The expenditure for patients visiting and availing services from Aam Aadmi Clinics is the least compared to other Govt run Urban PHCs and Private Healthcare Facilities. Additionally, the Govt's expenditure on Aam Aadmi Clinics is four times less compared to Urban PHCs. Cost per visit: At a private clinic, the cost was found to be eight times that at an Aam Aadmi Clinic and 3.5 times that at an Urban PHC in 2019–20. Free drugs & Free diagnostics: A primary survey conducted as part of the same larger study showed proximity, free drugs, and free diagnostics to be the major reasons for choosing Aam Aadmi Clinics. Reducing the burden on public hospitals: In 2014-15, outpatient visits to government-run clinics were around 38%, while by 2019-20, they had increased to above 52%. This massive increase is credited to the success of the Aam Aadmi Clinic model implemented by the Delhi government. Authors: Charu C.
