Focus on equitable, affordable healthcare to all
A comprehensive health policy, which takes into consideration the State’s current and future health challenges and which sets the course (for the State) to move towards achieving Universal Health Coverage, is expected to be announced on April 7, World Health Day. Announcing this at a discussion on the State’s Health Policy, which is still in the drafting stage, Health Minister V.S. Sivakumar said here on Saturday that the State’s health sector was going through a transition like never before, with the focus now on providing accessible, equitable, and affordable healthcare to all.
