The scheme aimed to benefit around 3 crore people across Punjab, covering permanent residents, including government employees and pensioners.
According to the government, MMSY health cards would be issued to all eligible citizens, and treatment would be available free of cost in both government and private hospitals empanelled under the scheme.
CM Mann further added, "'Mukhyamantri Sehat Yojana' will cover around 3 crore population of Punjab.

Free and cashless treatment will be provided in all government and private hospitals through this card."

Earlier, Mann, along with AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, announced the launch of the "Fast Track Punjab Portal".
The portal aims to simplify the process of starting new businesses, setting up projects, and expanding industries in the state.
He stressed the need for a business-friendly environment in which industrialists can focus 90 per cent of their time on business growth rather than running around government offices. (ANI)
