The primary health centres (PHCs) which do not have adequate doctors and para-medical staff will be taken up on urgent basis. Under Bhamashaha Health Insurance Scheme poor and needy people will get benefit of the quality cashless health care facilities through private and public health care providers. Needy People will get opportunity of having treatment in those private hospitals which were out of their reach. Under this scheme, e-health cards will be issued under Arogya Rajasthan campaign and this card will help in providing quick and effective healthcare facilities. Initial results of these innovative policies and programmes are motivating and successful. If government works with same will-power these steps will prove to be milestones in public health.
