Financial Assistance for Treatment of Chronic Diseases (HBOCWWB) gives registered construction workers of Haryana a one time medical grant of up to ₹1,00,000 to cover indoor treatment costs for serious chronic conditions such as Cancer, TB, and AIDS. The scheme is implemented by the Haryana Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board (HBOCWWB) under the Labour Department of the Government of Haryana, and eligible workers can apply through the Antyodaya-SARAL portal.

Chronic diseases can strike without warning and lead to heavy hospital bills that push families into debt. This scheme offers a strong financial cushion for indoor treatment, so workers can focus on recovery instead of worrying about treatment costs. The benefit is paid only for hospital admission, which means indoor treatment, and it can be claimed only once by an eligible worker.
