New Delhi: The central government has provided more than 2.48 crore tele-consultation services through 1.17 lakh Ayushman Bharat health Wellness Centres (AB-HWC) across the country in the last four years.
On the occasion of the fourth anniversary celebration of AB-HWCs, health minister Mansukh Mandaviya released a quarterly report on AB-HWCs and interacted with healthcare workers across the country. “E-Sanjeevani is providing affordable and accessible health care to the people across the country.
Today, some HWCs are also providing screening services for diseases like oral cancer, breast cancer and cervical cancer. AB-HWCs are a stepping stone towards this vision," said Mandaviya quickly adding that healthy citizens can only make a healthy society and healthy society builds a healthy nation.
The union health ministry will organize block-level health melas at more than 1 lakh AB-HWCs from 18–22 April including yoga session on Sunday.
