Aadhaar not mandatory for â¹5-lakh insurance under Modicare
The Health Ministry has clarified it's not mandatory for beneficiaries to submit Aadhaar details for seeking â¹5-lakh health insurance under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, dubbed as 'Modicare'. The use of Aadhaar is 'preferable' for authentication purposes, it added. This comes after media reports claimed that all applicants will have to submit their Aadhaar details or undergo Aadhaar authentication.
