ABSTRACT

To improve health outcomes and address these challenges, the Indian government has started several initiatives aimed at increasing access to healthcare and ensuring financial safety for its citizens. Health care is a service industry that tries to enhance people's health and wellness. Healthcare entails diagnosing, treating, and preventing illness, injury, and other physical and mental diseases. Healthcare is an essential industry with many jobs and is necessary for the economy. India has progressed considerably in public health through different national healthcare programs to combat communicable and non-communicable diseases, maternal and child health, nutrition, and universal health. The review study offers a detailed analysis of the national healthcare programs functioning in India in 2024, highlighting implementation, impact, and challenges. Major programs are Ayushman Bharat –Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY), National Health Mission (NHM), National AIDS and STD Control Programme (NACP), Revised National Tuberculosis Control Programme (RNTCP), and National Programme for Prevention and Control of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Diseases, and Stroke (NPCDCS). The research assesses the efficacy of such programs in increasing access to healthcare, decreasing the disease burden, and enhancing health outcomes. In addition, it identifies systemic challenges like infrastructure shortages, human resource shortages, and funding limitations that hamper effective program implementation. The review also analyzes technological innovation, policy change, and public-private partnerships that have helped reinforce healthcare delivery. Moreover, suggestions for streamlining resource usage, enhancing community involvement, and deploying digital health solutions are deliberated. The research ends by concluding that while India has made impressive strides in healthcare, ongoing policy adjustments and strategic investments are needed to attain sustainable and inclusive health coverage.
