The report was released by VK Paul, in the presence of CEO Amitabh Kant, Additional Secretary Dr Rakesh Sarwal, and representatives of hospitals across the country who participated in the study.
NITI Aayog on Tuesday released a comprehensive study on the not-for-profit hospital model in the country, which is a step towards closing the information gap on such institutions and facilitating robust policymaking in this area. "There has been relatively low investment in the expansion of the health sector in the private domain. The stimulus announced yesterday provides us with an opportunity to change this situation. The report on the not-for-profit sector is a small step in that direction," said VK Paul, Member (Health), NITI Aayog. The report was released by Mr Paul, in the presence of CEO Amitabh Kant, Additional Secretary Dr Rakesh Sarwal, and representatives of hospitals across the country who participated in the study. The study provides insights into the operation model of not-for-profit hospitals. It presents research-based findings on such hospitals--categorized under ownership and premise of service--and makes subsequent comparisons with private hospitals and health schemes of the Union government.More Related News
