DMPQ Premium- Discuss the important features of Madhya pradesh state health policy.

The policy identifies some core issues to improve the access, quality and coverage of health care in MP. The financing for health care is inadequate and should be increased particularly from the public sources. Further, the financing, as out of pocket payment at the time of receiving services is regressive from equity perspective, and is also against the interest of the poor.
