@sujakrao Buildng hard #health infra is long, hard & difficult so what d @PMOIndia & @MoHFW_INDIA are doing, building a soft health infra be it #AyushmanBharat or #NationalDigitalHealthMission with @AyushmanNHA as nodal agency

This is reverse engg public #healthcare btw of healthy jugaad

@sujakrao @PMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA @AyushmanNHA Wth 55 crore beneficiaries covered under #AyushmanBharat as more states join & more citizens enroll & it gets more popular

What does it mean more citizens get treated more #hospitals get billed & built as #Govt funds tertiary & secondary #healthcare that involves hospitalisation

@sujakrao @PMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA @AyushmanNHA Now d hard question of planning, delivering & sustaining primary #healthcare comes into play which is d diff part

With soft infra & a budding hospital ecosystem growing beyond urban metros that is serviceable for both consumer in patients & supplier in private health providers

@sujakrao @PMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA @AyushmanNHA Govt can focus on primary #healthcare centers now wth major revenue freed for d purpose which wud hv been else earmarked for secondary/tertiary care

Now d link bt public primary care & private secondary/tertiary model supportd by #AyushmanBharat is #NationalDigitalHealthMission
