    Kounteya Sinha Aug 8, 2012 Mental patients included in BPL health scheme NEW DELHI: In the maiden endorsement of India's swelling burden of patients suffering from mental disorders, the Union health ministry has included it under the Rashtriya Arogya Nidhi (RAN) — the scheme that till now provided financial assistance to only below poverty line (BPL) patients, who are suffering from major life-threatening diseases. All BPL patients suffering from mental disorders like depression, anxiety, adjustment and personality disorders, alcohol and drug abuse will get a free one-time grant of up to Rs 1 lakh for treatment at any super-specialty government hospital/institutes. The ministry has also included diabetes — an ailment that presently affects nearly 50 million Indians under RAN. A note prepared by the ministry says, "7% of population suffers from mental disorders. Around 13 crore Indians are suffering from some form of mental illness — from depression and anxiety syndromes to psychosomatic disorders and schizophrenia. Over 90% remain untreated. There is less than one psychiatrist is available for every four lakh population. The psychiatrist/ population ratio is one for every million." For providing financial assistance to the needy patients, an advance of Rs 10 lakh to Rs 40 lakh are kept with medical superintendents of institutes like the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, RML Hospital, Safdarjung Hospital, Lady Hardinge Medical College (Delhi), PGIMER (Chandigarh), JIPMER (Puducherry), NIMHANS (Bangalore), CNCI (Kolkata), SGPGIMS (Lucknow), Gandhi Memorial and Associated Hospitals (Lucknow), RIMS (Imphal) and NEIGRIHMS (Shillong) to enable immediate sanction of an amount up to Rs 1 lakh in each deserving case reporting for treatment. In cases where the quantum of financial assistance is likely to exceed Rs 1.5 lakh, they will be referred to RAN for consideration, which will be looked into by an expert panel. With around 7% of India's population suffering from some form of mental disorders, Union health minister Ghulam Nabi says it is a "matter of great concern," with such disorders still grossly overlooked in India. Azad said about 20% of all patients seen by primary healthcare doctors have one or more mental disorders. One in four families is likely to have at least one member with a behavioral or mental disorder. Now, India has 23% of required psychiatrists, 25% of required psychiatric nurses and only 3% of the required clinical psychologists and psychiatric social workers. In absolute numbers, India has 3,500 psychiatrists, 500 clinical psychologists, 300 psychiatric social workers and about a 1000 psychiatric nurses. As against 30,000 beds required for the mentally ill, only about 200 beds are available. "Even by a conservative yardstick, there is a shortage of about 8,000 psychiatrists, 17,000 clinical psychologists, 23,000 psychiatric social workers and 9,000 psychiatric nurses," Azad said. That's why the ministry is now developing 11 Institutions as centres of excellence in mental health, which will add 44 psychiatrists, 176 clinical psychologists, 176 psychiatric social workers and 220 psychiatric nurses annually. Each centre will be given Rs 30 crore. Around 29 state-run mental hospitals and 88 psychiatry wings in government colleges are being upgraded. http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-08-08/india/33099821_1_mental-disorders-mental-illness-psychiatric-nurses
