Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Thursday said the Centre and state governments need to come together for providing better healthcare to the people and proper utilisation of resources.

"We are running the Ayushman Bharat scheme while the states also have their own schemes. The Centre and the states need to merge the health schemes so that the merged resources start benefiting the patient", Jaitley said at the 15th Health Summit by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
