The data have shown out of the vast population of India only 25 percent of people are insured under the private and government insurance scheme. To overcome this problem Indian government has launched the Ayushman Bharat scheme on 25 December 2018 on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya. The Ayushman Bharat is the Hindi translation of “India blessed with long life”. This scheme is the biggest health care scheme in the world which covers the huge population of India and the covered population under this scheme is more than 100 million. The scheme has categories into the primary, secondary, and tertiary care domain to address the health-related problems of the people and the most important and fascinating feature of the scheme is that a beneficiary avails the facilities in government hospital along with private hospitals. The present study reviews different aspects of the scheme in relevance to the helath sector to provide better perpective towards Indian health care systems.
