Using the card at private hospitals

Empanelled private hospitals in Srinagar, Jammu and other districts accept the Golden Card for covered procedures. Always confirm before admission: (1) the hospital is currently empanelled, and (2) your treatment is covered. The hospital's Ayushman Mitra desk can check this instantly.

Need a doctor consultation first?

The SEHAT card covers hospital procedures — but for everyday OPD consultations you choose your own doctor. SehatJK helps you find verified private doctors across all 20 districts of J&K, compare fees and connect on WhatsApp.
