In order to provide comprehensive primary healthcare services, the National Urban Health Mission aims to establish Urban Primary Healthcare Centers, not as a stand-alone health facility, but as a hub of preventive, promotive and basic curative healthcare for its catchment population. Within its catchment area, the UPHC is responsible for providing the primary health care and public health needs of the population. The U-PHC is located preferably closer to slum or similar habitations. The hours of operation may be such so as to enable the urban working population to conveniently access the UPHC services. States may opt for any suitable timing, providing 8 hours of services, which are convenient to the community. It is recommended that the UPHC operates preferably from12 noon to 8 pm or in dual shifts (i.e. 8am to 12pm and 4pm to 8pm); Dual shift timing of UPHC could be flexible with the ability to be modified according to the catchment communities. The package of services envisaged at UPHC inclusive of preventive, promotive, curative, rehabilitative and palliative care. Further, in order to strengthen Comprehensive Primary Health Care across the country through “Ayushman Bharat-HWCs”, states are upgrading their Primary Health Care centers as Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs)
