The government will soon come up with a cashless treatment facility for all road accident victims at the Ayushman Bharat hospitals while work is on to rectify about 5,000 remaining black spots in the country by May 2025 as the aim is to reduce road accident related death and injuries by half by 2030, road secretary Anurag Jain said.
“We plan to introduce cashless medical treatment for all injured road accident victims across the nation within the next three to four months,” Jain said while addressing the International Road Federation (IRF) conference on ‘Vision Zero, Targeting road safety by 5E’s with innovative technologies’, organised in association with the ministry of road transport and highways and Maruti Suzuki.
