“The state will achieve universal coverage for healthcare and eliminate stunting and malnutrition among children.”
On track, but not fulfilled. The promise is to achieve universal coverage for healthcare. Official Goa sources confirm that Deen Dayal Swasthya Seva Yojana provides health coverage to the resident population of Goa residing for five years or more, with Goa Online listing resident eligibility and exclusions for those already covered by government medical reimbursement. The Goa Health Services budget for 2026-27 also confirms continued health-sector budget support. However, universal healthcare coverage is broader than insurance eligibility alone and requires access to quality healthcare without financial hardship. Approved sources confirm substantial coverage infrastructure, but not full universal healthcare in that broader sense.
Goa Budget 2026-27 provided a Health Services demand, confirming continued budget support for health services and health infrastructure.
