‘Ayushman Bhav’, the healthcare initiative launched by the President Droupadi Murmu earlier this month; has been implemented in Goa.
As part of the ‘Ayushman Bhav’ campaign, Ayushman Health Melas, CHC Melas and Organ Donation Pledge drives have been held across Goa.
“Goa Government under the aegis of the campaign initiated by Government of India aims to empower our communities with vital health resources and knowledge,” states a post on Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant’s X handle.
‘Ayushman Bhav’ initiative is envisaged to saturate all healthcare services in every village/ town in line with the commitment of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi to ensure reach to the last mile and enable access to health care services to everyone in the society. ‘Ayushman Bhav’ initiative involves a set of interventions that include ‘Ayushman – Apke Dwar 3.0’, ‘Ayushman Sabhas’, ‘Ayushman Melas- at Health and Wellness level and Medical Camps by Medical Colleges at CHCs’, and eventually ensuring Gram/ Nagar Panchayat or Urban Ward to attain the status of ‘Ayushman Panchayat’ or ‘Ayushman Urban Ward’ in a saturation mode.
