ABSTRACT:
Health infrastructure plays a crucial role to achieve the target ‘Health for All’. During the time frame of 2019 to 2021, Jharkhand has shown a greater improvement than Bihar in terms of percentage change, with a 67% rise in the total number of Primary Health Centers (PHCs). However, Bihar has a higher total number of operational PHCs, with 2034 in total. India had a 5% increase in Community Health Centers (CHCs) between 2019 and 2021, with the most significant expansion seen in Bihar, where there was an impressive 104% increase. The Scheduled Castes (SCs) of Bihar have had a significant 4% increase in population from 2019 to 2021, whereas Jharkhand has witnessed a 6% growth within the same time frame. It is essential to provide more healthcare services through public health care system in order to safeguard the well-being and survival of all individuals.
