The Yeshasvini Co-operative Farmers Health Care Scheme, which was first launched in June 2003 by the State Government which was first of its kind health scheme in the country on a public-private partnership (PPP) model specifically targeting the members of co-operative societies in rural areas through Department of Co-operation. This groundbreaking initiative aimed at providing accessible and affordable healthcare facilities to Co-operative farmers and the rural poor who often had to depend on moneylenders or sacrifice their assets to cover the expenses of major illnesses and surgeries. The scheme was extended to urban Co-operatives from 2014-15.

Under the scheme 823 surgeries in the 14 medical specialties were identified. Members were given cashless treatments in Yeshasvini network hospitals across the State. This significantly eased the financial burden on individuals and families during times of medical emergencies and surgical interventions.

The Yeshasvini Scheme was successfully implemented from 2003-04 to 2016-17 through the Department of Co-operation. From 1st June 2018, the scheme was transferred to Health and Family Welfare department, Government of Karnataka and finally it was stopped.
