Haryana Hospitals Halt Ayushman Bharat Services Over Dues
Imagine a health insurance program called Ayushman Bharat that helps people with hospital bills.
Many hospitals in Haryana have stopped offering these services because the government owes them about Rs 490 crore.
The government says it's trying to pay the hospitals and has already sent some money.
Hospitals claim the amount received is not enough and are worried about their finances.
The government is asking hospitals to resume the services to help the poor.
650+ Haryana private hospitals suspended Ayushman Bharat services.
Suspension due to pending dues, totaling approximately Rs 490 crore.
