Holistic healthcare in New India emphasises an integrated and holistic approach to health and wellness, considering not only the physical aspect of health but also mental, emotional and social well-being. The book offers a comprehensive analysis of India's healthcare evolution through the lens of the six core pillars of Swasth Bharat: Medical Infrastructure, Affordable Medicines, Vaccination, Medical Education, Ayush & Yoga and Clean Environment. The book critically examines the genesis, progress and outcomes of the prominent Schemes aimed at revitalising medical infrastructure and ensuring affordable access to medication for all including National Health Mission, Ayushman Bharat, Pradhan Mantri Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission, Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission, and Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana. The Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana has been a significant step towards ensuring affordable and quality medicines for every citizen. The government has addressed the accessibility and quality of medical education through the National Medical Commission Act. The Vaccine Policy in India addresses various challenges, including enhancing the institutional framework, processes, evidence base, and framework necessary for decision- making for enhancing Universal Immunization Programme.
The government of India has shown a significant interest in promoting Ayush (Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy) systems of medicine, as part of its healthcare initiatives to recognise and strengthen the traditional and alternative medicine practices. The final pillar emphasises the crucial role of a clean environment in safeguarding citizens' well-being. The book also recommends an integrated model for holistic healthcare in New India for further strengthening the government initiatives through the Sampoorna Arogyata Model (SAM). The book will appeal to a diverse audience, including policy makers, academics, researchers, practitioners, consultants, non-governmental organisations, and international organisations with interest in health policy and implementation.
