Apart from this, over 1.4 lakh patients suffering from cancer, heart and kidney ailments among others were also treated for free under the scheme, the CMO stated in a tweet, which did not mention the period in which these patients were treated.
At least 1,22,000 COVID-19 patients received free treatment at various hospitals across the state under the MJPJAY, it was stated.
In a government resolution (GR) issued last month, the medical cover under the scheme was extended to all citizens till July 31.
As per the GR, both COVID-19 and other treatments are covered under the scheme at all empanelled hospitals. MR ARU ARU
