.
CM Gehlot said that along with health insurance of โน10 lakh for each family covered under Chiranjeevi Yojana, facilities for an organ transplant, bone marrow transplant, ocular implant, blood-platelets-plasma transfusion and limb prosthesis are also being provided.
An important factor is that the limit of โน10 lakh in the scheme is not used for transplants. The entire transplant cost is borne by the state government.
Gehlot said, โSince the inclusion of organ transplant package in the budget announcement this year in Chiranjeevi Health Insurance Scheme, so far (in the last 3 months) 4 bone marrow transplants, 58 organ transplants (including heart, kidney, liver) and 18 cochlear implants have been successfully done free of cost. It is like a new life for all these patients.โ
The Chief Minister said that Rajasthan has become a model in front of the world in the field of health.
