Abstract

Nearly 400 million Indians (30 % of the total population) lack any financial protection for health which leads to very high out of pocket expenditure. In India more than 90 million people spend 10–25 % of household expenses on healthcare. This is a serious threat to Sustainable Development Goal 3, which aims at providing universal health coverage along with protection from catastrophic spending on health.
