The new health policy will be for ordinary citizens

by Atul Jaiswal Blogger

After waiting for nearly 15 years, India's new national health policy has been introduced in the cabinet. But will this policy be able to provide the necessary healthcare to a large population of the country, the question remains.

Providing essential healthcare to the large population in India and setting up an active framework of treatment, supervision and healthy diet in the field of health is a major challenge. Of course, in this health policy it has been identified that what has to be done, but the question of who and how the question goes two steps forward. That is, there is a lack of a concrete practical plan that can fulfill the basic purpose of the policy.

 

Earlier, the health policies of 1983 and 2002 used to be part of the five-year plan of the then governments. In this policy, it has been reported that in India, the health of the health service provider system is to be corrected. This requires a strong health care industry. But the question is, if this basic service is being developed as an industry, then what will be the place of the poor, disadvantaged sections of the country and the inhabitants of inaccessible areas in this country.

 

Due to lack of budget from the Central Government, its financial crisis of the states and financial mismanagement, the absence of human resources and the deterioration and inaction of the available resources, lack of equipment or lack of supervision, managerial inefficiencies, training and sluggish efforts of development The public health machinery is in a way awry condition. The effect of which is on the overall health of the citizens of the country. Especially the situation of women and children is worrying. Certain emergency services are being operated in the states, but they have no intrusion in public-private partnership and reaching them are not easy for ordinary people. Despite huge expenditure, people go to five-star private hospitals, due to their own compulsions and unbelief in government hospitals.

 

In this regard, the mention of a small country like Cuba will be relevant, which has brought its medical and health facilities to the forefront of the world. Cuba has dealt with health care with public participation, public awareness and civil rights. Today, the doctors and nursing staff in the world are in the shadows, because the reason is that they have not been transformed into a profitable machine even after being successful in the industry. These responsibilities have been ensured here. Which we see lacking in countries like India.

 

The issues related to access to health services of women in the policy document of National Health Policy have been mentioned in a superficial manner. Gender-based violence, emergency services and preparations for disaster, determining spatial methods of treatment, thinking on psychiatric matters, increasing the life expectancy target from 67.5 to 2025, and increasing the state's health budget - public There are also many issues related to health, which are almost untouched in the new health policy. They are discussed but they are inadequate.

 

Figures released by the Registrar General of India, released in December 2016 show that the infant mortality rate (IMR) in the country has decreased to 37 in 2015, 41 in rural areas and 25 in urban areas. But this is inadequate. The Millennium goal was of 27 but failed in that too. What is interesting is that the above figure is just 21 big states. Other small states and Union Territories are not in it. According to World Health Organization data, the health reasons for which people die in India are about 12 percent of those who die from heart diseases. After this there are deaths due to diseases like diarrhea, shortness of breath and tuberculosis. There are many such non-governmental and official figures which, in some cases, show the bright aspect of the picture, there are many cases which make them shine.

 

Some recent voluntary studies show that the primary health centers are built in rural areas but these centers are not guaranteed to protect citizens' healthcare quality. Similarly, the degree doctor is a doctor, but his relation with his knowledge of practical knowledge and everyday practice is also needed to see this. India has not created a huge consumer market of antibiotic consumption. The practice of giving antibiotics to patients is given as an easy and effective remedy for every merge. The second thing is that the results of the study of health among the citizens are scattered, one should create a centralized system where every data related to health and nutrition is available, and then its preparations should be prepared for the forthcoming preparations.

Better health is not a slogan, it is also necessary and rights too.
