A Sehat Card balance check tells you whether your family is eligible and how much treatment cover you have left. This guide explains how to check by CNIC, how the treatment limit works, and where to confirm your exact remaining balance.
The Sehat Card gives each eligible family a yearly cover limit, and every treatment is deducted from it. Knowing how to check keeps you from being surprised at the hospital.
How a Sehat Card balance check works
The Sehat Card (Sehat Sahulat) gives eligible families a cover limit for hospital treatment, and each treatment is deducted from that limit. You can check eligibility yourself by CNIC, while the exact remaining balance is confirmed at a panel hospital’s Sehat Card desk, since it depends on treatments already used. You can find official information at sehatsahulat.com.pk.
How to check your Sehat Card by CNIC
You can check eligibility in a few ways:
- SMS your CNIC number (without dashes) to 8500.
- Use the official Sehat Sahulat portal at sehatsahulat.com.pk.
- Call the Sehat Sahulat helpline on 0800-09009.
These confirm whether your family is eligible. For the live remaining balance, ask at the Sehat Card desk of a panel hospital before treatment.
How the treatment limit works
The Sehat Card provides a yearly cover limit per family, usually split across categories such as secondary and priority treatment. Key points:
- Each treatment is deducted from your available limit.
- When a category’s limit is used up, further treatment in it may not be covered until it renews.
- The limit is per family, shared across members.
The exact cover amount and categories can change, so confirm the current details officially.
Where to confirm your remaining balance
The most accurate place to see your remaining balance is the Sehat Card desk at a panel hospital. Staff there can see your family’s used and remaining limit before admitting you, which is why it is best to confirm before a planned treatment. To find a hospital, see our Sehat Card hospital list guide.
Stay safe from fraud
- Use only the official portal sehatsahulat.com.pk, the SMS 8500 check, and the helpline 0800-09009.
- The card is cashless for covered treatment. Never pay an agent to “activate” or “check” it.
- Never share your OTP or personal details with anyone claiming they can increase your limit.
