DK Taneja's Health Policies and Programmes in India, 18/E for PG Medical Students and Public Health Professionals | Community Medicine (PSM) Guide to 48 National Health Programmes

Health Policies and Programmes in India, 18/E is a postgraduate supplementary text for Community Medicine (PSM) that brings together India's health policies, national programmes, and their implementation strategy in a single, structured volume. Every programme is examined from both the technical and managerial angle, so the same chapter that explains a scheme's clinical rationale also walks through how it is actually rolled out on the ground. Structured across 48 chapters organized into five sections -- Development of Healthcare Delivery System, Programs for Special Groups, Communicable Disease Programs, Noncommunicable Disease Programs, and Health-related Programs -- plus organizational charts and a detailed index. Each chapter uses bold scheme-name headers, numbered and bulleted breakdowns of scheme components, boxed subheadings, and cited references, keeping dense policy detail easy to scan and revise from. The 18th edition is fully current: the Ayushman Bharat chapter now covers Ayushman Arogya Mandir, Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), and PM Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission, alongside the Census 2027 framework and 2023 health infrastructure data. Section 2 adds the revised AEFI Guidelines 2024 and the ICDS scheme reworked as Saksham Anganwadi and Mission Poshan 2.0, and the new Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) is discussed against the earlier MGNREGA. Disease-programme chapters bring in the latest Drug-Resistant TB management guidelines and shorter TPT regimen, revised leprosy and filaria elimination guidelines, NACP Phase 5 with new HIV/STI guidelines, the new NP-NCD, and Tele MANAS under the National Mental Health Programme. Who This Book Is For: Postgraduate Medical Students: a core PG supplementary text for Community Medicine (PSM), covering the full policy-and-programme syllabus in one place. UG Medical Students: a reliable single-volume reference for the National Health Programmes portion of the MBBS Community Medicine curriculum. Medical Officers: a field-ready compilation of scheme guidelines, eligibility criteria, and implementation structure for day-to-day programme delivery. Public Health Professionals: consolidates policy, nutrition, and disease-control programme detail that otherwise sits scattered across separate government guidelines. PG Teaching Faculty: a dependable, regularly revised classroom reference for teaching Community Medicine programmes and policy. Why This Book Helps: One reference instead of scattered circulars: pulls together policy text, scheme structure, and the latest guideline revisions that would otherwise require tracking multiple government sources. Technical and managerial view together: every programme is explained from how it works clinically and how it is implemented administratively, matching how PG exams and fieldwork both test the subject. Stays current with fast-moving policy: the 18th edition folds in 2024-2026 guideline revisions and newly introduced missions so readers are not studying from outdated scheme details. Structured for quick recall: bold headers, numbered scheme breakdowns, and boxed subheadings make dense policy content easier to revise before exams or use for quick reference at work. Complete national-programme coverage: spans communicable disease control, noncommunicable disease control, maternal-child and nutrition programmes, and cross-cutting health-related programmes in one text.
