Public health spending in India lags behind global averages, leading to high out-of-pocket costs. Schemes like Ayushman Bharat attempt to expand coverage, but quality and accessibility in rural areas remain uneven. The private sector dominates tertiary care, sometimes resulting in high costs. Exam lines of inquiry include essential drug availability, the push for generic medicines, and the emerging telemedicine ecosystem.

The pandemic underscored systemic vulnerabilities—like hospital bed shortages—spurring calls for higher public investment and better health infrastructure planning.
