&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;Contrary to the impression of an increased focus on health in the budget for 2018-19, not only has the overall allocation for health gone up only marginally over the revised estimates for the current year, the allocation for important programmes has actually been slashed. For instance, the allocation for the National Health Mission is down by 2.1% coming down from Rs 31,292 crore to Rs 30,634 crore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, while the budget speech said the new initiative for upgrading 1.5 lakh health and wellness centres&#039; envisioned as &amp;quot;the foundation of India&#039;s health system&amp;quot; was being allocated Rs 1,200 crore, a reading of the detailed expenditure budget shows that this too is coming out of the NHM outlay. If this amount were to be excluded, the NHM budget would be almost 6% less than the current year&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, some continuing programmes under NHM will get less funds than they did. In any case, Rs 1,200 crore may be too little to fund 1.5 lakh such centres, according to Dr T Sundararaman, Dean of the school of health systems studies at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;A health and wellness centre requires, by current government projections, about Rs 17 lakh to operationalise and so Rs 1,200 crore would pay for only about 10,000 of these,&amp;quot; he pointed out. He also noted that this was similar to finance minister Arun Jaitley&#039;s announcement of a National Dialysis Programme in the 2016-17 budget to ensure that every district hospital dialysis facilities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 2,000 new dialysis centres were to be started but there was no separate allocation for it. That too was to come from NHM money. While Jaitley&#039;s budget speech this year announced the setting up of 24 new government medical colleges and hospitals by upgrading existing district hospitals, the budget allocation for this head was slashed from Rs 3,300 crore in the current year to Rs 2,888 crore in 2018-19, a decline of 12.5%. &lt;br /&gt;

$disp = &#039;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;-The Times of India&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;Contrary to the impression of an increased focus on health in the budget for 2018-19, not only has the overall allocation for health gone up only marginally over the revised estimates for the current year, the allocation for important programmes has actually been slashed. For instance, the allocation for the National Health Mission is down by 2.1% coming down from Rs 31,292 crore to Rs 30,634 crore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moreover, while the budget speech said the new initiative for upgrading 1.5 lakh health and wellness centres&#039; envisioned as &amp;quot;the foundation of India&#039;s health system&amp;quot; was being allocated Rs 1,200 crore, a reading of the detailed expenditure budget shows that this too is coming out of the NHM outlay. If this amount were to be excluded, the NHM budget would be almost 6% less than the current year&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus, some continuing programmes under NHM will get less funds than they did. In any case, Rs 1,200 crore may be too little to fund 1.5 lakh such centres, according to Dr T Sundararaman, Dean of the school of health systems studies at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;A health and wellness centre requires, by current government projections, about Rs 17 lakh to operationalise and so Rs 1,200 crore would pay for only about 10,000 of these,&amp;quot; he pointed out. He also noted that this was similar to finance minister Arun Jaitley&#039;s announcement of a National Dialysis Programme in the 2016-17 budget to ensure that every district hospital dialysis facilities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About 2,000 new dialysis centres were to be started but there was no separate allocation for it. That too was to come from NHM money. While Jaitley&#039;s budget speech this year announced the setting up of 24 new government medical colleges and hospitals by upgrading existing district hospitals, the budget allocation for this head was slashed from Rs 3,300 crore in the current year to Rs 2,888 crore in 2018-19, a decline of 12.5%. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/big-push-for-health-key-schemes-face-funds-cut/articleshow/62877905.cms&quot; title=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/big-push-for-health-key-schemes-face-funds-cut/articleshow/62877905.cms&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

That too was to come from NHM money. While Jaitley&#039;s budget speech this year announced the setting up of 24 new government medical colleges and hospitals by upgrading existing district hospitals, the budget allocation for this head was slashed from Rs 3,300 crore in the current year to Rs 2,888 crore in 2018-19, a decline of 12.5%. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/big-push-for-health-key-schemes-face-funds-cut/articleshow/62877905.cms&quot; title=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/big-push-for-health-key-schemes-face-funds-cut/articleshow/62877905.cms&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;,

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;Contrary to the impression of an increased focus on health in the budget for 2018-19, not only has the overall allocation for health gone up only marginally over the revised estimates for the current year, the allocation for important programmes has actually been slashed. For instance, the allocation for the National Health Mission is down by 2.1% coming down from Rs 31,292 crore to Rs 30,634 crore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, while the budget speech said the new initiative for upgrading 1.5 lakh health and wellness centres&#039; envisioned as &amp;quot;the foundation of India&#039;s health system&amp;quot; was being allocated Rs 1,200 crore, a reading of the detailed expenditure budget shows that this too is coming out of the NHM outlay. If this amount were to be excluded, the NHM budget would be almost 6% less than the current year&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, some continuing programmes under NHM will get less funds than they did. In any case, Rs 1,200 crore may be too little to fund 1.5 lakh such centres, according to Dr T Sundararaman, Dean of the school of health systems studies at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;A health and wellness centre requires, by current government projections, about Rs 17 lakh to operationalise and so Rs 1,200 crore would pay for only about 10,000 of these,&amp;quot; he pointed out. He also noted that this was similar to finance minister Arun Jaitley&#039;s announcement of a National Dialysis Programme in the 2016-17 budget to ensure that every district hospital dialysis facilities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 2,000 new dialysis centres were to be started but there was no separate allocation for it. That too was to come from NHM money. While Jaitley&#039;s budget speech this year announced the setting up of 24 new government medical colleges and hospitals by upgrading existing district hospitals, the budget allocation for this head was slashed from Rs 3,300 crore in the current year to Rs 2,888 crore in 2018-19, a decline of 12.5%. &lt;br /&gt;

<em>NEW DELHI: </em>Contrary to the impression of an increased focus on health in the budget for 2018-19, not only has the overall allocation for health gone up only marginally over the revised estimates for the current year, the allocation for important programmes has actually been slashed. For instance, the allocation for the National Health Mission is down by 2.1% coming down from Rs 31,292 crore to Rs 30,634 crore.<br />

<br />
&quot;A health and wellness centre requires, by current government projections, about Rs 17 lakh to operationalise and so Rs 1,200 crore would pay for only about 10,000 of these,&quot; he pointed out.
