For most families, the harder problem isn&#8217;t the diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the bill and the eventual cost of cardiac treatment. Cardiac procedures can run into several lakhs, and that number alone stops people from getting care on time.<\/p>\n<p>The Ayushman Bharat PMJAY scheme covers this gap: eligible families receive health insurance coverage of up to \u20b95 lakh per year, and cardiac procedures are included.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re in Patna or anywhere in Bihar, this matters: BIG Apollo Spectra Hospital is officially empanelled under PMJAY for MC-Cardiology. Ayushman cardholders can walk in and receive cashless cardiac treatment, no upfront payment, no scrambling for money. And since early diagnosis in cardiology helps avoid surgery, using the Ayushman scheme for a consultation before symptoms worsen is one of the better decisions you can make.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_the_Ayushman_Bharat_PMJAY_Scheme\"><\/span><strong>What Is the Ayushman Bharat PMJAY Scheme?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, most people call it the Ayushman Bharat Scheme, was launched in September 2018 by the Government of India. It&#8217;s among the largest government-funded health insurance programmes, built to protect low-income families from hospitalisation costs that can otherwise wipe out years of savings.<\/p>\n<p>Eligible households get Ayushman Bharat health insurance coverage of up to \u20b95 lakh per family per year. Treatment coverage at empanelled hospitals is cashless and paperless. There are no premiums; the government funds it entirely, and you pay nothing at admission for covered procedures.<\/p>\n<p>The list of diseases covered under Ayushman Bharat runs into over 1,949 medical packages across 27 specialties. The Ayushman Bharat package list includes several cardiac procedures, from diagnostics to interventional care.<\/p>\n<p>If you hold an Ayushman Bharat health card, you can walk into any empanelled hospital and get treated for the covered procedures, subject to package rules and hospital authorization.<\/p>\n<p>The hospital team at BIG Apollo Spectra handles eligibility checks, paperwork, and pre-authorisation on your behalf; you don&#8217;t need to sort this out alone.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ayushman_Scheme_for_Cardiology_Patients\"><\/span><strong>Ayushman Scheme for Cardiology Patients<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1472 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ayushman-Scheme-for-heart-care.webp\" alt=\"Ayushman Scheme for heart care\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ayushman-Scheme-for-heart-care.webp 900w, https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ayushman-Scheme-for-heart-care-300x167.webp 300w, https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ayushman-Scheme-for-heart-care-768x427.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Certainly, cardiac treatment is part of the Ayushman Bharat PMJAY scheme covering everything from the first consultation to highly complex interventional procedures.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/what-causes-heart-disease-in-india-warning-signs-prevention\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heart disease in India<\/a><\/span> affects individuals of all income groups; however, the lower- and middle-income families are the ones facing a heavier economic burden. The Ayushman scheme aids in making specialist cardiac care accessible to individuals who might otherwise postpone or reject it due to financial reasons.<\/p>\n<p>These are the cardiac care facilities that hospitalized patients will find under the scheme:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Cardiac consultations<\/strong>: Initial evaluation and specialist review by a cardiologist<\/li>\n<li><strong>Diagnostic tests<\/strong>: ECG, echocardiography, treadmill stress tests, and heart-related blood investigations<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coronary angiography<\/strong>: Imaging of the heart&#8217;s blood vessels to identify blockages<\/li>\n<li><strong>Angioplasty and stenting<\/strong>: Procedures to open blocked coronary arteries<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Management of ongoing heart-related conditions: Including hypertension, heart failure, arrhythmias, and valve disorders<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the part that gets overlooked: a condition caught at the consultation or diagnostic stage is almost always cheaper to treat and far less dangerous than one that reaches a critical point.

Patients with Chest Pain<\/strong> &#8211; Unexplained chest tightness or pressure is one of the most common early signs of a cardiac event. Getting evaluated under the scheme for inpatient care can rule out something serious before it gets worse. This is not a symptom to wait out.<br \/>\n<strong>2. Patients with High Blood Pressure<\/strong> &#8211; Sustained high BP raises the risk of coronary artery disease and stroke considerably. Specialist consultations during admitted care and cardiac or stroke-related procedures fall within what the scheme covers.<br \/>\n<strong>3. Patients with Diabetes<\/strong> &#8211; Diabetic patients carry a much higher risk of cardiovascular complications. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bigapollospectra.com\/blog\/treatment-of-coronary-artery-disease-heart-blockage-in-patna\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Treatment of coronary artery disease<\/a><\/span> in diabetic people often requires earlier, more intensive cardiac intervention, and the scheme supports that.<br \/>\n<strong>4. Patients with a Family History of Heart Disease<\/strong> &#8211; Having a parent or sibling who has had a heart attack or bypass surgery means your own risk is above average. Eligible beneficiaries can receive coverage for covered cardiac investigations, hospitalization, and procedures with the use of Ayushman Bharat health card.<br \/>\n<strong>5. Patients Already Experiencing Symptoms<\/strong> &#8211; Breathlessness, fatigue, palpitations, swollen feet &#8211; these can all point to underlying cardiac conditions. If you&#8217;re experiencing any of them, cost should not be the reason you wait to get proper inpatient care under the scheme.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Get_Cashless_Cardiology_Treatment_Under_PMJAY\"><\/span><strong>How to Get Cashless Cardiology Treatment Under PMJAY?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The process is straightforward to access cashless cardiac care by using your Ayushman Scheme details. Five steps, and the BIG Apollo Spectra hospital team guides you through each one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: Check Your Eligibility Go to pmjay.gov.in or call the national helpline at 14555 to see if you or your family is registered as a PMJAY beneficiary. Alternatively, walk into the hospital&#8217;s insurance desk and the team will check on the spot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Visit BIG Apollo Spectra The hospital at Agamkuan, Patna is empanelled under PMJAY for Cardiology care and is authorised to process your claim and admit you cashless under the scheme. No referral needed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Bring Your Aadhaar and Ayushman Card Carry both documents or your beneficiary ID. If you haven&#8217;t received a physical Ayushman card yet, Aadhaar-linked records can often be verified at the Ayushman Mitra help desk at the hospital.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: Cardiac Evaluation The cardiology doctor will assess your condition and decide which tests or procedures are needed. Every recommended care that falls within the Ayushman Bharat package list gets processed under the scheme.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>: Pre-Authorisation and Treatment The hospital files the pre-authorisation request with the PMJAY portal on your behalf.
