PD 05 – Scaling Up Integration of NCDs in Primary Care

India has the second highest number of people living with diabetes and hypertension in the world. Under their presidency of the G20, India's Ministry of Health and Family Welfare announced an ambitious “75/25” initiative - 75 million people with hypertension and diabetes to be put on standard care by 2025, through primary health care centers. Inter-sectoral efforts and collaboration of public and private sectors will be needed to address the growing burden of Non-communicable Diseases (NCD) in the country. Amongst its actions, India aims to train 40,000 Primary Health Care Medical Officers on Standard Treatment for NCD to strengthen healthcare services closer to the community. The United Nations Institute for Training and Research and The Defeat-NCD Partnership are part of these efforts. During the panel discussions, participants will share more details on India's largest NCD primary care initiative, shed light on what the centerpieces of an effective NCD plan are in low- and middle-income country settings and discuss learnings and opportunities for partnerships and innovative approaches to expand NCD care in primary care.
