Ayushman Bharat Yojana

In September 2018, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana - Ayushman Bharat. It has been termed as the biggest government-sponsored healthcare scheme in the world. Ayushman Bharat Scheme was launched with the aim to achieve a vision of Universal Health Coverage. As per the official website of the scheme, this initiative has been designed to meet Sustainable Development Goals. It also gives the commitment that no one will be left behind in this development.

The official site also talks about how Ayushman Bharat will take efforts to move from the sectoral and segmented approach of health service delivery.
