Merge[edit]

I propose to merge Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana into this article since the scheme has been subsumed. Capankajsmilyo^{(Talk | Infobox assistance)} 04:01, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No merge @Capankajsmilyo: The RSBY scheme operated from about 2008-2018 and guided the healthcare of about 150 million people. It does seem to be ending, and this plan does seem to replace it, but there is enough domestic and international media coverage for each of the plans to have their own article by WP:N. Blue Rasberry (talk) 20:14, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A merger will not make either easier to understand.Rathfelder (talk) 19:04, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Donot merge or else people will have no idea aboout the project which was itself a govt porject and has been running since 2008 as well as benefited a lot of people.So merger will lead to confusion.

Oppose for above mentioned reasons. Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk) 06:41, 1 February 2019 (UTC) . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 223.233.47.141 (talk) 09:13, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose because RSBY and Ayushman Bharat differ in scope and genesis. B.soura (talk) 05:11, 29 March 2019 (UTC) Both the programmes (Schemes) are somewhat similar but have different way of Operations. It is always good to keep the RSBY page as it is as it can give information to the people of the programmes that were run by the government. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.123.6.29 (talk) 08:00, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update on States[edit]

Some more states have dropped out of this scheme, like West Bengal and Kerala, which is not updated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.232.1.166 (talk) 09:31, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

National Health Policy[edit]

I made one article for India's National Health Policy. This is a government-wide plan. As best I can tell, one was published in 1983, and 2002, and 2017. The ABY program came from the 2017 one.

I wanted to share that I linked this article to that one. Blue Rasberry (talk) 11:35, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Modi in his radio show[edit]

@Louise340 Why do you think 1 crore hospitalization beneficiaries is fake data? It is official data spoke by Prime Minister himself and came in all leading news papers--Mageshsai (talk) 07:05, 11 June 2020 (UTC).[reply]

@Mageshsai: I checked out what Louis340 removed. I think the statement looks good, so I re-added the citation and this information in a differently worded statement. Blue Rasberry (talk) 22:13, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Database of hospitals[edit]

Someone added a link to all the hospitals participating in this program, which is at least thousands.

https://www.seminarsonly.com/tech/ayushman-bharat-yojana-list-of-hospitals-2018.php

I removed this. Already the list is out of date being from 2018, and providing a database to query is not useful for typical readers. The information could go into Wikidata through d:Wikidata:WikiProject Hospitals, because Wikidata can accept database information like this. Blue Rasberry (talk) 22:57, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Central Government Health Scheme[edit]

There was a Wikipedia article for Central Government Health Scheme, but its content is merged here now. Here is that content -

The Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) was started under the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in 1954 with the objective of providing comprehensive medical care facilities to Central Government employees, pensioners and their dependents residing in CGHS covered cities. This health scheme is now in operation with cities such as Bhubaneswar, Bhopal, Chandigarh, and Bangalore. The dispensary is the backbone of the Scheme. Instructions on these various matters have been issued from, time to time for the guidance of specialists and medical Officers. The Central Government Health Scheme offers health services through Allopathic and Homeopathic systems as well as through traditional Indian forms of medicine such as Ayurveda, Unani, Naturopathy, Yoga and Siddha.

I was not able to find sources for this when I checked Google Scholar and PubMed. I see some contemporary sources in journalism talking about this old scheme in the context of Ayushman Bharat Yojana, but not sources which focus on it in itself. I am putting the content here. If anyone finds its history or some connection to this program, then please cite sources and re-add it. Blue Rasberry (talk) 22:47, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
