Healthcare which is affordable and easily accessible to all is the aim of all programmes that we are bringing in, said Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, on Friday, in Rajya Sabha.
He said that the government has set up 1.22 lakh Ayushman Bharat Health and Wellness Centres, and will achieve the target of 1.5 lakh such centres by the end of this year.
The Minister was responding to a discussion on Right to Health Bill 2021, that aims to ensure equitable access and maintenance of a standard of physical and mental health. RJD MP Prof. Manoj Jha had moved this legislation.
