Assessment of the Implementation of Ayushmaan Bharat Health and Wellness Centres (AB-HWC) in India

The Government of India aims to set up 1.5 lakh Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs) by 2022 based on the Comprehensive Primary Health Care (CPHC) paradigm. An expanded range of services which include care for non-communicable diseases, ENT care, mental care and palliative, first-level care for emergencies and trauma along with free essential medicines and diagnostic facilities are expected to deliver in these centres.

Aiming at Comprehensive Primary Health Care (CPHC), more than 50,000 Ayushman Bharat-Health and Wellness Centres are now operational across the nation. Thus, National Health Systems Resource Centre (NHSRC) awarded a research study on the assessment of Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs) set up under Ayushman Bharat.

The research study awarded by NHSRC has aimed at an assessment of the ground-level implementation processes involved in the roll-out of HWCs in eight states of India viz. Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Manipur. The study examines the alignment of the performance of HWCs with the expectations of key stakeholders such as the community.
