How to Crop and Print Your Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY Golden Card

The Ayushman Bharat – Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) is the world’s largest publicly funded health insurance scheme, implemented by the National Health Authority (NHA) under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. The scheme provides a cashless and paperless hospitalization benefit of up to ₹5,00,000 per family per year covering over 1,949 secondary and tertiary medical treatments, surgical packages, day-care procedures, and diagnostic evaluations at more than 27,000 empanelled private and public hospitals nationwide.

When a beneficiary verifies their e-KYC through the NHA Beneficiary Portal or Ayushman App, the issued Golden Card is formatted as a full-page portrait PDF. In emergency hospital admissions, carrying a flimsy A4 paper sheet risks tearing, water damage, or lost barcodes. Our specialized document formatting engine converts your PMJAY PDF into standard ISO/IEC 7810 ID-1 (CR80) PVC dimensions in four simple steps:

1

Upload PDF

Select your Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY Golden Card PDF downloaded from beneficiary.nha.gov.in.

2

The system identifies the Ayushman logo, beneficiary photo, PMJAY ID number, state emblem, and QR code.

PMJAY Golden Card Dimensions & Print Specifications

Proper dimensional precision ensures that hospital barcode and 2D QR scanners can instantaneously verify the beneficiary at the hospital's Ayushman Mitra kiosk:

Specification Property Standard Value Printing & Production Details
Card Width 85.60 mm (3.370 inches) Standard CR80 ID card width, matching driver licences and PAN cards.
Card Height 54.00 mm (2.125 inches) Standard ID-1 height preventing distortion of family beneficiary photo.
Corner Radius 3.18 mm (rounded corners) Matches official plastic wallet cards and hospital swipe cases.
Print Resolution 300 DPI (1011 × 638 pixels) Ensures crisp reproduction of the 14-digit PMJAY AB-PMJAY-ID and QR code.
A4 Layout Margin 0.35 cm (3.5 mm) Top Margin Paper-conserving margin enabling multiple print jobs per glossy sheet.
Cutting Border 2px solid black line Guides rotary cutters and scissors without trimming into vital card data.
Administering Body National Health Authority (NHA) Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India.
Printer Scaling Instruction: In your printer settings dialog (Canon IJ, Epson Easy Photo Print, or HP Smart), select "100%" or "Actual Size". Do not use "Fit to Page" as that causes card shrinking by 3–5%, rendering it smaller than standard wallet card pockets.

CSC VLE & Cyber Cafe Production Guide for PMJAY Cards

In tier-2, tier-3 cities, and rural Gram Panchayats, CSC Village Level Entrepreneurs (VLEs) are the frontline providers of printed PMJAY Golden Cards to beneficiaries. For professional, long-lasting results:

  • 250+ GSM Cast-Coated Glossy Paper + 250 Micron Pouch (Most Popular):
    Print the A4 layout on premium 230–260 GSM high-gloss photo paper using genuine OEM inks. Cut precisely along the 2px perimeter border. Place front and back aligned inside an 85×54mm lamination pouch (250–350 micron). Pass through a heated pouch laminator at 125°C–130°C. This produces a water-resistant, rigid card that withstands emergency handling.
  • Inkjet Dragon Sheet Sandwich (Solid PVC Core):
    Print mirrored front and back onto coated PVC printable film. Sandwich with a 0.46mm opaque white PVC core sheet and fuse using a commercial heat laminator at 135°C–145°C. Cut using a desktop manual CR80 punch cutter. The finished product is indistinguishable from a bank debit card.
  • Thermal Dye-Sublimation Direct-to-Card (DTC) Printers:
    For facilities using Zebra ZC300, Evolis Primacy, Magicard 300, or Fargo DTC series, download the individual Front PNG and Back PNG files. The 1011 × 638 px @ 300 DPI files are pre-formatted for direct ribbon printing without scaling artifacts.

How Citizens Can Download Their Official PMJAY Golden Card

If you or your customer do not have the original PMJAY PDF certificate yet:

  1. Visit the official NHA Beneficiary Portal at beneficiary.nha.gov.in.
  2. Select "Beneficiary" and enter your mobile number, then verify via OTP.
  3. Search by PM-JAY ID, Family ID, Aadhaar Number, or Location (Rural/Urban).
  4. Once your family member's verified status appears with a green "Approved" badge, click "Download Card".
  5. Authenticate using Aadhaar OTP or biometric authentication.
  6. Save the downloaded PDF and upload it into this tool for instant PVC layout formatting.

Troubleshooting Common PMJAY Golden Card Printing Issues

  • BIS 2.0 Portrait vs New BIS 3.0 Layouts: Cards downloaded under the older BIS 2.0 system had a full vertical page layout with extensive disclaimers, while BIS 3.0 beneficiary portal cards have a cleaner card outline. Our crop processor automatically identifies the card bounding box regardless of portal version.
  • ABHA ID vs PMJAY Golden Card: The 14-digit ABHA (Ayushman Bharat Health Account) card is an individual health record ID, while the PMJAY card is a family hospitalization entitlement card. If you need to print an ABHA card, please use our specialized ABHA Card Crop Tool.
  • Printer Scale Setting (100% Scale): To ensure the card fits standard plastic PVC badges or lamination sleeves, always set your printer dialog to "Actual Size" or 100%. "Fit to Printable Page" will reduce the card size by up to 5%.

Frequently Asked Questions About PMJAY Golden Card Printing

Common questions from beneficiaries and CSC operators about PM-JAY card formatting and hospital usage.

What coverage does the PMJAY Golden Card provide?

The PM-JAY Golden Card provides ₹5,00,000 per family per year for secondary and tertiary hospital care. Treatment is completely cashless and paperless across more than 27,000 empanelled government and private healthcare facilities nationwide.

How do I use this card at empanelled hospitals?

Present your printed CR80 PMJAY card at the hospital's dedicated "Ayushman Mitra" help desk. The hospital staff scans the card's QR code or enters the 14-digit PMJAY ID to verify eligibility, approve the cashless pre-authorization, and admit the patient without requiring out-of-pocket payment.

Is my health and personal data uploaded to any server?

No demographic data or health records are ever permanently stored. Documents are transmitted securely via TLS 1.3 to an isolated, non-networked processing sandbox (-dSAFER -dNONETWORKACCESS) for precision rasterization, and temporary files are permanently purged within one hour via automated server cleanup.

Can I print multiple family PMJAY cards on one A4 sheet?

Yes. By utilizing our paper-saving 0.35cm top margin layout, the card occupies only the upper section of the A4 page. Cyber cafe operators can re-feed the sheet or use our Multi-Card tool to print up to 5 family member cards on a single sheet of A4 photo paper.

What is the correct physical card size for PMJAY PVC cards?

The standard size is exactly 85.60 mm in width by 54.00 mm in height (CR80 standard), matching standard credit cards and identity cards.

Is ID Makers affiliated with the National Health Authority (NHA)?

No. ID Makers is an independent document layout utility designed for citizens and CSC kiosks. We do not approve applications or issue PM-JAY cards. All official registrations and downloads must be completed on beneficiary.nha.gov.in.

Disclaimer: ID Makers is a document formatting and layout assistance utility. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the National Health Authority (NHA), the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY, or any State/Central Government health agency.
