19 20 Health Health should be viewed as not merely the absence of disease but as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. The determinants of good health are: access to various types of health services and an individual s lifestyle choices, personal, family and social relationships. The latter are outside the scope of this Chapter. The focus in this Chapter is on the strategy to deliver preventive, curative and public health services. Other sectors that impact on good health, such as clean drinking water and sanitation are dealt with in other Chapters of the Plan. AN OVERVIEW At present, India s health care system consists of a mix of public and private sector providers of health services. Networks of health care facilities at the primary, secondary and tertiary level, run mainly by State Governments, provide free or very low cost medical services. There is also an extensive private health care sector, covering the entire spectrum from individual doctors and their clinics, to general hospitals and super speciality hospitals The system suffers from the following weaknesses: 1. Availability of health care services from the public and private sectors taken together is quantitatively inadequate. This is starkly evident from the data on doctors or nurses per lakh of the population. At the start of the Eleventh Plan, the number of doctors per lakh of population was only 45, whereas, the desirable number is 85 per lakh population. Similarly, the number of Nurses and Auxiliary Nurse and Midwifes (ANMs) available was only 75 per lakh population whereas the desirable number is 255. The overall shortage is exacerbated by a wide geographical variation in availability across the country. Rural areas are especially poorly served. 2. Quality of healthcare services varies considerably in both the public and private sector. Many practitioners in the private sector are actually not qualified doctors. Regulatory standards for public and private hospitals are not adequately defined and, in any case, are ineffectively enforced. 3. Affordability of health care is a serious problem for the vast majority of the population, especially in tertiary care. The lack of extensive and adequately funded public health services pushes large numbers of people to incur heavy out of pocket expenditures on services purchased from the private sector. Out of pocket expenditures arise even in public sector hospitals, since lack of medicines means that patients have to buy them. This results in a very high financial burden on families in case of severe illness. A large fraction of the out of pocket expenditure arises from outpatient care and purchase of medicines, which are mostly not covered even by the existing insurance schemes. In any case, the percentage of popu lation covered by health insurance is small. 4. The problems outlined above are likely to worsen in future. Health care costs are expected to rise because, with rising life expectancy, a larger proportion of our population will become vulnerable to chronic Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs), which typically require expensive

20 2 Twelfth Five Year Plan treatment. The public awareness of treatment possibilities is also increasing and which, in turn, increases the demand for medical care. In the years ahead, India will have to cope with health problems reflecting the dual burden of disease, that is, dealing with the rising cost of managing NCDs and injuries while still battling communicable diseases that still remain a major public health challenge, both in terms of mortality and disability (Figures 20.1 and 20.2). 5. The total expenditure on health care in India, taking both public, private and household outof-pocket (OOP) expenditure was about 4.1 per cent of GDP in (National Health Accounts [NHA] 2009), which is broadly comparable to other developing countries, at similar 7% 22% 3% 7% 0.7% 0.9% 1.4% 2% 2% 5% 6% % 0.6% 0.5% Communicable Diseases (37%) Non Communicable Diseases (53%) Injuries (10%) 24% 11% Infectious and parasitic diseases Respiratory infections Perinatal conditions (h) Maternal conditions Nutritional deficiencies Cardiovascular diseases Respiratory diseases Malignant Cancer Digestive diseases Genitourinary diseases Diabetes mellitus Neuropsychiatric conditions Others Congenital anomalies Unintentional injuries Intentional injuries Source: Mortality and Burden of Disease Estimates for WHO Member States in FIGURE 20.1: Disease Burden of India, 2008 (Estimated number of deaths by cause) Dark Maroon: Communicable Diseases (43.94%) Black: Non Communicable Diseases (43.02%) Light Maroon: Injuries (13.04%) Infectious and parasitic diseases Nutritional deficiencies Cardiovascular diseases Digestive diseases Musculoskeletal diseases Oral conditions Other neoplasms Perinatal conditions (h) Maternal conditions Sense organ diseases Malignant neoplasms Genitourinary diseases Skin diseases Unintentional injuries Respiratory infections Neuropsychiatric conditions Respiratory diseases Congenital anomalies Diabetes mellitus Endocrine disorders Intentional injuries Source: Global Burden of Disease Estimates for WHO Member States FIGURE 20.2: Disability Adjusted Life Years in India, 2009 (Estimated percentage of DALY by cause)
