Launched to ensure that all citizens, irrespective of their financial status, have access to quality healthcare, the scheme focuses on reducing the burden of medical expenses for the underprivileged. The program is particularly beneficial for people who cannot afford expensive private healthcare services or do not have insurance coverage.

Under MMIY, eligible beneficiaries can avail of free treatment for a variety of medical conditions, including surgeries, hospitalization, diagnostics, and consultations. The scheme covers both government-run hospitals and select private hospitals that are empaneled under the initiative.

The Haryana government has set up a mechanism to ensure the smooth functioning of the scheme, including a simplified application process for the poor and marginalized groups.

This scheme also aims to improve the overall healthcare infrastructure of the state by encouraging better medical facilities and reducing the financial strain on the healthcare system.
