The model will be inspired by the UK's state-owned National Health Service (NHS), the largest and the oldest single-payer healthcare system in the world that provide healthcare benefits to every citizen.
A delegation led by Kerala's Health Minister has concluded a two-day visit to the University of Warwick to explore how the general practitioner (GP) system has adapted to pressures caused by population changes.
