New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced on Sunday that 187 Ayushman Arogya Mandirs will be inaugurated across the national capital by December, adding to the 168 that are already functional.  

She highlighted the government's commitment to ensuring accessible, affordable, and comprehensive healthcare services.

Under the Ayushman Bharat initiative, Ayushman Arogya Mandirs are being established throughout Delhi to provide residents with primary and essential healthcare services near their homes. The campaign is based on the principle of 'Time to Care' and aligns with the goal of Universal Health Coverage, the Delhi government said in a statement.

The chief minister said the Delhi government will no longer operate its health centres from rented premises, as adequate government-owned spaces are available, news agency PTI reported.

She stated that the Ayushman Arogya Mandirs are equipped with modern facilities and advanced infrastructure. The centres provide OPD services, diagnostic tests, free medicines, maternal and child care, family planning, management of diseases, mental health screening, and emergency medical assistance.

Gupta further noted that the Indian Public Health Standards have been implemented to ensure uniform infrastructure, staff, medicines, and diagnostics. The aim is not merely to deliver healthcare but also to build public confidence and promote a culture of wellness and trust, she added.   

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced the inauguration of five hospitals and 150 Ayushman Arogya Mandirs as part of the launch of 75 new schemes during a Seva Pakhwada planned by the Delhi government. The initiative will begin on September 17 - the birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and will continue until October 2. These activities will include the inauguration of various development projects, foundation stone-laying ceremonies, and the commencement of long-pending works.
