Assessment of services for diagnosis, management, and prevention of thalassemia in India – the way forward
India manages one of the world’s largest populations with thalassemia major, and this original study highlights:
- The need for a unified national registry to guide planning and policy.
- Expansion of government-led programs improving access to leukodepleted transfusions, iron chelation, bone marrow transplants, and prenatal diagnosis.
- Persistent out-of-pocket costs for families and regional disparities, emphasizing the importance of equitable resource allocation.
A must-read for anyone working in thalassemia care, public health, and healthcare policy.”
