Mukhya Mantri Himachal Health Care Scheme-HIMCARE
Under Ayushman Bharat, families have been selected by the Government of India on the basis of SECC, 2011 and RSBY. For providing the cashless treatment coverage on the analogy of Ayushman Bharat to the left-out families, the State is implementing Mukhya Mantri Himachal Health Care Scheme (HIMCARE) since 1st January, 2019.
Under HIMCARE Scheme, cashless treatment coverage up to Rs. 5.00 lakh per year per family is being provided in the empanelled hospitals. In case of more than five members, the remaining members are being enrolled as a separate unit subject to the capping of five members for each such additional unit.
This scheme is being implemented on co-payment basis. Under this scheme, differential premium rates have been decided based on the categories.

E-card on the analogy of Ayushman Bharat is being issued to the families. The beneficiary can apply through online system directly by visiting www.hpsbys.in or through Lok Mitra Kendra/Common Service Centers for enrollment and uploading relevant documents under the scheme. The LMK/CSC will collect Rs. 50 per family up to unit of five for enrollment/preparation of E-Card under this vibrant scheme. It is the responsibility of concerned beneficiary to apply under relevant category only for which above mentioned documents are required to be uploaded on website. There is no provision for reimbursement of premium if the beneficiary will apply under wrong category for getting subsidized benefit under the scheme. The HP SwasthyaBimaYojna Society will not be responsible for reimbursement of premium if wrong category is selected by the beneficiary.
Hospitals empanelled under Ayushman Bharat within the State are also empanelled for HIMCARE and are providing cashless treatment to the beneficiaries by making online entries through Transaction Management System. The claims are being reimbursed through host-to-host payment system directly in the bank account of concerned hospital after checking the complete claim papers submitted by these institutions through online system. The beneficiaries can also take treatment under the scheme in PGIMER Chandigarh and GMCH Sector 32 Chandigarh.
