NEW DELHI: Government think-tank NITI Aayog will pick three states out of the 16 that made a presentation to the Aayog for development support to transform their health sector.
NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant chaired the meeting convened to help states give their health sector a makeover over the next 3 years.
"Today, 16 states make presentation to NITI for development support to transform their health sector! 3 states to be selected #CompetitiveFederalism," the Aayog said in a tweet.
NITI Ayog Sath Program
Furthering the agenda for cooperative federalism, NITI Aayog has launched SATH, a program providing ‘Sustainable Action for Transforming Human capital’ with the State Governments. The vision of the program is to initiate transformation in the education and health sectors. The program addresses the need expressed by many states for technical support from NITI .
SATH aims to identify and build three future ‘role model’ states for health systems. NITI will work in close collaboration with their state machinery to design a robust roadmap of intervention, develop a program governance structure, set up monitoring and tracking mechanisms, hand-hold state institutions through the execution stage and provide support on a range of institutional measures to achieve the end objectives. The program will be implemented by NITI along with McKinsey & Company and IPE Global consortium, who were selected through a competitive bidding process.
