Making a claim under Mukhyamantri Amrutum Yojana is a completely cashless process. Once the emergency has been identified, the patient is required to submit their QR coded card (Quick Response Coded Card) to the network hospital for approval. Post approval, the hospital will go ahead with the treatment.
The Mukhyamantri Amrutum Yojana is one of the best healthcare initiatives undertaken by the Government of Gujarat. Its success can be defined by the following awards and achievements:

For people who are living below the poverty line, access to adequate healthcare is difficult. A medical emergency adds more burden to their minimum income. To counter this, Mukhyamantri Amrutum Yojana was introduced. Since its implementation, it has been one of the most successful healthcare initiatives. Due to the benefits offered and popularity, this plan has been extended to include families of lower middleclass income as well.
