    What is the full form of EAG States?

    The full form of EAG states is Empowered Action group states. EAG states are eight socio-economically backward states of India, which include Bihar, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa, Rajasthan, Uttaranchal, and Uttar Pradesh. These states contain a larger share of the country’s population that is almost 45% (Gupta and Talukdar 2017). This group has been formed so that the mentioned eight states will get focused attention which will eventually promote accelerated achievement for different programs of health and family welfare so that there is a tangible improvement in the performance of the states.

    EAG Background

    In India, it is very important to access healthcare to meet health needs. The government explored factors affecting access to public sources of healthcare among the Empowered Action Group (EAG) states of India. They also examined the extent to which Indians depend on public and private sources of healthcare in the EAG states.

    Mission of EAG

    The mission of EAG is to develop a fully functional and effective health delivery system at all levels which can work on a wide range of health departments, including water, education, nutrition, sanitation and social and gender equality. The institutional department of the health sector provides a focus on outcomes measured against Indian Public Health Standards for all health facilities.
