Integrative Diabetes Care Programme
Empowering BAMS, BHMS & BUMS Doctors Through AYUSH & Modern Medicine
A National Up-skilling Initiative for India’s Diabetes Challenge
Over 101 million Indians already live with diabetes, and an additional 136 million are pre-diabetic, with the fastest rise seen in semi-urban and rural regions.
Even if diabetes care were evenly distributed, each registered doctor would need to manage 100+ diabetes patients in addition to their regular practice—an unrealistic burden without structured up-skilling.
Notably, 50–70% of first patient contact occurs at the primary-care level, where AYUSH doctors often serve as the only accessible healthcare providers.
India’s Growing Diabetes Burden
India is facing an unprecedented diabetes epidemic.

Transforming India’s Diabetes Care Workforce
Why Up-skilling AYUSH Doctors Is Urgent
India cannot achieve SDG-3 targets for Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) unless the existing AYUSH workforce is rapidly and safely equipped to deliver evidence-based diabetes care.
With approximately 7.5 lakh registered AYUSH doctors and an improved doctor-population ratio of 1:811, AYUSH practitioners play a pivotal role—especially in rural and tier-2/3 areas where allopathic infrastructure is limited.
The Pivotal Role of AYUSH in Primary Care
Frontline Providers: AYUSH practitioners manage over 40% of primary-care visits outside metropolitan regions
High Patient Load: Each AYUSH doctor supports thousands of patients across communicable and non-communicable diseases
Community Trust: Strong patient relationships enable better adherence to lifestyle-based interventions
This positions AYUSH doctors as critical agents in diabetes prevention, early detection, and long-term management.
