The massive outbreak of the Corona
Virus is endangering the human’s existence and this pandemic has confiscated too
many lives. But people are continuously affected by this contagious disease and
to contain the spreading, the Government had announced the complete lockdown.
Due to this daunting situation, a deplorable impact seizes the health services
management in India. Thousands of children might already have forsaken vital
immunizations. The adults also have missed out their medical treatments due to
the outspreading of COVID-19 and subsequent lockdown.
Disruption of
health services due to the outrageous spreading of Corona Virus:
Acute statistics have demonstrated a
disquieting effect in the health care system in India in March. As local health
care bodies are focusing on the outspreading of the Coronavirus, the situation
has significantly diminished the confined inpatient, outpatient, and emergency
medication for contagious and non-communicable disease. It has also reduced
immunization schedules, and curtailed access to mental health treatment.
The aforementioned analysis is based
on the data derived from the NHM. This programme covers all the private health
care systems in India, sub-centers, district hospitals, community centers, etc.
The health services management of India is severely impacted due to the ghastly
outspread of COVID-19 as per the data for March. It was demonstrated that
1,50,000 facilities were given across 627 districts. This means the data for
40000 facilities in the rest of the 75 districts were not indicated.
What is the role of Government in health in India?
The Government of India has played a
leading role in health services management by affirming the significant
resources through pooling resources, public budgets, and other mechanism
resources. These resources are allocated for buying myriad health services,
development of health, and finally guiding the resource allocation procedure.
Maternal health services management has been severely reduced:
The sudden deterioration in health
services management resulted in 1,00,000 children missed their BCG vaccination,
which protects them against Tuberculosis (TB). The next case of 2,00,000 people
had missed the vaccination against meningitis, tetanus, diphtheria, whooping
cough, and many more.
Quality of
Healthcare in India:
The quality of healthcare in India depends
on many parameters. Like feasible care, safe delivery, patient-oriented, and on-time
care. All these are affecting due to a continuous rise in COVID19 cases. But there
are differences in quality between urban and rural areas. The same is also seen
between private and public health services management.
According to the NHM data, a maximum
of 3,50,000 or fewer people got diabetes vaccinations. 1,50,000 or fewer people
received the medications for mental illness and 1,00,000 people received the
outpatient cancer medications in March 2020. This clearly shows the losses of health
services management.
Outpatient medication for all leading non-communicable diseases declined in March:
Statistics of outpatient medication
and disruption in health service management in India
The above statistics have
encountered intense debate on the outbreak and the spread of undisclosed
COVID-19 morbidity and fatality.
According to the NITI Aayog, the
diminished admissions in the hospital have significantly influenced the structure
of the health care system in India. But, the NHM data demonstrated that the
decreasing rates of hospitalization could conceal a deficiency of access to
health care.
Despite the disruptions in health
services management, the government is ubiquitously providing all the amenities
to the patients. But this should be kept in mind that, without any kind of
transport system people cannot even come down to the hospital. So these
statistics have clearly shown the people are unable to visit the hospitals due
to the lockdown. Although Indian Government might provide sufficient health
services management, people are not capable to avail of the facility due to the
lockdown.
Overall, due to this pandemic, many
people are falling ill and even dying at their homes due to the unavailability
of proper treatment. Health services management has significantly disrupted and
its detrimental effect leads to an increase in death rate. But we hope that the
onerous situation will surely come to an end one day. Managing all the mental
stress and depression the health services management of India will hopefully
run in its full capacity and efficiency.
