What are the implications of empanelling public and private Ayush hospitals for insurance coverage
A plan to include public and private Ayush hospitals in insurance coverage has been proposed, what will this mean for healthcare?
- This initiative will widen healthcare options for patients seeking Ayush (Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy) treatment under insurance coverage.
- It will promote integration of traditional medicine with mainstream healthcare, providing holistic treatment options for individuals.
- Patients will have increased access to specialized services provided by private Ayush hospitals, as they can now be covered by insurance.
- Public Ayush hospitals will also benefit by receiving more patients and resources through insurance reimbursements.
- This move can potentially reduce out-of-pocket expenses for patients availing Ayush treatments, making healthcare more affordable and inclusive.
- It may also encourage more people to explore and utilize traditional medicine practices for their healthcare needs.
