How to get an Ayushman Card if Aadhaar details differ? Here is the complete process.
If there is a discrepancy between the information in Aadhaar records and Ayushman scheme records, eligible beneficiaries can get the details corrected based on valid documents. Once changes are made to the name, age, date of birth, gender, or address, obtaining the card becomes easier.
Nowadays, many people use the Ayushman Card to get relief from the financial burden of sudden medical treatments. If you wish to get an Ayushman Card made but are unable to do so due to a mismatch between your Aadhaar card details and the Ayushman scheme records, there is no need to worry. Eligible beneficiaries of the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) can apply to rectify such data mismatches. In such cases, the process of updating records can be initiated based on correct supporting documents.
Often, discrepancies in details like name, date of birth, gender, or address between the Aadhaar card and the Ayushman scheme's source data cause significant hurdles in issuing the Ayushman Card. Let us understand how to get the Ayushman Card made in such situations.
Which details can be corrected?
In the event of a data mismatch, you can apply to correct specific details in the records:
Father's Name: Spelling errors, age discrepancies, or other mistakes can be rectified.
Date of Birth: Corrections can be made if the date of birth or age is recorded incorrectly.
Gender: Incorrect gender details (Male/Female) can be updated.

How to identify discrepancies between Aadhaar and scheme records?
For example, suppose your Aadhaar card lists your name as 'Suresh Kumar', date of birth as '01/01/1985', and gender as 'Male', while the Ayushman scheme records list your name as 'Suresh kumar' and date of birth as '01/07/1985'. This means the information does not match across the two records. Such discrepancies can lead to data mismatch issues and hinder the process of getting an Ayushman Card.
What steps must be taken to correct the data?
First, contact your nearest CHC (Community Health Centre) or CMO office. Ensure you carry the necessary documents to verify the correct information; these may include an Aadhaar card, ration card, birth certificate, or other relevant government documents.
After verifying your documents, officials will submit an online application to correct the data on the relevant BDP (Beneficiary Database Management Portal). Once the application is submitted, the process to update the records will be initiated. Subsequently, your Ayushman card will be generated, enabling you to avail the benefits of the scheme.
