Under the 'Mukh Mantri Sehat Bima Yojana', Punjab has spent over ₹84 crore on orthopedic treatments like knee and hip replacements in just four months. The scheme provides cashless surgical services in government hospitals, benefiting over 45 lakh registered citizens. Health Minister Balbir Singh emphasized that this initiative aims to reduce the financial burden on families and improve mobility for the elderly and trauma patients. For instance, a worker in Patiala received a ₹86,750 ligament surgery for free under this scheme. https://hindikhabar.com/punjab-orthopedic-treatment-demand-increase-mukhyamantri-swasthya-yojana-84-crore-spent/ #creator program
