The Kerala government in collaboration with a United Kingdom university will revamp its health-care model to address issues surrounding capacity development for primary care, training, and research.

The model will be inspired by the UK’s State-owned National Health Service (NHS), the largest and the oldest single-payer health-care system in the world that provides health-care benefits to every citizen.

A delegation led by Health Minister K.K. Shylaja visited the University of Warwick in central England to explore how the general practitioner (GP) system had adapted to pressures caused by population changes, a university release said.

Dean of Warwick Medical School Professor Sudhesh Kumar said his team was keen to assist the Kerala government to understand how it was tackling issues such as “capacity development for primary care, translating research into practice, and evaluating the impact of these interventions.

‘‘We look forward to mutually beneficial collaborations with Kerala,’’ Mr. Kumar said.
