Abstract: Development cannot be achieved in the absence of a healthy population. Healthy people are not just assets to their families ensuring happiness but also act as a critical pivot driving productivity and economic development. No wonder, it is accepted as the most critical development index internationally. Well-conceived policies for the health sector and robust implementation of such policies lies at the heart of nation building. The present Government under Shri Narendra Modi has set in motion several path breaking health sector policies like Ayushman Bharat since coming to power in 2014. Lack of an insurance cover constitutes the most critical gap in healthcare in a country like India with a large population below the poverty line. A large part of the family income of a poor household often gets consumed while treating a family member for any critical illness, thereby dragging the family further down economic ladder. DARIDRANARAYAN Sewa was the guiding principle, when our Prime Minister Modi announced Ayushman Bharat on 23 rd sept 2018. It is the largest health insurance scheme in the world, which provides a cover of Rs 5 lakh per family per year for hospitalization to around 10.74 crore poor and vulnerable families{approx. 50 crores}. This centrally sponsored programme, while reaching out to crores of beneficiaries successfully, however continues to encounter many implementation challenges. My paper highlights not just the phenomenal impact this policy has left on the marginalized class, the bottom level of the population but also elaborates on some of the implementation challenges. Private hospitals are not willing to associate due to official formalities, rigid regulations and very low rates for medical procedures like surgery. Some of the states like Delhi, Odisha, west Bengal and Telangana have even refused to introduce this policy for obvious political reasons. With only 1.4% of GDP being spent on health services, there is a glaring lack of political will to usher in any significant change in the system. India needs serious reconstruction of its health system- infrastructure, public awareness. Some of the recent policy initiatives like Ayushman Bharat clearly points to a change in approach to the issue. But it may be just the beginning of a long journey.
