SAHAYOG

Access to Medicine

SAHAYOG is a core member of the Jan Swasthya Abhiyan state chapter, deeply committed to the "health for all" campaign. We work to combat rising healthcare disparities and reduce the financial burden on patients by ensuring equitable access to medicines.

Our Initiatives

  • Public Education: We sensitize the community on the rational use of drugs and diagnostics to prevent misuse and unnecessary costs.
  • Advocacy for Free Services: We advocate for the effective implementation of government schemes like NIRAMAYA (free drugs) and NIDAN (free diagnostics) to make essential healthcare accessible to everyone.
  • Policy and Regulation: We push for the enforcement of the Clinical Establishment Act and the rollout of the Patients' Charter to protect patient rights and ensure accountability from healthcare providers.

As a collaborative partner, we use our grassroots experience to inform state and national platforms, helping to build a more holistic and robust public health system.
