Patient & Family Support
Support programs in India include government initiatives like Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP) for affordable medicines and Ayushman Bharat for home-based care, pharmaceutical company-led programs like Roche India’s Blue Tree Program offering financial and psychosocial support, and non-profit organizations such as Jan Swasthya Sahyog (JSS) that provide peer support and home healthcare services for chronic conditions. Technology is also playing a role in enhancing access through digital platforms, and Patient Support Groups offer valuable peer-to-peer emotional and practical support for various illnesses.
