New Delhi: Road accidents me injured hone wale logon ke liye ek badi relief announce hui hai. Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari ne Rajya Sabha me bataya ki road accident victims ko ab pehle 7 din tak ₹1.5 lakh ka cashless medical treatment diya jayega. Is scheme ka main aim hai emergency treatment me paise ki wajah se hone wali delay ko khatam karna.
Gadkari ne House ko inform kiya ki ye scheme pehle kuch areas me pilot basis par chal rahi thi, jahan se positive feedback mila. Ab ise poore desh me implement kiya ja raha hai, taaki har accident victim ko timely medical help mil sake, chahe uski financial condition kuch bhi ho.
Government ke mutabik, kisi bhi motor vehicle accident ke baad injured vyakti empanelled hospitals me bina advance payment ke treatment le sakta hai. Ek accident me ek vyakti ko maximum ₹1.5 lakh tak ka cashless treatment milega, aur ye facility accident ke din se 7 din tak valid rahegi. Non-empanelled hospitals sirf initial stabilisation ke baad patient ko listed hospital me refer karenge.
Is scheme ke smooth execution ke liye National Health Authority, state health departments, police aur hospitals ke beech coordination ki zimmedari di gayi hai. Ek high-level steering committee bhi banayi gayi hai jo implementation issues aur claims settlement par nazar rakhegi.
Emergency response system ko aur strong banane ke liye Gadkari ne bataya ki government specialised ambulances par bhi kaam kar rahi hai. Target ye hai ki major accident-prone areas me ambulance response time 10 minute ke aas-paas ho, jisse golden hour me life-saving treatment mil sake.
Minister ne Rah-Veer (Good Samaritan) Scheme ka bhi zikr kiya, jisme accident victims ko hospital pahunchane wale logon ko samman aur ₹25,000 ka reward diya jata hai. Iska goal public ko bina dar ke madad ke liye encourage karna hai.
Health aur road safety experts ka kehna hai ki cashless treatment ka ye model road accident deaths aur permanent injuries ko kaafi had tak kam kar sakta hai. Halaanki, iska real impact hospital empanelment aur public awareness par depend karega. Government ka focus ab is scheme ko ground level par effectively implement karne par hai.
