New Website for RSBY

RSBY relaunched its website with a new face last week sometime. The address of the website is www.rsby.in The new website is more user friendly and easy to navigate. The main highlight of this website are as follows:
  • Latest information and data about RSBY is available through this website
  • Viewers can see on the front page itself the no. of smart cards which have been issued till now.
  • In the scheme status page, RSBY enrollment and empanelment data is available at National, State and District level
  • The contact of State Nodal Agency and the Insurer for each State has also been provided on the website
  • Another new addition to the website is the new logo of RSBY which highlights the aspect of protection to a five member family
  • A separate media page is available now but at present there are very few media reports available on the page.
Overall this web site is quite an improvement over the earlier one. However few more things can be added in due course of time like data on utilisation of services by beneficiaries.

  3. can hospitals give there rsby covered patients cash back after treating them ?
    if they can this scheme will be a total failure and will cause great loot of taxpayers money.
    patients or card holders would get themselves treated for no disease but for money, and this health card would start functioning as a ATM card for them

  4. certain public sector hospitals are operating at a much cheaper rates then what is offered by rsby.
    Now a private hospital empanelled with rsby can take the benefit of card and carry the patient to a cheaper public hospital get them treated and again bring them back to their private nursing home.
    This is happening at a large scale and some private hospitals have to take wards on rent to accomodate patients/card holders.
    can anyone explain such a inflation of patients just after issuance of cards

  5. In both the cases mentioned above, one has to understanding the basics of RSBY which are different from any other health insurance scheme. Ther is no cash back in RSBY. Hence, there is no likelihood of "loot". Don't worry, RSBY is gradually being recognized as a safe scheme where tax payers money is used judiciously.
    In the second case, I admire the imagination of the author. The primary issue is of treating the patient. The beneficiary also has a choice to choose the hospital. Hence, if he is not satisfied with the services of one hospital, he can go to another one. Ther could still be mal-practices as suggested. However, the real check will come from the Insurance Companies who have to pay to the hospital. In view of their business interest, they are keeping a close watch on what is happening in a hospital
