Health Talk: What implementing Ayushman Bharat scheme means for Delhi
Hindustan TimesNew Delhi: Among the first Cabinet approvals on Thursday under Delhi’s newly elected chief minister, Rekha Gupta, is the implementation of the Narendra Modi government’s flagship Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana. A day after the Delhi government made the announced, Union minister for health and family welfare, JP Nadda, posted on the microblogging site X, “…The AAP government, due to its narrow and selfish politics, maliciously deprived the people of Delhi of this public welfare scheme for 10 years, due to which lakhs of citizens of Delhi were deprived of good treatment in difficult circumstances.” What does it mean for Delhi to have joined this scheme? While Delhi fares better in terms of hospital distribution—with at least 20 government hospitals —finding a bed remains a herculean task, with surgery dates sometimes being scheduled years in advance at some hospitals. As seen in other government-run schemes operating in private hospitals, such as the Central Government Health Scheme, where the government needs to reimburse private players, a significant backlog exists, and it often takes years for the government to clear dues.
