Odisha, formerly known as Orissa, is located on the eastern coast of India. The state boasts a rich cultural heritage, a long coastline, and various natural resources. Over the years, Odisha has made significant strides in improving its healthcare infrastructure, catering to both urban and rural populations.

Government Hospitals[edit]

  • Kalinga Hospital, Bhubaneswar: A multi-specialty hospital offering advanced medical treatments and is renowned for its patient care.
  • SUM Hospital, Bhubaneswar: Associated with Siksha 'O' Anusandhan University, this teaching hospital offers a blend of medical education and patient care services.

  • Kar Clinic, Bhubaneswar: Known for its gynecological and obstetric care, this hospital has been a name to reckon with in women's healthcare.

Rural and Community Healthcare[edit]

Odisha, with its vast rural expanse, has a network of Primary Health Centers (PHCs) and Community Health Centers (CHCs). These centers, strategically located in rural and tribal belts, play a pivotal role in grassroots-level healthcare delivery. The state government has been instrumental in setting up mobile health units to reach out to the most remote locations.

Challenges and Opportunities[edit]

While Odisha has made considerable advancements in healthcare, the state still grapples with challenges related to infant mortality and maternal health, especially in tribal regions. The state, with its rich tradition of Ayurveda and other traditional medicine forms, has an opportunity to integrate these into mainstream healthcare, offering holistic wellness solutions.
