To address the high burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in India, Swasthya Sankalp project has been launched across Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Karnataka to strengthen CPHC services for effective hypertension and diabetes management. The project has implemented several critical interventions to enhance hypertension and diabetes management across three states. The project focuses on improving supply chain management through advocacy for ready reckoners, maintaining drug registers, eAushadhi-based stock analysis, and estimating drug requirements. NCD programme reviews are conducted regularly, integrating key metric indicators and developing factsheets with district rankings. Strengthening NCD portal use involves advocacy and handholding for real-time data entries, population and ABHA seeding, routine data analysis, and addressing zero-data entries.
