The document discusses India's National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) for improving primary health care. It notes that primary health care in India has historically been inadequate, with shortages of doctors and poor infrastructure in rural areas. NRHM was launched to address these issues by upgrading facilities, placing more health workers in villages, improving access to services like maternal and child care, and encouraging community involvement in local health planning. The goals of NRHM include reducing infant and maternal mortality and population growth rates by expanding coverage and access to basic health services, especially in underserved states.

Primary Health Care – Indian
vision, 1946
‘If it were possible to evaluate the loss, which this
country annually suffers through the avoidable
waste of valuable human material and the
lowering of human efficiency through
malnutrition and preventable morbidity, we feel
that the result would be so startling that the
whole country would be aroused and would not
rest until a radical change had been brought
about' (Bhore Committee Report 1946).

What is primary health care?
VI
• Primary health care is essential health care
based on practical, scientifically sound
• socially acceptable methods and technology
made universally accessible to individuals and
families in the community through their full
participation and
• at a cost that the community and country can
afford

Primary Health Care – an Alma Ata
product
VI
• It forms an integral part both of the country's
health system, of which it is the central function
and main focus, and of the overall social and
economic development of the community.
• It is the first level of contact of individuals, the
family and community with the national health
system bringing health care as close as possible
to where people live and work, and constitutes
the first element of a continuing health care
process.
5. Thursday, June 18, 2009 YSP5-IGIDR
Primary Health Care – an Alma Ata
product
• VII Primary health care:
1.reflects and evolves from the economic
conditions and sociocultural and political
characteristics of the country and its
communities and
2.is based on the application of the relevant
results of social, biomedical and health
services research and public health
experience;
6. Thursday, June 18, 2009 YSP5-IGIDR

sectors and aspects of national and community
development, in particular agriculture, animal
husbandry, food, industry, education, housing, public
works, communications and other sectors; and
demands the coordinated efforts of all those sectors;

WHY NRHM? PROBLEM 1
• High and Static IMR
• High Out of pocket expenses
• Population Stabilization unstable
• Public Health System thinning down
29. Thursday, June 18, 2009 YSP5-IGIDR
WHY NRHM – PROBLEM 2

• Health structure run with saline-
syringes
• NGO involvement also low
• Pvt sector though large not linked
with public health programmes

WHY NRHM – PROBLEM 3
• Budgetary Allocation to Health had
declined 1999 – 2002
• GoI contributing less than State
• Health care services not for poor
• 10% covered under insurance
• Hospitalized patients pay about 58% of
their annual income, 40% borrow
