In September 2016, the Supreme Court of India had directed the Centre to finalise and announce the crucial health policy as early as possible( Supreme Court tells centre to take call on national health policy)
On 15th March, 2017, The Union Cabinet approved the National Health Policy, 2017 hence replacing the policy framed 15 years ago in 2002.
The current govt. has modeled the policy to focus on ‘Wellness’ rather than just ‘Sick Care’.
The key features of this policy are:
Total health expenditure by govt. of India under this policy is targeted to be 2.5% of the GDP.Universal access to quality healthcare services in public hospitals, meaning cost of serving patients through medical machinery such as diagnostics, emergency etc would go down such that even poorest of poor can afford.One interesting feature is to Promote research on tribal medicines. (These are those medicines which are mainly practiced by tribal in India and are claimed to be highly effective)Establishing a Public Health Managem
