The AP YSR Aarogyasri Scheme 2026 has been implemented statewide by Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. The Andhra Pradesh YSR Arogyasri initiative is designed to provide high-quality medical services to underprivileged citizens. Formerly known as the NTR Vaidya Seva Yojana, the program was rebranded as the Dr. YSR Aarogyasri Scheme 2026. This initiative offers universal health coverage to families in lower and middle-income brackets, and its official portal is ysraarogyasri.ap.gov.in. Furthermore, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the state government has included coronavirus treatment under this healthcare coverage.
