PMJAY Software for Hospitals:
NHCX Cashless Claims & ABDM M1–M3
Run PMJAY and cashless insurance claims from your hospital software: check eligibility, bill HBP packages, send NHCX pre-authorisations and answer queries without retyping data into TMS 2.0.
Certified Interoperability Standards & Security Controls
The Cost of Manual PMJAY Claim Workflows
Many hospitals still enter the same patient and billing data into TMS 2.0, insurer portals, and multiple TPA systems. This creates duplicate work and inconsistent records.
Physical claim files can be misplaced. Missing discharge summaries or diagnostic reports can hold up pre-authorization. Queries and rejections then lock working capital and extend discharge time.
Manual entry
Teams move between systems and retype information.
Delayed approval
Incomplete records lead to follow-up and queries.
Patient impact
Delayed insurance decisions can slow discharge.
How PMJAY and NHCX Work Inside Cliniqwise
Connecting hospitals, payers, and government schemes through standardized digital protocols.
PMJAY Ecosystem
PMJAY, the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, provides eligible families with health insurance coverage of up to ₹5 lakh per year for cashless treatment at empanelled hospitals, subject to scheme rules.
NHCX Digital Highway
NHCX, or the National Health Claims Exchange, is an interoperable digital highway for structured insurance data exchange. Cliniqwise is designed to act as a single-window bridge between your EMR, billing system, NHA workflows, and participating insurance providers.
Unified Single-Window Bridge
Using standard FHIR R4 data bundles, the platform can support eligibility verification, digital insurance pre-authorization, documentation, claims exchange, and claim status tracking. Actual connectivity depends on approved interfaces, hospital readiness, and current program requirements.

From patient check-in to automated reconciliation — experience seamless insurance operations.
Instant Beneficiary Verification & ABHA Linking
Support Scan & Share registration at reception in under 10 seconds, subject to device, network, and verification conditions.
Automated Package and Procedure Rate Mapping

Authorize
Send structured clinical information with less rework.
Track
Give teams a shared view of claim status.
PMJAY Claim Workflow by Department
Each desk adds its part to one claim file, so nothing is retyped and nothing goes missing at discharge.
| Department | What the software does |
|---|---|
| Reception | Scan the ABHA or Aadhaar QR, check PMJAY eligibility and card status, and register the patient under the scheme. |
| Admission & IPD | Allot the bed and choose the HBP package; the package code and approved rate fill in on their own. |
| Doctors & nursing | Diagnosis, procedure notes and the discharge summary are written once in the EMR and reused in the claim. |
| Lab & pharmacy | Reports and medicine bills attach to the claim file straight from the patient record. |
| TPA / insurance desk | Send pre-authorisation and the final claim through NHCX, and answer queries from one screen. |
| Accounts | Track approved, queried and paid claims, and match each payment to its package. |
Why PMJAY Claims Get Rejected, and How Cliniqwise Prevents It
Most rejections come from a handful of avoidable mistakes made long before the claim is sent.
Wrong or missing package code
How Cliniqwise prevents it: The HBP package master fills the code and rate from NHA's current package list, so billers do not type them.
Beneficiary mismatch
How Cliniqwise prevents it: Eligibility and ABHA are checked at registration, before treatment starts.
Incomplete documents
How Cliniqwise prevents it: A required-field check flags a missing discharge summary, report or consent form before the claim goes out.
Late submission
How Cliniqwise prevents it: The claim file is assembled at discharge, so it can be sent the same day.
Queries left unanswered
How Cliniqwise prevents it: Every query shows on the claims dashboard with the documents needed to reply.
Why ABDM M1–M3 Certification Matters for PMJAY Hospitals
ABDM milestone readiness helps hospitals build a stronger digital health foundation. M1 focuses on ABHA creation and patient identity. M2 supports consent-based health record exchange. M3 relates to advanced interoperability and digital claims participation.
Learn more about our certified ABDM compliant software for hospitals and clinics across India.
M1: Identity
Support ABHA creation, registration, and UHID linking.
M2: Exchange
Support consent-led records and digital data exchange.
M3: Interoperability
Prepare structured claims and connected operations.
DHIS Government Incentives
Cliniqwise can help organize workflows that support ABDM participation and potential DHIS incentive documentation. Eligibility, certification status, and incentive rules should be confirmed through current official guidance.
NABH Inspection Readiness
For NABH preparation, structured records, role-based access, timestamps, approval history, and searchable documentation can improve inspection readiness. The platform supports NABH audit ready digital records, but it does not replace hospital policies or accreditation requirements.
Cliniqwise Compared With Legacy HMS Workflows
How integrated digital claims compare against manual portals and paper registers.
| Feature / Workflow | Legacy HMS & Manual Portals | Cliniqwise Integrated Engine |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-auth submission time | Hours of repeated entry | Minutes, built from data already in the record |
| Portal dependency | Logging into several TPA portals | One single HMS screen where supported |
| Data entry errors | High manual rejection risk | Automated validation checks |
| Claim turnaround time | Slowed by missing documents and queries | Complete, validated claim files from the first submission |
| NABH audit trail | Scattered paper registers | One-click tamper-evident digital logs |
ROI and Business Benefits for Hospital Management
Cliniqwise is built for hospitals that need stronger control over insurance operations, not another isolated application. Its value depends on process design, data quality, payer connectivity, and staff adoption.
Financial predictability
Required-field checks and complete claim files cut avoidable rejections, so approved money reaches the hospital sooner.
Staff productivity
The TPA desk stops retyping the same patient and billing data into several portals.
Patient satisfaction
Faster verification and discharge clearance can reduce long waits at the insurance desk.
Role-specific advantages across your leadership team:

One System for PMJAY, State Schemes, ESI, CGHS and Private Patients
Most empanelled hospitals treat scheme, insured and paying patients side by side. Cliniqwise keeps them in one record with the right rates and claim documents for each payer, so the billing desk never switches software.
Because the platform is ABDM certified, the same records can also support your hospital's digital health incentive claims. How the Digital Health Incentive Scheme works.
- PMJAY and state government health schemes
- ESI and CGHS patients
- TPA and private insurance cashless claims
- Private paying patients on the same billing screen
- Scheme MIS reports: package-wise utilisation, claim status and scheme revenue
- Pending-query list for the TPA desk
