The document discusses plans to convert India's sub-centers into Health and Wellness Centers (HWC) as part of efforts to strengthen primary healthcare. Key points include: 1) Over 150,000 sub-centers will be converted to HWCs with essential infrastructure like examination rooms, diagnostics, waiting areas, and IT systems. 2) HWCs will be staffed by Community Health Officers, ANMs and ASHAs providing services like antenatal care, immunizations, NCD screening and management of common illnesses. 3) Services will follow a continuum of care from village to facilities, and HWCs will conduct community outreach and referrals to higher levels as needed.
