‘THREE ASHAS WHO DIED DURING COVID19 WERE COMPENSATED ADEQUATELY'

KASHMIR LIFE (KL): How is the NHM different from the Health Services Department and what is the philosophy behind having parallel health services?

CHOUDHARY MOHAMMAD YASIN (CMY): National Health Mission (NHM) works at the overall UT level and the thrust of the Mission is on establishing a fully functional, community-owned, decentralized health care delivery system with inter-sectoral convergence at all levels, to ensure simultaneous action on a wide range of determinants of health such as water, sanitation, education, nutrition, social and gender equality. There is no parallel health system. In fact, the Mission Directorate of NHM works jointly with the Directorates of Health and Family Welfare under the overall control, supervision and Coordination of the Administrative Department, Health and Medical Education, Jammu and Kashmir. NHM supplements and complements the goals of Health and Family Welfare, through financial support, development of infrastructure, development of machinery and equipment, filling the gaps of human resources and providing technical expertise of hospital and healthcare administrators, Management Experts, Financial and IT experts. The Mission also involves various national and international development partners in these endeavours.

KL: The NHM has been at the frontline against the Covid19. But what are the finer details of your operations against the pandemic?
