Phase-II of Arogya Suraksha will begin on January 1, says CM

: 

 Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy directed the Medical and Health Department officials to launch a massive public awareness campaign about the YSR Aarogyasri so that people would know about using the medical services free of cost at various listed hospitals. 

At a review meeting held at his Camp Office at Tadepalli near here on Monday, the Chief Minister said that officials should create awareness on how to avail the services of ANMs, ASHA workers and CHOs by widely publicising about the ailments and procedures listed under Aarogyasri and on getting free medical treatment. Since Aarogyasri is meant for serving the underprivileged, poor people should not be deprived of its services, he said, adding they should not fall into debt trap for getting medical treatment.  He opined that there should not be a single person who is not aware of Aarogyasri use.
