Lauding the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of achieving Universal Health Coverage by imbibing the notions of Sarvodaya and Antyodaya, the Health Minister stated that India has made significant contributions to health globally as well as in its own nation in the fields of primary and digital healthcare.

The Health Minister launched the ‘The Advantage Health Care India - One Stop Digital Portal For Patient’ and ‘Workforce Mobility’, stating “the launch of these two portals is not just a milestone for India, but a significant step towards fulfilling our global responsibilities. India has always been at the forefront of healthcare innovation.” Dr Mandaviya further added, “Through these portals, we are offering a tangible solution to some of the most, pressing challenges in healthcare today.”

Elaborating on the Indian health system, the Health Minister cited that India today is supported by a workforce of 1.3 Million Allopathic Doctors, 800,000 AYUSH doctors and 3.4 Million Nurses & Auxiliary Nurses and Midwives. Through this highly qualified and skilful workforce, India plans to contribute to an organised system of workforce mobility, wherein India’s healthcare professionals travel to different parts of the world, to serve the global community. Reiterating that health is perceived as a service in India, he highlighted that nation aspires to create a people-centric, value-based system of healthcare.

Dr Mandaviya emphasized that medical value travel will enable greater knowledge-sharing, sustainable partnerships and increased synergies contributing to building a stronger global health architecture. He said “We strive to build a more inclusive and equitable world where healthcare knows no boundaries and where skilled healthcare professionals can make a difference wherever they are. Our collective efforts will be towards creating a healthcare ecosystem that embraces the voice of every nation, every citizen and every being.”

Praising the visionary leadership of Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, Shri Sarbananda Sonowal noted that the theme of India G20 Presidency ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’ incorporates medical value travel and health workforce mobility as an important facet in its pursuit to build resilient global healthcare systems. He further added, “The preventive and promotive approach of our traditional health care systems has played a significant role in modern age today, particularly when global health was afflicted in recent times.”

The Union AYUSH Minister underscored the importance of implementing harmonized and coordinated strategies of traditional medicine through effective governance at international, regional, and national levels. He emphasized that “India being a soft power in the traditional system of medicine can play a pivotal role here in mitigation of these alarming changes in health care scenarios.”

Dr Bharti Pravin Pawar noted “In present times, the concept of health needs a holistic approach and India has the unique advantage of offering Traditional Healthcare Therapies or AYUSH treatments for the purpose of well-being to Medical Value Travellers from across the globe. She emphasized that “integration of traditional medicine and modern medicine is an essential aspect of achieving affordable and accessible healthcare for all, especially in remote areas.”

Prof S P Singh Baghel underlined that “Universal health coverage is not limited within the territorial borders of the country. India holds the vision of One Earth One Heath we intent to provide health services to other country through Heal by India and to those visiting through Heal in India.” The Minister of State further added, “We must create synergies across the stakeholders – hospitals, medical facilitators, insurance companies, healthcare associations and government bodies to facilitate a global healthcare network, with patient well-being at its core.”

Underscoring the importance of Value-Based Health care services supported by the framework of medical value travel, Shri Sudhansh Pant added “We must focus on a patient-centric health system to achieve several of our health priorities. An inclusive health system will be achieved when patients are empowered to choose from a comprehensive range of services, including medical consultation, treatment, post-operative treatment, and follow-up care cutting across geographic limitations.”

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stated that Medical Value Travel can serve to complement countries in building their national capacities. Leveraging Medical Value Travel, countries can offer specialized resources and services that may not be available, affordable or accessible in other parts of the world.

He further added Digital Health is a great asset as it enables patients to access medical healthcare services via telemedicine at platforms such as Ayushman Bharat Health and Wellness Centres. Digital Health bridges the gap of affordability rendering medical care to the innermost areas and to those patients who may not be able to afford the services.
