Explanation:

The state government has taken measures to make healthcare facilities accessible to all by reducing out-of-pocket expenses.

In this context, the chief minister has announced cashless treatment in government hospitals in the state.

The health insurance coverage under Chiranjeevi Swasthya Bima Yojana has also been announced to increase from Rs 5 lakh to Rs 10 lakh for each registered family under the insurance scheme.

It means that from now onwards a patient can get cashless treatment up to Rs 10 lakh not only in government hospitals, but also in empanelled private hospitals.
