The National Health Authority (NHA) has introduced a new system to measure and grade hospital performance under the flagship scheme Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY). The new model aims at shifting the focus of measuring the performance of hospitals from the volume of services provided to the value of healthcare services. Here, the payment will be outcome-based and providers will be rewarded according to the quality of the treatment delivered. The Health Ministry said that the new model with the reward system will consequently reduce the effects of the disease in the population in the long term.<br />''<br />''<br />
