RSBY in West Bengal updates
Unprecedented claim improvement in last 6.5 months. 2.20 lakhs patients for cashless surgical treatment worth Rs 145 Crores from April 2014 to October 25th 2014 through network of 745 hospitals spread throughout the state. After successfully starting RSBY in 120 Govt hospitals in last one year, covering all Medical College Hospitals and Secondary hospitals, it has now been decided to enlist all BPHC and Rural Hospitals in next one year. Some BPHCs enlisted last year are doing quite well like Haldibari earned Rs 6 lakhs in 6 months. This decision will provide easy access to healthcare in all blocks of the state.
Convergence of RSBY with hospital service supports yielded positive results in the State. RSBY now supports Rogi Sahayata Kendra set up in all Hospitals up to Sub division extending patient care help to patients at help desk counters. RSBY contributes substantially to the efforts of the State Government to provide free medical services and abolition of user charges in Primary and Secondary hospitals of the state as notified this week and all set to provide alternative financial support to Rogi Kalyan Samities of Hospitals. Experience of RSBY in Govt. Hospitals in last one year has been very encouraging. Now, implementation of RSBY in block level hospitals will certainly support Rogi Sahayak Kendra help counters.
Affordable and equitable access to healthcare will be a step to move towards Universal Assurance of Health Care to all. Thanks Team RSBY West Bengal for sincere efforts.
