Mysore/Mysuru: With the State Government re-introducing Yeshasvini Health Insurance Scheme, a total of 30 hospitals have enrolled under the scheme in Mysuru district.
There has been an increase in the number of hospitals by four against 26 empanelled earlier in the district, till the scheme was disbanded in the year 2018.
District Health Officer (DHO) Dr. K.H. Prasad told SOM: “According to Karnataka Private Medical Establishments Act (KPMEA), it is mandatory for the hospitals to implement the health schemes of the Government. It should be included as essential service, as the Government provides Civic Amenities (CA) sites, water, power and other basic amenities to private parties (to establishment hospitals).”
Some hospitals are still reluctant as the tariff fixed by the Government towards providing various services under Yeshasvini Scheme are not feasible for them. However, it is made mandatory for any hospitals with 30 beds and above, to enrol under the Scheme, added DHO.
Under Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust, funds to the tune of Rs. 2,000 crore is set aside for the purpose of providing 1,650 various services under Ayushman Bharat Arogya Karnataka (ABAK) Scheme with 1,200 services already provided at Government Hospitals alone. In the case of Government Hospitals, the amount towards treatment will be borne by the Government by 50 percent, while in the case of Private Hospitals, it will be fully borne by the Government.
Citing example of how the Government Hospitals of late, are functioning with improved facilities competing with private sector in the realm, DHO Dr. Prasad said: “Till Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences started functioning in Mysuru, the State Health and Family Welfare Department, annually spent funds to the tune of Rs. 60 crore on reimbursements towards cardiac-related health services provided at Private Hospitals under various schemes in Mysuru district.” Recently, the State Government announced to re-introduce the scheme and had set the deadline of Dec. 31, 2022 for enrolment, which was later extended till Jan. 31, 2023.

ಕೆಲವು ಜನರು ಒಳ್ಳೇ ಕಾಮೆಂಟ್ಸ್ ಬರೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಅದರೆ ಕೆಲವು ಹುಚ್ಚು ನಾಯಿಗಳು ಗುಂಪು ಕಟ್ಟಿಕೊಂಡು ಬೊಗುಳಿ ಕಚ್ಚಿ ಅವರು ಮತ್ತೆ ಕಾಮೆಂಟ್ಸ್ ಬರೆಯದಂತೆ ಮಾಡಿವೆ!
* @Mr.Ajay Thank you .The Key word in today’s social media world is “Focus” We should concentrate on what we do .The rich mindset always thinks there is place for everyone to grow in this world. Always remember even people who troll are good people if we don’t hurt them and ignore their comments they won’t do it again. Avoid watching news on TV as it has become so negative.Also to keep ourselves calm listen to spiritual talk /music 1 hour in the morning after you wakeup and 1 hour before you go to bed , because what content we consume is very important to give us a clear mind with the right mindset.
@Mysore Citizen
You are @Ajay too?
Interesting that @Sanjay Kini has become a psychologist too besides running a tourism business.
As for @Sam, , he is more interested in chasing stray dogs in Mysore!
Well, keep posting, however silly, your comments sound!
