Honoured to attend the workshop on “Building Viksit Bharat
@2047: Advancing Health and Education Reforms” organised by the Nation First Policy Research and Change Foundation (NFPRC) at India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, under the Chairmanship of Shri Tarun Chugh Ji (
@tarunchughbjp)
The workshop reflected the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji (
@narendramodi ) and his commitment towards building a healthy, educated, empowered, and developed India through transformative reforms and people-centric governance.
The discussions on Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY), National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020), healthcare accessibility, and integrated human development were highly meaningful and insightful.
During the interaction, I suggested several important measures to further strengthen the implementation and impact of Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY:
• Increasing the insurance coverage limit from ₹5 lakh to ₹10 lakh considering rising medical and hospitalization expenses.
• Expanding the scheme to include lower and middle-class families who are currently outside the eligibility criteria.
• Including OPD services, primary consultations, diagnostic tests, outpatient treatment, and costly prescription medicines under the scheme to reduce out-of-pocket expenditure for economically weaker sections.
• Revising hospital reimbursement package rates periodically to encourage greater participation of private hospitals and ensure quality healthcare services.
• Strengthening rural healthcare infrastructure by increasing the number of empanelled hospitals in backward regions and expanding telemedicine services in remote villages.
Such constructive discussions and policy reforms will play a vital role in realizing the vision of “Viksit Bharat
@2047” under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.
