Overview

• Nearly 650 Haryana private hospitals stopped cashless Ayushman Bharat treatments on August 7 citing ₹490 crore in pending state reimbursements.
• The Haryana State Health Authority says it received ₹2.5 crore in claims on August 7, cleared payments through early May and is processing the backlog via FIFO.
• Several empanelled hospitals in Haryana declined to join the IMA-led suspension and no formal beneficiary grievances have been recorded on state or central portals.
• Manipur’s Association of Healthcare Providers warns that all eight private PMJAY hospitals will suspend services from August 16 if outstanding dues are not immediately settled.
• Patients dependent on the scheme risk steep out-of-pocket charges and disrupted access to critical care until state agencies clear the arrears.
