Apply for your UP Ayushman Card online at ayushmanup.in, visit a Jan Seva Kendra (Common Service Centre/CSC), or get assistance from an Arogya Mitra at a local hospital. The Uttar Pradesh government has launched the UP Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana 2026. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath introduced this Mukhya Mantri Jan Arogya Yojna (MMJAY) to support families in the state who were not included in the national PM Jan Arogya Yojana. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to register for the Ayushman Bharat Yojana in Uttar Pradesh (for those listed in the 2011 SECC data) and the UP Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana (for those not found in the 2011 SECC database).
The online application process for both the UP Ayushman Bharat Yojana and the Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana is now live on the ayushmanup.in portal, through local CSCs, and via Arogya Mitras stationed at hospitals. The UP Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana 2026 operates as a supplementary initiative under the central government’s Ayushman Bharat - Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY). Individuals who were excluded from the primary Ayushman Bharat scheme because their names were missing from the 2011 SECC list are eligible for coverage under this state-run initiative.
Free medical care for underprivileged citizens is available at all public and private hospitals empaneled within Uttar Pradesh. Eligible residents should register for the Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana to obtain their Golden Card, which grants access to cashless treatment worth up to Rs. 5 lakh at any authorized medical facility.
What is the UP Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana 2026?
Following the introduction of the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY), it was identified that many families meeting the Socio-Economic Caste Census 2011 deprivation criteria were left out of the national program. To address this, the Uttar Pradesh government launched the "Mukhyamantri Jan Arogya Yojana" on March 1, 2019, under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Beneficiaries receive the same coverage as the central PMJAY, with the state government fully funding this specific initiative.
