▴ Jagananna Arogya Suraksha Scheme
This survey goes beyond identifying common illnesses; it also focuses on chronic health conditions and nutritional needs of pregnant women, new mothers, underweight individuals, and those afflicted by diseases like leprosy and TB.

In a significant move to enhance healthcare access for the underprivileged, the Minister for Health, Vidadala Rajini, announced the launch of the Jagananna Arogya Suraksha scheme on September 30. This initiative promises to be a blessing for those who struggle to access quality healthcare. Let's get into the details of this ambitious program and its potential impact on the lives of people in the state.

Door-to-Door Awareness Campaign

To ensure that every eligible individual benefits from this scheme, an awareness campaign is set to kickstart on September 15. Village and ward volunteers will go door-to-door, contacting people and educating them about the scheme. This campaign aims to make sure that no one is left in the dark about the opportunity to improve their health and well-being.

In-Depth Health Survey

Starting from September 16, a meticulous door-to-door survey will be conducted. This survey goes beyond identifying common illnesses; it also focuses on chronic health conditions and the unique medical and nutritional needs of pregnant women, new mothers, underweight individuals, and those afflicted by diseases like leprosy and TB.


Healthcare in Schools

Our children's health is of paramount importance. To ensure their well-being, the Education Department will conduct medical tests for school students, enabling the early identification and management of medical conditions. This proactive approach will contribute to healthier, happier students.

Medical Camps in Every Mandal

From September 30 onwards, there will be a daily medical camp in each Mandal, with an action plan covering all 695 Mandals in the state. These medical camps will feature specialist doctors, general physicians, and other healthcare professionals, ensuring that the best care is available to everyone. Additionally, an ample supply of medicines will be procured and distributed well in advance to guarantee smooth operations.

Specialist Doctors from various Hospitals

In a significant development, specialist doctors from various Hospitals will be present at these medical camps. This addition further enhances the quality of healthcare services provided under the Jagananna Arogya Suraksha scheme, reaffirming the commitment to delivering top-notch healthcare to all.

A Boon for Rural Communities

The Minister for Health, Vidadala Rajini, expressed her optimism about this new initiative, emphasizing that it will be a blessing for people living in rural areas of the state. With a month-long schedule of medical camps staffed by dedicated healthcare professionals, this program has the potential to transform healthcare accessibility for the less fortunate.

The Jagananna Arogya Suraksha scheme is a ray of hope for the poor and underserved communities in Vijayawada. With its door-to-door awareness campaign, in-depth health survey, customized care for tribal areas, healthcare in schools, and daily medical camps, it promises a new era of healthcare access and well-being. This initiative reaffirms the government's commitment to prioritizing the health and welfare of its citizens, especially those who need it the most
