BLS International, a tech-enabled services partner for governments and citizens, has entered into a partnership with UTI Infrastructure Technology and Services Limited (UTIITSL) for supporting e-card printing services under the Indian government’s Ayushman Bharat by National Health Authority, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

UTIITSL is a government company appointed by National Health Authority for issuing e-cards to beneficiaries under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme. The scheme covers nearly 50 crore poor, deprived rural families, and identified occupational categories of urban workers’ families.

The partnership with UTIITSL has enabled BLS International to become an official PMJAY service agent.

With immediate effect, BLS International will begin online verification, registration, and validation process for beneficiary and e-card printing services across the country for availing healthcare services at any of the empanelled hospitals in their respective areas.

Shikhar Aggarwal — Joint Managing Director of BLS International said: “We are excited to assist UTIITSL to play an integral role in this initiative. Our deep penetration in semi-rural and rural areas will help us to serve the unserved and underserved population across India.

“Our reach across India with tech-enabled expertise will help us in a seamless rollout of verification and printing of the e-cards.”

Last month, BLS International entered into a partnership with Flipkart to provide last mile delivery services across India.
