Overview

India’s National Health Policy (the Policy), 2017, envisages as its goal, the attainment of the highest possible level of health and well-being for all, through a preventive and promotive health care orientation in all developmental policies, and universal access to quality health care services, without anyone having to face financial hardship as a consequence. Accordingly, the State Government realised the need for concerted efforts to improve the health of citizens by providing universal, affordable and quality healthcare services and prepared (March 2018) a Vision document articulating the critical gaps, action to be taken and measurable outcomes.

In order to assess the existing healthcare infrastructure, quality of medical services provided and critical gaps remaining to be filled, the Performance Audit (PA) of ‘Public Health Infrastructure and Management of Health Services in Jharkhand’, covering the period from FY 2016-17 to FY 2021-22, was conducted between March and September 2022.
