When will the atal health system become a true state?
- October 15, 2021
Atal health was the first state-run health care system in India, and was founded by the government to ensure health care for all Indians.
However, as the population grew, the government began to lose money, and atal started taking on the role of a private insurance company.
Atal’s current fiscal year ends on December 31, 2020, and the government is looking to cut the deficit in half by 2019-2020.
But many experts say the government needs to rethink how to fund health care.
