Atal Amrit Abhiyan Society, Assam has released a fresh recruitment notification, and BAMS graduates are on the eligibility list this time. The notice came out on 9 October 2026 and covers 17 contractual posts. Online applications opened on 10 October and close on 25 October 2026.
Out of the four types of posts advertised, one is open to BAMS degree holders: Medical Officer, with 6 vacancies. It pays Rs. 50,000 a month, consolidated. There is a catch, though. The post asks for several years of experience in health claims work, so it won’t suit every fresh graduate. Here is what the notification says, who can realistically apply, and how to do it.
About Atal Amrit Abhiyan Society, Assam
Atal Amrit Abhiyan Society is the agency that runs the state’s health assurance schemes. These schemes give cashless treatment to low-income families in Assam. The society is the body that handles claims, empanelled hospitals, beneficiary registration and grievances for these programmes.
Since the whole system runs on claims, most of its medical posts are about checking whether a treatment was genuine, properly documented and correctly billed. That tells you the kind of person they hire for the Medical Officer role. It is a desk-based role in healthcare administration, not a clinical practice post.
Posts Advertised in This Notification
| Post | Vacancies | Monthly pay (consolidated) |
|---|---|---|
| Medical Officer | 6 | Rs. 50,000 |
| State Anti Fraud Officer (Medical) | 6 | Rs. 1,00,000 |
| Claims Executive | 9 | Rs. 40,000 |
| Operations Executive | 1 | Rs. 40,000 |
All of them are purely contractual. Only the Medical Officer post lists BAMS as an accepted qualification. The State Anti Fraud Officer post, which pays the most, asks for an MBBS degree with registration under the Assam Medical Council or the National Medical Commission. BAMS graduates cannot apply for that one.
Medical Officer Post: Details for BAMS Graduates
Number of posts: 6
Qualification: A medical graduate degree. The notification prefers MBBS but says BDS or BAMS holders may also apply.
Experience: At least 5 to 7 years of work experience in health claims processing or audit.
Pay: Rs. 50,000 per month, consolidated.
Nature of job: Contractual, with no regular government appointment attached.
The qualification line is the good news. The experience line is the one to read carefully. The society is not looking for a newly passed-out graduate or someone who has only done clinical work. It wants a person who has already worked on claims files, hospital audits, or insurance and TPA work.
Who Should Apply
If you are a BAMS graduate with experience at a TPA, an insurance company, a hospital’s insurance desk, or a government health scheme, this post fits you well. The same goes for anyone who has handled claim scrutiny, pre-authorisation or medical audit work.
If you have only practised clinically, or if you finished your internship recently, you may fall short of the stated experience. Applying is still your call, but read the Terms of Reference first. The detailed advertisement spells out how each requirement is counted, and the society will shortlist on that basis.
Also keep your degree papers and registration details ready. A BAMS holder applying for a post like this should have valid state registration documents on hand.
How to Apply
Applications are online only. Here is the process:
- Go to the official website, atalamritabhiyan.assam.gov.in.
- Open the recruitment section and download the detailed advertisement and the Terms of Reference for the Medical Officer post.
- Check your qualification and experience against it, line by line.
- Fill in the online form between 10 October and 25 October 2026.
- Upload your documents: educational certificates, registration proof, experience certificates, resume, ID and address proof, and a recent photograph.
- Submit the form and save a copy of the confirmation for your records.
Don’t wait for the last day. Government portals tend to slow down in the final hours.
Selection Process
Candidates will be shortlisted on the basis of qualification and experience. Those shortlisted will be called for an interview or test, and the date, time and venue will be communicated to them. Past interviews for this society have been held at its office at Six Mile, Guwahati. Check the society’s website regularly after the closing date, since announcements are posted there.
Documents to Keep Ready
- BAMS degree certificate and marksheets
- Registration certificate from the state council
- Experience certificates, with a clear description of claims or audit work
- Updated resume
- Proof of identity and address
- Recent passport-size photograph
A small tip: write your experience certificate details in the same words the advertisement uses. If the post asks for claims processing or audit experience, make sure that phrase is visible in your resume and your supporting papers.
