She underwent caesarian section and delivered a healthy baby girl on August 17, he added.
Mousami gave birth at Karnal's Kalpana Chawala Government Medical College.
She is the first person to be treated under the Ayushman Bharat scheme in the state and the claim amount was paid to the treating hospital on August 31, the spokesperson said.
