  47. Status Of Health Care In India Since independence, we have created a vast public health infrastructure comprising of 1,45,000 Sub-centres, 23,000 Public Health Centres (PHCs) and 3222 Community Health Centres (CHCs). However, it is estimated that this vast infrastructure is able to cater only to 20% of the population, while 80% of healthcare needs are still being provided by the private sector. Poor access to health leads to avoidable incidence of morbidity, mortality and out-of-pocket expenses, often leading to indebtedness. In rural areas especially, there are pockets of under-served populations where the vicious circle of poverty, malnutrition and poor health reinforce each other.
