NDTV
It is to be noted that the capital currently has 519 Mohalla Clinics that offer free primary health care services to patients, including 212 different types of tests.
The Kejriwal government will soon open 100 more Mohalla clinics across the city to provide primary healthcare services to residents. Preparations for these upcoming clinics are underway and will be completed soon.
On Monday, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, who holds additional charge of Health Ministry, met with officials from the Public Works Department and the Health Department to review the project.
In a statement, Mr Sisodia said, ''The Kejriwal government's Aam Aadmi Mohalla Clinics are known around the world, and people have been visiting Delhi to learn about this public healthcare model. The Delhi Government's goal is to provide primary healthcare to every resident of Delhi, and expanding the number of Mohalla Clinics is a landmark step in the direction.''
''Simultaneously, work on digitising all Mohalla Clinics in Delhi is progressing quickly. Many Mohalla Clinics have been fully digitised, with information about patients and their medical histories collected using tablets available at clinics. Doctors will be able to learn about their patients' medical histories with a single click. This will assist doctors in better diagnosing and treating patients,'' he added.
