Dr amratya sen rightly pointed out that after right to food and work this being the most important duty of government to bring on as a legislative body.
comparing with countries developed(except usa) and developing like hongkong south korea taiwan etc have the right enforced for its citizen. example of china that before 1979 all residents were covered under the system but after that govt made it mandatory for all citizens to buy insurance cover for themselves and result was that from 100% cover it dropped to mere 12% and realising there fault in 2004 they again enforced the right and now the cover has gone upto 96%.
talking about preventive healthcare he says that govt at times even pays healthy amounts to private players for catastrophically ill patients whereas the deseas could be avoided at very begining stage.
Talking about govt refraining from health care and education system in india he says that it is not so that govt can't do any thing, but that we have made the mentality towards it and given the opportunity to the private sector. Citing the example of how govt intervention and commitment has saved several lives in the phailin storm by evacuating millions of people from the coast, apart from the fact that it was 3 times more furious than katrina storm,;dr sen seems justifying his argument.
Dr sen presents very clear view that economically linking the cause of less gdp allocation on healthcare ie about 1.2% as compared to 3% in china we are on the wrong move, as he suggests that mostle the driving force of economic development in asia and specially that of india is large himan capital available and once you spend more towards its healthcare more the economy will be developed.
