With Ayushman Bharat having its key objectives aimed at elevating India's overall healthcare system, a ASSOCHAM-KPMG joint report has highlighted the urgent need to focus on bigger operational aspects such as provisioning of quality and standardized care, driving quality accreditation, emphasizing on learning and capacity development, leveraging analytics and technology and imbibing learnings from across the globe to make the scheme more effective and successful. The joint report titled, 'Ayushman Bharat Programme - A big leap towards Universal Health Coverage in India,' was released today by Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, Ashwini Kumar Choubey at ASSOCHAM's Ayushman Bharat Conclave.
