GUIDELINES
1.
INTRODUCTION
The workers in the unorganized sector constitute about 94% of the total work force
in the country. One of the major insecurities for workers in the unorganized sector is
absence of health cover for such workers and their family members. Insecurity relating to
absence of health cover, heavy expenditure on medical care and hospitalization and
recourse to inadequate and incompetent treatment is not only a social and psychological
burden borne by these workers but there are significant economic costs resulting from loss
of earning and progressive deterioration of health. Thus, with a view to providing health
insurance cover to Below Poverty Line (BPL) workers in the unorganised sector and their
families, the Central Government has announced the “Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana”.
2.
HOUSEHOLD ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
2.1
Coverage under the scheme would be provided for BPL workers and their families
[up to a unit of five). A family would thus comprise the Household Head, spouse, and up to
three dependents. The dependents would include such children and/or parents of the head
of the family as are listed as part of the family in the BPL data base. If the parents are listed
as a separate family in the data base, they shall be eligible for a separate card. The definition
of BPL would be the one prescribed by the Planning Commission for the purposes of
determining the eligible BPL population in each State/district. It would be the responsibility
of the respective State Government to verify the eligibility of specific BPL workers and their
family members who would be the beneficiaries of the scheme, and to share such
information with the insurance provider. To this end, an authenticated BPL list [or lists
where the covered area includes urban and rural areas] providing the details of each BPL
family will be prepared by the State Government/Nodal agency. The data would be provided
in the prescribed electronic format to the insurer. The State Governments may, if required,
seek the assistance of an outside agency for the task of data entry. However, the
responsibility for providing the correct data shall be that of the State Government and it
would be expected of the State Government that it shall put in place a foolproof system of
supervision and authentication of the data.
2.2
Proof of the eligibility of BPL households for the purposes of the scheme will be
provided by issuance of smart cards to all beneficiary households.
3.
ENROLMENT OF BENEFICIARIES

selected by the State Government and approved by the Government. The Insurer shall

Vender and handover the same to the beneficiaries at enrolment station/village level itself
during the enrolment period. Further the enrolment process shall continue at designated
centers agreed by the Government /Nodal Agency after the enrolment period is over to
provide the smart card for remaining beneficiaries. Insurer in consultation with the State
Government/ Nodal Agency shall chalk out the enrolment cycle up to village level in a
manner that representative of Insurer, Government/Nodal Agency and smart card vender
