## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF AYUSH (SHRI SARBANANDA SONOWAL)

(a)  The  total  number  of  Ayush  hospitals  and  dispensaries  functioning  across  the  country, State/UT-wise including Andhra Pradesh, are furnished as Annexure-I.

(b)  &  (c)  Public  Health  being  a  state  subject,  setting  up  of  integrated  Ayush  hospitals  comes under  the  purview  of  respective  State/UT  Governments  including  Andhra  Pradesh.  However under NAM there is a provision of providing financial assistance to State/UT Governments for the  establishment  of  50/30/10  bedded  integrated  Ayush  hospitals.  In  this  regard  proposal  is required to be submitted by the respective State/UT Governments through State Annual Action Plans (SAAPs) as per the provisions of NAM guidelines. As per the proposals received from the State  Government  of  Andhra  Pradesh  through  SAAP,  Ministry  has  approved  two  units  of integrated Ayush hospitals, one each at Kakinada and Vishakhapatnam.

(d)  Government  of  India  has  adopted  a  strategy  of  Co-location  of  Ayush  facilities  at  Primary Health Centres (PHCs), Community Health Centres (CHCs) and District Hospitals (DHs), thus enabling the choice to the patients for different systems of medicines under a single window. The engagement  of  Ayush  doctors/  paramedics  and  their  training  is  supported  by  the  Ministry  of Health & Family Welfare under National Health Mission (NHM), while the support for Ayush infrastructure, equipment/ furniture and medicines are provided by the Ministry of Ayush under NAM as shared responsibilities.
