No National Program for NCDMore than 50% of disease burden in India is due to NCDsMany National Programs for Communicable diseases
How to address Monitoring of Risk factors Tobacco Use Diet (Fruits and Vegetables) Body Mass Index Physical activity Blood Sugar Blood Lipid levels
Disease Specific ProgramCancerDiabetesBronchial AsthmaHypertension?
Need to develop a ProgramSentinel Health Monitoring Centres AssamDelhi Kerala MaharashtraTamil Nadu
Address Risk factors and determinantsat community level Inter-sectoral coordination
LegislationFor example Tobacco ControlAlcoholDiet, salt restrictionExercise
Primary Health Care SystemNeed to re-orient focusTraining of health workersMonitoring of blood pressure and urine sugar can be done at grass root levelHealth education programs
