With a £15,034.50 Investments in Crore, the initiative will create 5,023 university (MBBS) and 5,000 postgraduate (PG) seats, the government said in its statement.
The centrally sponsored scheme focuses on a strategic and cost -effective approach: strengthening and modernizing the existing medical faculties of the state and central government, independent postgraduate institutes and government hospitals.
According to the statement, this system will help increase the availability of doctors and specialists in the country, thereby improving access to quality health care, especially in insufficiently operated areas.
This will also use the existing infrastructure for cost -effective expansion of tertiary health care. In particular, the expansion of postgraduate chairs ensures permanent offers of experts in critical disciplines.
The Government has stated that this program aims to support the balanced regional distribution of health care resources and in the long -term point of view to strengthen the country’s health systems to suit existing and emerging health needs.
The government has noted that this initiative will provide students with more opportunities to devote themselves to medical education in India while increasing the quality of medical education and training to meet global standards.
The availability of doctors and specialists can also build India as the main destination for the provision of available health care, thus increasing foreign exchange.
