What you need

What to do on the official page

  1. Open the official Ayushman beneficiary website: beneficiary.nha.gov.in. It is run by the NHA (National Health Authority) and is free. Do not pay any other site that offers to 'make' or 'check' an Ayushman card.
  2. Choose 'Beneficiary' (not 'Operator'). Type your own mobile number and the picture code (captcha), then click 'Verify'.
  3. An OTP comes by SMS. Type it yourself and click 'Login'. Never tell this OTP to anyone who calls you.
  4. Choose the scheme 'PMJAY' (Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, the Ayushman health cover), your state and district. In 'Search by' choose 'Aadhaar Number', type your own Aadhaar number and click 'Search'. If nothing comes, try 'Ration Card' or 'Family ID'.
  5. The page shows your family list. Each person has a card status and buttons in the 'Action' column (e-KYC or download). Match what you see with the results below.

What the result means

The portal shows: Your name shows the card as 'Approved' (or 'Active') and a download button.

It means: Your Ayushman card is ready. You can get free treatment up to ₹5 lakh a year per family at listed (empanelled) hospitals.

What to do next: Click the download button, type the Aadhaar OTP that comes to your phone, and save the card PDF. At the hospital, ask for the Ayushman help desk (Arogya Mitra) and show the card or your Aadhaar.

The portal shows: Your name is in the list but shows 'Not verified' or 'Eligible', with an e-KYC button.

It means: Your family is eligible, but your card is not made yet because your Aadhaar check (e-KYC, proving with Aadhaar that it is really you) is not done.

What to do next: Click the e-KYC button and choose 'Aadhaar OTP' (the OTP comes to the mobile linked to your Aadhaar). The page also asks for a live photo. Or use face scan in the official Ayushman app, or go to a CSC (Common Service Centre, the local Aapale Sarkar / e-Seva centre) or a listed hospital. It is free.

The portal shows: The card shows 'Pending' (or 'Pending for approval').

It means: Your e-KYC is done and the details are being checked by the scheme office. The card is not ready yet.

What to do next: Wait. Log in again after a few days. If it stays 'Pending' for more than two weeks, call the free helpline 14555.

The portal shows: The card shows 'Rejected', usually with a reason (for example the name or photo does not match Aadhaar).

It means: The scheme office did not accept this e-KYC. You can usually try again with correct details.

What to do next: Read the reason, then do e-KYC again with a clear photo, or go to a CSC or a listed hospital's Ayushman help desk with your Aadhaar and ration card. You can also call 14555.

The portal shows: A message that no record or no beneficiary is found for your number.

It means: Your family is not in the Ayushman list for that search, or the number was typed wrong. The list is made by the government from fixed records (like the 2011 census and state lists); you cannot apply to be added on this page.

What to do next: Check the number and try 'Ration Card' or 'Family ID'. If you are 70 years or older, you can get the Ayushman Vay Vandana card on this same site whatever your income. Otherwise ask a CSC or the district Ayushman office, or call 14555. In Maharashtra, also ask about the state's Mahatma Jyotirao Phule Jan Arogya Yojana.

The portal shows: The login OTP or the Aadhaar OTP does not come.

It means: The phone may have no signal, or the mobile number is not the one linked to your Aadhaar (the Aadhaar OTP only goes to that number).

What to do next: Wait a minute and click resend. To link or change the mobile on Aadhaar, go to an Aadhaar centre (₹75 fee there). Or use face scan in the Ayushman app instead of the Aadhaar OTP.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Ayushman card free?

Yes. Checking, e-KYC and downloading the card are free on the official site and at CSCs and listed hospitals. Treatment under the card is cashless at listed hospitals.

How much cover does the Ayushman card give?

Up to ₹5 lakh a year for the whole family for hospital treatment at listed government and private hospitals. Senior citizens aged 70 or more get their own extra ₹5 lakh cover through the Vay Vandana card.

Can I check my neighbour's or a relative's card?

Check only your own family, with your own Aadhaar and phone. For e-KYC, each family member must agree and use their own Aadhaar OTP or face scan. FormSathi does not look up other people's numbers.

Someone called and asked for my OTP to make my Ayushman card. What should I do?

Do not give it. Government offices and FormSathi never ask for your OTP on a call. Cut the call. If you shared it, call your bank and the cyber crime helpline 1930.

Where do I call if I am stuck?

Call the free Ayushman helpline 14555. You can also ask the Ayushman help desk (Arogya Mitra) at any listed hospital or your nearest CSC.
