The Punjab Health Systems Corporation (PHSC) was created as a non-commercial statutory corporation in 1996 vide Punjab Act no. 6 of 1996, with the purpose to establish, expand, improve and administer curative and preventive services at secondary level health care institutions in the state of Punjab. The corporation has taken over the District Hospitals, Sub-Divisional Hospitals (SDHs) and Community Health Centres (CHCs) along with some rural and urban Medical Institutions. Training Institutes viz. State Institute of Health and Family Welfare (SIHFW), Mohali, and State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences (SINPS), Badal, Distt. Muktsar and Institute of Mental Health, Amritsar have also been included under PHSC institutions.

The present study was conducted with the aim to review the extent to which the objective of the Health Systems Development Project II focusing on improving the health care delivery at the secondary level of health care has been achieved. It was an exploratory study for situational analysis in order to identify the areas of sub-optimal utilisation and suggest the measures for improvement. The study was conducted through the in-depth review of structural organisational and operational framework of PHSC. The site visits to review at least 50% of the 20 District Hospitals located in the different regions of the state and 26% of 37 SDHs and 10% of the 111 CHCs were made along with two special hospitals (Patiala & Bhatinda) and all the training institutions.

Ten teams each comprising of faculty and research staff from National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW) visited each of the 10 selected sample districts of Punjab and collected the data from respective district areas comprising of District Hospital, Sub divisional Hospital and Community Health Centre.

It is hoped that the report of this study will be of considerable help to the State Government and other stakeholders in improving health care delivery system at secondary level of health care.

Executive Summary

The Punjab Health Systems Corporation (PHSC), has been enacted through “The Punjab Health Systems Corporation Act, 1996 (Punjab Act No. 6 of 1996)”. The ‘Second State Health Systems Development Project’ was started under PHSC in the year 1996, with fi nancial assistance from World Bank, with an objective to upgrade health services at secondary level. This project ended in the year 2002, and since then the Government of Punjab is supervising it through PHSC. Today, PHSC has 166 health institutions throughout the state of Punjab (86 in rural and 80 in urban areas), including District Hospitals, Sub Divisional Hospitals and Community Health Centres. Three Training Institutions viz. State Institute of Health and Family Welfare (SIHFW), Mohali, State institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences (SINPS), Badal, and Institute of Mental Health, Amritsar have also been included under PHSC.

The present study is an in-depth review of structural organisation and operational framework of the PHSC, and an assessment of the achievements/success of the Health Systems Development Project in improving health care delivery at secondary health care level. The assessment also meant to bring to light the gaps in delivery of health care services and to provide practical recommendations for further strengthening the system. For the present review, a Review Committee was constituted and it conducted on site visits to 10 District Hospitals, 10 Sub Divisional Hospitals, 11 Community Health Centres, 2 Speciality Hospitals and 3 Training Institutions, which were selected using Population Proportionate Sampling Technique (PPS). Key quantitative information was collected using Facility Survey Checklist, Interview Schedules (for health staff), Exit Interviews of clients, and Interviews with other stakeholders. The information obtained was further triangulated with qualitative observations by conducting Focus Group Discussions with the community. The study was conducted between 15th January 2008 and 5th March 2008.

It was revealed following the study that health facilities under PHSC are well accessible and the buildings and other infrastructure are appropriate. But the cleanliness of facility and surroundings, as well as landscape requires more attention. Some health facilities were not having the required equipment and among those which were having them, there were few where these equipment were either not being used or was non-functional. Shortage of manpower was revealed as a generalised observation in almost all the health facilities, particularly the specialists, laboratory technicians and Class IV employees. This issue was of grave concern in Sub Divisional Hospitals (SDHs) and Community Health Centres (CHCs). Another observation was that there is no separate cadre for GDMOs (General Duty Medical Offi cers) and Specialists, which is leading to poor OPD (Out patient department) services since the specialist doctors have to do emergency duties as well.

Availability of medicines, particularly of the essential medicines was lacking in almost all the health facilities, and patients had to buy it from private medical shops, which was a matter of dissatisfaction among majority of patients as well as community. Health facilities were also found purchasing few essential drugs from the user charges and were not being supplied from State

or district level. Besides this although laboratory facilities were available in all the institutions visited, it was observed that they were not able to provide services most of the time due to lack of reagents and equipment. Radiologists and lab technicians were also not available in majority of these institutions. Emergency services were also found grossly compromised, particularly in the sub divisional hospitals, mainly due to staff vacancy and security reasons. Overall the health facilities visited were found defi cient with regard to disaster preparedness, referral linkages, record keeping, store management and in provision of basic facilities like toilets to the visiting clients.

It was observed that majority of clients approaching PHSC institutions were females belonging to poor socio-economic strata of the community. It was revealed that well to do families prefer to visit private doctors, because of better quality and prompt services there as compared to Government facilities. Major reasons for this discontentment were more waiting time due to lack of doctors and other staff, lack of medicines and other investigative facilities and poor behaviour of some of the health staff. Overall experience of respondents at OPDs of the various health institutions was not found to be very satisfactory. This observation was in particular for CHCs and District Hospitals, which require prompt attention.

The community also opined and favoured the observations obtained at the OPD and in-patient departments of the health facilities. Lack of medicines, specialised doctors particularly gynaecologists, lack of diagnostic equipment, investigation facilities, appropriate emergency services, and referrals including ambulance service were major issues raised by the community, which needs to be addressed for improving the acceptability of these services.

In brief, it was revealed from the community, clients and other stakeholders, that the project has succeeded in building the infrastructure. But its further maintenance, its capacity to address the community needs and satisfaction and provision of quality health care services through public health facilities still need to be addressed for better utilisation of the available resources.

Hospital services at secondary level play a vital and complimentary role to the tertiary and primary health care systems and together form a comprehensive district based health care system.

It was observed that in the state of Punjab, District Hospitals, Sub-divisional Hospitals and Community Health Centres were having critical gaps in buildings, equipment, manpower, and skills and were unable to provide basic health care services. With an objective to improve effi ciency and quality of the health care provided at fi rst referral level hospitals, the State Government took an initiative to prepare a proposal for seeking aid from the World Bank.

On the request of the State Government, the World Bank team visited the State in March 1995 to review preparation and pre-appraisal of the proposal for the “Health Systems Development Project-II”. On March 21st, 1996, the International Development Association (IDA) approved credit of SDR 235.5 million (US$350 million equivalent) under the multi-states Health Systems Development Project for implementation in the States of Karnataka, Punjab and West Bengal. The Development Credit Agreement and the Project Agreements were signed on April 18, 1996 on behalf of the Government of India and respective states. Thus, Punjab Health Systems Corporation was incorporated through enactment of Legislative act “The Punjab Health Systems Corporation Act, 1996 (Punjab Act No. 6 of 1996)”.

The Corporation was incorporated through measures by the Government of Punjab to bring more administrative fl exibility for implementation of the ‘Second State Health Systems Development Project’ with World Bank assistance to upgrade Health Services at secondary level.

The Corporation took over 166 Institutions, which included District Hospitals, Sub-Divisional Hospitals and Community Health Centres. 86 Medical Institutions are situated in rural areas and 80 are in urban areas. Two training institutes viz. State Institute of Health and Family Welfare, Mohali and State institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal, Distt. Muktsar have also been constructed and were included under PHSC institutions.

The World Bank sanctioned the Second State Health Systems Development Project of US$106.10 million to upgrade the envisaged areas means clinical, diagnostic and other services provided by community/rural, sub-divisional/taluka/state general and District Hospitals in the State of Punjab.

4.1 Structural and Operational Framework of Punjab Health

Systems Corporation (PHSC)

A review of structural, organisational and operational framework of Punjab Health Systems Corporation (PHSC) was carried out. The detailed fi ndings are as follows:

The World Bank team on the request of the State Government visited the State in March-95 to review preparation and pre-appraisal of the proposal for the “Health Systems Development Project-II”. Thus, Punjab Health Systems Corporation had been incorporated through enactment of Legislative act “The Punjab Health Systems Corporation Act, 1996 (Punjab Act No. 6 of 1996)’. The Corporation has been incorporated through measures by the State Government of Punjab to bring more administrative fl exibility for implementation with assistance of World Bank to upgrade Health Services at secondary level.

The PHSC was incorporated on October 20, 1995 to establish, expand, improve and administer medical care at secondary level of health care services. The project activities were undertaken by the PHSC and the State Government has ensured that PHSC should function as an autonomous body. For its effective implementation, a Strategic Planning Cell is functioning under the overall supervision of the MD, PHSC-cum-Secretary Health.

Under this project, PHSC had taken over 166 Institutions, which includes District Hospitals, Sub-divisional Hospitals and Community Health Centres. 86 Medical Institutions are situated in rural areas and 80 are in urban areas. Two training institutes viz. State Institute of Health and Family Welfare, Mohali and State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal, Distt. Mukatsar have also been constructed and were included under PHSC institutions.

The World Bank sanctioned the Second State Health Systems Development Project of US$106.10 million (approximately Rs. 422 crores) to upgrade the envisaged areas means clinical, diagnostic and other services provided by community/rural, sub-divisional/taluka/state general and District Hospitals in the State of Punjab.

4.6.4 Deputy Medical Commissioner (DMC)

The DMC looks after the hospital services in District Hospitals, Sub Divisional Hospitals, and Block level Community Health Centres, which are headed by Sr. Medical Offi cer or In-charge of the hospital. In two special hospitals, i.e. MKH Patiala and Civil Hospital Jalandhar, there are Medical Superintendents who directly report to headquarters. Apart from this, Principal, State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal reports to MD-PHSC through Director cum Principal, State Institute of Health & Family Welfare, Mohali and Director, Institute of Mental Health i.e. Government Mental Hospital, Amritsar reports directly to the Managing Director. Recently the SINPS, Dadal has been handed over to Baba Faridkot University.

4.7 Review of functioning of PHSC

To give more autonomy to the Hospitals, PHSC took the steps like (i) Higher fi nancial powers to hospital in-charge, DMCs and CSs were given; (ii) Full powers were given to hospital incharge for commercial exploitation for support services for revenue raising, outsourcing of sanitation services, maintenance services of equipment and hospital building and condemnation of unserviceable articles; (iii) Clear-cut guidelines were given for the procedures to be adopted for retention and utilisation of user charges; (iv) Direct recommendation for recruitment of critical manpower on contractual terms. This is a very encouraging move. Higher accountability is possible only when more autonomy is given to the institutions.

In more than 50 hospitals and 20 districts headquarters, capacity has been developed for computerised record keeping, which covers records of HMIS, Accounts, OPD/IPD, Blood Banks, and Diagnostic Services. For this purpose, the concerned staff has been trained and computer operators have been provided. In-house capabilities have been developed for commercially negotiating with the private partners for outsourcing. Slowly this capacity is being decentralised for effective implementation. Though computer was provided for computerised record keeping in hospitals/health centres at all levels, but in reality these computers were being used only for the registration purposes and these were not being used for record keeping or generation of HMIS. Only at few of the places, the medical records department was being managed by trained persons.

Computerised HMIS systems were in position and regular data of the hospital activity and effi ciency indicators were supposed to be collected and analysed. This was found to be one of the weakest areas in all most all the hospitals/health centres that were evaluated.

There was hardly any well planned and organised Medical Record Department. Most of the centres were not even fully computerised, as the computers were there in the registration areas only. Even in some places untrained clerical staff manned it. The data so generated were not properly analysed to get the right information (like BOR, Average Length of stay, BTR, Death Rates etc.) required for effective management and to take right policy decisions. For an effective and effi cient Hospital Administrator these are very important tools.

Page 28: Pun Jab Study Final

16 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

Hence, efforts should be made to strengthen these aspects by planning and organising a good Medical Record Department for hospitals at every level. Also these Medical Record Departments should be Computerised and manned by properly trained and dedicated staff, which will take care of all the required Management Information System used for Hospital Administration.

Overall percentage of the total Government expenditure on health sector increased from 3.54% in FY 94-95 to 4.27% in FY 03-04 (BE). In absolute term, the allocations have increased from Rs. 2057 million in FY 94-95 to Rs. 7117.20 million in FY 03-04 (BE) against the projected level of Rs. 2956 million. The per capita expenditure on Health at current price has increased from Rs.101 in FY 94-95 to Rs.292 in FY 03-04.

Policy as regard to implementation of user charges was placed right from the very beginning. Reports showed the User Charges collections have increased sharply from Rs. 4 million in FY 96-97 to Rs. 125.37 million in FY 03-04. This increase has been established by introducing better collection method and increase in the services offered. Retained user charges are being utilised on defi ned priorities of essential drugs (45%), patient’s facilities (25%), equipment maintenance (15%) and building maintenance (15%). During the study it was observed that in almost all the hospitals at all level about 40-50% of retained revenue from User Charges were used to procure medicines and 20-30% amount on IFP purpose. But utilisation on building maintenance and equipment maintenance were found to be less utilised than its actual allotment.

In the year 1996 & 1998, the State Government recruited 279 & 785 doctors. But since then no new recruitments were made. As a result there were some shortages of doctors in the regular cadre which is having its adverse effect on the overall functioning.

Efforts were made to ensure that core team of specialists to be made available in every hospital. But in reality the availability of all the basic specialists in respective hospitals could not be ensured. Some times it was observed that a Medical Offi cer of one speciality on transfer was replaced by a Medical Offi cer of another speciality or a general duty medical offi cer, because in Punjab, there is only one cadre for Medical Offi cers.

100% equipment as per the norms was supposed to be in position in all the newly commissioned hospitals along with preventive maintenance of the vital equipment to be undertaken through AMCs. But in reality it was found not to be always in place.

Availability of the drugs was to be monitored on monthly basis as a part of the hospital grading exercise. The State Government has continued providing the supplies of the medicines in hospitals. But in practice this was one of the major lacunas on the part of service providers. Most of the places it was told that the hospitals were not getting any regular supply of Drugs from the State, rather, they were told to arrange the same from funds generated through User Charges.

Support services i.e. ambulance maintenance services, sanitation services and general maintenance services had been contracted out as a time gap arrangement. Waste disposal activities were also contracted out. This initiative was a very good move and it was reported that there were some visible improvements. But later on due to some policy decision the regular Class IV employees

Page 29: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 17

working in the peripheral health centres were deployed and contractual staff was removed. As a result, situation of general maintenance services in the hospitals were not one of the best. Main reasons told were absenteeism and unionism.

Comprehensive referral system was to be established by introducing procedures at the primary level, through Out Reach Camps held in the rural and far-fl ung areas and by providing incentives for the referred cases at the higher level institutions.

Referral manual has been prepared containing guidelines that specify ‘what’ ‘when’ and ‘how’ of referral. Colour coded referral cards have been introduced for sub centre level to district level for referring the patients. Training to doctors and paramedics for implementation of referral system was given. Incentive for referred patients (queue jump, exemption of OP/Admission Charges) have been introduced, referral routes have been established and displayed in all the hospitals. Special tie-up has been made at tertiary level facilities for creation of special window for the referred patients. But in practice none of these measures could be observed in exact desired manner. This is a very important aspect for an effective and holistic Health Care delivery system and hence all efforts should be made to further strength it and effectively implement it.

A set of core indicators is being used to grade all the 154 hospitals. External lab quality assurance programme has been introduced. This was found to be a very useful and an effective mechanism for better and quality service output.

Overall, as per the objectives of the PHSC and its policy implementations it was found to be quite cost effective with management effi cient system. All the aspects are properly implemented. Many of these aspects are already mentioned above.

For ensuring better availability of drugs and other consumables in hospitals/health centres at every level the Model of Tamil Nadu Medical Corporation may be followed. As this model is followed by many states with some modifi cation as per their needs.

Referral System needs to made more effective and extreme care needs to be taken to make it two way system and not one way, which was found to be followed in present situation. This was found to be more of Transfer System of patient than of Referral System. In this process the patients will tend to lose their confi dence on the lower centres and as a result these centres will become under utilised. The examples for successful two way Referral Systems which are being followed in India are CGHS, ESIC, Railways, Army, etc. Further, for developing an effective and effi cient system the National Health Scheme (NHS) followed at United Kingdom (UK) may be studied for its implementation.

Efforts should be made to ensure the availability of all the services required for diagnostic and therapeutic processes by applying the modern scientifi c management techniques.

There should be atleast two separate cadres for doctors. One for General Duty and other for the Specialists as it is followed in Central Health Scheme (CHS), ESIC, Railways, Army, etc.

However, the fi gures for the delivery services were not found very encouraging, during the last 5 years and in almost all the districts, these fi gures fl uctuated on either side. Therefore, it is not only very diffi cult to conclude anything from this data, but it was found very much disturbing, that in some places the numbers have actually come down. One of the reasons may be irregular availability of the gynaecologist and its associated basic facilities in these hospitals.

5.3.29 Central sterile supply department

Only six CHCs were having CSSD under supervision of trained staff/senior nursing offi cer, nine CHCs were having all required equipments and autoclaves. Quality control measures were found to be followed at all six CHCs having CSSD.

5.3.30 Laundry services

Among eleven CHCs under study, six were having in-house laundry services, while remaining fi ve had outsourced it. At all CHCs, laundry was of conventional (dhobi) type. Quality of wash was found good at four CHCs only, while in rest of the CHCs, it was found to be average. Quality of linen was good at six CHCs and average in the remaining fi ve CHCs.

5.3.31 Kitchen facility

Kitchen facility was not available at any of the CHCs assessed.

5.3.32 Utilisation of Patient care services

At all the CHC hospitals, analysis of last 5 year data, revealed that the number of patients utilising various medical care services, including diagnostics and treatment, from in-patient and outdoor had came down in fi rst 2-3 years. But after that, it has steadily increased during the recent years, though at a slower rate.

However, the fi gures for service delivery were not found very encouraging. For the last 5 years, the fi gures had fl uctuated on either side in almost all the districts. Therefore, not only it is very diffi cult to conclude anything, but is very much disturbing, that in some places the numbers have even come down. One of the reasons may be irregular availability of a gynaecologist and its associated basic facilities in these hospitals.

5.3.33 Utilisation of user charges

Year-wise expenditure of the user charges made under the following major heads i.e. medicines, improvement of the in-patient’s facilities (IPF), maintenance of buildings and equipments. The expenditure made under the head medicines was 40% to 50% in most of the community health centre (CHC) except the CHC at Badal, Fatehgarh Churian and Manawala.

Regarding IFP, most of the CHC spent 20% to 30% of the user charges over the years except at Longowal. (See Fig 26 and 27)

The utilisation of User charges in maintenance of buildings at the CHCs under study were observed to be varying very widely in the CHCs, over the years as shown in the graph.

10% to 15% of user charges were found to be used for equipment maintenance in all the CHCs over the years except for Badal, Kartarpur and Mahilpur where it was even less then 5% except in few years. (See Fig 28 and 29)

6.0 Views of the Benefi ciaries on

Quality of Services

6.1 In-patient Department

A total of 224 respondents were interviewed from various health institutions like CHCs, Sub-divisional hospitals, District hospitals and Special Hospitals of Punjab Health Systems Corporation.

6.1.1 Socio-economic profi le of respondents

• Out of 224 respondents, the services of Punjab Health Systems Corporation were utilised more by females (56.3%) as compared to males (43.8%). When observed separately at the in-patient department of special hospitals, more female patients (90.9%) were found admitted as compared to the males (9.1%). This may be because these hospitals were mainly for women and children. Similarly at Sub-divisional hospitals, more female patients (55.9%) were found admitted as compared to the male patients (44.1%).

• At District hospitals the service utilisation was found to be 55.2% by females as compared to 44.8% by males. But at CHCs, the service utilisation by males was found to be more (65.5%) as compared to the females (34.5%). Utilisation of services by less than 15 years age group was very little (1.3%).

• Half of the respondents (50%) were in the age group of 15-30 years, while 20.1% respondents were in 31-45 years age group. Remaining respondents were above 46 years of age.

6.1.2 Admission procedure

• 51.3% of the respondents were found to be admitted through emergency, while 48.2% of the admissions were through regular OPD. This indicates that, nearly half of the respondents came for utilisation of PHSC services only in the case of emergency. This might be because they do not have access to other health facilities due to economic reasons and are left with no other alternative except to seek emergency care in these facilities.

• When respondents were asked to rate their experience about the admission procedure at these institutions, 77.7% respondents rated it as being poor while another 12.1% stated that the procedure was average. When this poor rating was assessed specifi cally at different health institutions, it was revealed that 86.2% respondents from CHCs; 80.9% from Sub-divisional hospitals and 77.3% from Special Hospitals had rated the admission procedure as poor. At District hospitals percentage rating was slightly less than the other health institutions (73.3%). This is indicative of the fact that the majority of respondents were not satisfi ed with the admission procedure. (Refer Table 5)

7.1 Introduction

Last two decades have witnessed major shift in the health system and concerns have been expressed regarding health issues, critical to women, children and people in the rural and tribal areas. The health sector being no exception, has very heavily relied upon and included in-built components like systematic training. Training has been used as a planned strategy towards development of human resource for the achievement of total health in the country. The training system helps in continuing the review of current needs of state and national programmes and policies to match with the training personnel at all levels in the health care system. In addition to strengthening the functional performance of human resources, it also caters to aspects like cost containment, quality of care and creation of new categories of health personnel.

However, several lacunae have been identifi ed in the existing training programmes such as:i. Training often does not bear directly on an employee’s offi cial duties.ii. Duplication of training programmes and the same participants receiving training frequently.iii. Lack of written course evaluations with an objective to provide feedback after training while

one has resumed one’s job.

Realising these gaps in the existing health care delivery system it was felt that training institutes would also be evaluated along with the other health service facilities in the state of Punjab during conduction of the study.

Training institutes evaluated were:1. State Institute of Health and Family Welfare, Mohali. 2. State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal (in the district of Muktsar).3. Mental Hospital, Amritsar.

7.2 State Institute of Health and Family Welfare (SIHFW),

Mohali

The State Institute of Health and Family Welfare (Kharar) was established under a WB aided project in 1992 after upgrading the Health and Family Welfare Training Centre, Kharar. Now, State Institute of Health and Family Welfare, Phase-VI, Mohali, Punjab, has been established under IPP VII (Year 1997-1999), under World Bank aided project as an apex institute to cater to the training needs of the northern states like Punjab, U.P, Chandigarh, J&K and Haryana. The Institute has been declared as Collaborative Training Institute (CTI, Mohali) with NIHFW, New Delhi being the nodal agency. The institute from Kharar has been shifted to a new campus at Mohali and is made operational with effect from 1st April, 2004 as State Institute of Health and Family Welfare, Phase-VI, Mohali.

This survey was conducted in SIHFW, Mohali. Questions were asked from trainers, considering them as an important stakeholders in this survey. A total of 7 respondents were interviewed. The trainers were mainly medical offi cers and the nursing tutors, having an average experience of 15-20 years of service. The job responsibilities given to them were teaching, planning for ongoing trainings and different administrative responsibilities.

Page 98: Pun Jab Study Final

86 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

The activities mainly carried out by them were training, administrative, planning, session teaching and sometimes data collection for different research projects.

After the inception of PHSC, there have been special training programmes sponsored to nominate specialists like surgeons, physicians etc. to improve the quality of different training programmes. One of the respondents was of the view that there is not much change; everything is as it is as it was before. Another respondent indicated that there is an improvement in the quality of work, but she could not specifi cally point out the type of quality being referred to. After the inception of PHSC, more emphasis is given to Behaviour Change Communication and on counseling which was not the case earlier.

All the respondents have done many training programmes over the years like on disaster management, capacity building, RCH, counseling skills, integrated course for NRHM, adolescent and reproductive health, fi rst aid course, workshop on community participation etc. It indicates that trainers are given relevant training, which is of importance to keep them updated with the new emerging trends. They can apply this while conducting different training sessions.

Almost all the respondents were positive about the need of more training in the areas like leadership, management.

Skills of Trainers: Faculty of training institute were asked basic information regarding organisation of trainings.• When asked about the concept of systems approach to training, all the seven respondents

could not speak about it. Though few responded that it should be based on needs assessment followed by a systematic approach to training.

• The response on pre-requisites for preparation of training calendar, the respondents most of them reported as training load, availability of resources (man, money and material) and availability of venue.

• According to the respondents the training methods used for skill development are hands on training, demonstrations, powerpoint presentations, group discussion and role-play.

The above analysis shows that the trainers have fairly good knowledge about the organisation of training programmes.

Common complaints of trainees attending training programmes:

When asked about the nature of complaints by the trainees who attended the training programmes, some of the common complaints were:

Shortage of faculty members, duration of the lectures being very long, quality of food is not very good, and poor hostel facilities.

The quality of training programmes is usually assessed by the trainers from pre and post evaluation, participant’s evaluation report and through informal communication with the participants.

Page 99: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 87

The procedure for the preparation of training report includes compiling data and taking feedback from the participants.

The impact evaluation is not done in the institute, however, according to one of respondent, reaction feedback (immediate) from the participants is taken on completion of training programme..

Some programmes which are proposed to be started shortly are on NRHM, BCC, HISM, Leadership and Disaster Management.

Changes required in the existing training structures: Opinion of the respondents was taken to identify the changes required in the existing training structure for the staff in their district.

• Guidelines for organising training programmes should be more clear and freely available• More class rooms are required• Training calendar should be spread uniformly throughout the year• There should be more training programmes for the nursing personnel

7.3 State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences,

Badal (in the district of Muktsar)

The State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences was established in the year 2001 at Badal in the district of Muktsar. The main objective of this training institute was to have a good quality training institute available in the rural area of Punjab which can teach and train the candidates from the rural community. It was till recently under the Punjab Health Systems Corporation and has now been transferred to Baba Faridkot University.

7.3.1 Major courses being offered

1. BSc. (Nursing)- a four year full time course with a capacity of 50 admissions (recently started)2. General Nursing & Midwifery course- Three and a half years with a capacity of 50 admissions3. Diploma in Radiography- a two year course with a capacity of 10 admissions4. Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology- a two year course with a capacity of 20 admissions.

7.3.2 Practical training of students

The practical training of a student is done in a number of hospitals on a rotational basis. The hospitals are:a. Civil hospital Badal- not very suitable as daily attendance is very lowb. Civil hospital Bhatinda- good daily attendancec. Women and Children Hospital Bhatinda- around 70-80, attendanced. Civil hospital Malout- daily attendance of around 50e. Mata Kaushalya hospital Patiala- around 200 daily attendancef. Institute of Mental Health, Amritsarg. Rajindra Hospital and Medical college Patiala

88 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

h. Baba Faridkot (GGS Medical college) for Radiographyi. Sub Centre Singhewala under PHC Lumbi for Community Health Nursing

7.3.3 Fees structure

The fee structure is as follows:For BSc Nursing the annual fees is Rs. 43,500/-For GNM course the annual fees I Rs. 41,500/-For DMRT and DMLT courses, the annual fees is Rs. 17,000/-

7.3.4 Salient features

1. The intake in the BSc (Nursing) and GNM courses is very good and generally the fi fty seats allocated are fi lled up with very few drop outs during the academic year.

2. The Diploma in Radiography has generally 50-60% occupancy. This year there are only two students enrolled against 10 seats.

3. The Diploma in Medical Lab Technology does not attract enough number of students- in this batch there is only one student against 20 seats.

4. There is shortage of faculty. 10 out of the required 18 nursing tutor posts are fi lled up. Further there are only 2 MSc. qualifi ed nurses (including the Principal) for training the BSc. Nursing students.

5. As there is no hospital within the premises and for all practical purposes the civil hospital Badal has very few patients, it is diffi cult for the students to go for training to Bhatinda and other places. The students have to commute to and fro to Bhatinda as the hostel facilities are not there. This suggests that there is a need of a hostel for the nursing students which will help in cutting down on the commuting time and promote better learning.

6. The eligibility criteria for DMLT course needs to be re-looked at. Punjab technical University is admitting Arts students too.

7. There is lot of dissatisfaction amongst the staff as regards the pay scales. Further as many of the tutors are on contract, they are not able to deliver their best.

8. There is a need for atleast one staff bus for the employees and one more bus for the students as the public transport system is not functioning well.

9. There is also requirement for a full time student counsellor and one health offi cer.10. Upgradation of the library with more books, journal and computers with internet connectivity

is a must.11. Modern AV aids are required- especially LCD projector12. Funds for repair and maintenance of the hostel are needed as many repairs and renovations

are pending13. The institute was more comfortable under the PHSC as regards funds and sanctions for different

tasks. It is facing more problems after being transferred to the Baba Faridkot University.

7.4 Mental Hospital, Amritsar

This hospital is catering to services of psychiatric patients from Punjab and other states. All the available staff has the expertise in psychiatric and related areas. Training programme of nurses in care of psychiatric patients is also being organised by the hospital. There is a capacity of 350 students for the training programme with a fee structure of Rs. 1500 per student for 1 month training. This is one of the sources of income for the hospital. By virtue of this training programme being organised for the nursing categories, the institute may be considered as one of the potential training institutes. However, before considering that, the following points may be taken into account.

• The faculty of the institute is tuned to the psychiatric care services and due to shortage of them; it would be very diffi cult for them to carry out other training activities.

• The institute does not have any professional trainer or faculty who has been trained in Training Technology. Furthermore, their experiences were not matched with the primary health care service delivery.

• Hence, in the context of declaring a training institute for primary health care service delivery, Institute will have to depend totally on external resource persons.

• In lieu of the above context, a major part of the training budget might be utilised in the payment of honorarium to the guest faculty. In addition to this, training programmes would likely be earning source for the institute and it will enhance the training budget more.

• The institute does not have established hostel with mess facilities. Dharamshala for the attendants of in-patients is being used as hostel for the trainee, nurses and kitchen for the patients was being used for the food for them on adhoc basis.

• As the ongoing in-service training was limited to the psychiatric ward only, institute has not developed any Field Practice Demonstration Area (FPDA), which is essential for Primary Health Care Skill training.

• On the other side, the Director of the institute, a retired Principal from Medical College, has vast experience and good networking with the health system in Punjab. Furthermore, all the teaching aids space for the training programme is available in the institute.

A summarised SWOT analysis is being projected below:

For listening to the community voice, focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted to take care of qualitative dimensions. Ten (10) FGDs among the females were undertaken in nearby villages of community health centres and 10 FGDs among the males were conducted in nearby villages of sub divisional hospitals. Let us read and understand their issues.

8.1 Observations among Male Groups

8.1.1 Accessibility to health care facility:

a) Health care facility availed by villagers

• Local people are interested in availing the government facilities. However due to various reasons most of them are not utilising these facilities.

• People of low socio-economic group are utilising the government facilities due to their very little paying capacities. These are the people who primarily try to avail the services. The people belonging to lower–middle group and above, generally utilise private facilities as per their paying capacities.

• Few Sub-divisional hospital’s /CHCs attract large number of patients, even from the far off places, only because of the good administration and services offered by the hospital in-charge.

b) Reasons for non-utilisation of Government health facilities

Varied reasons emerged following the discussions in different districts. Following are the few common reasons from all the districts:

• If the distance of the health facility is more, then local people tend to utilise private facility only.

“Anay janay may he to sara kharcha ho jana hai, Time waste hoga who alag. Isliye hum to pas ke doctor ke pas he chaley jatey hain”.

• People are primarily unhappy with the fact that they have to spend the money for availing health services.

“Private mein jayen ya serkari mein, kharcha to dono mein he karna hai, Private vale doctor per to hum jor bhi dal sakte hain”.

8.0 Community Voice

Page 104: Pun Jab Study Final

92 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

“Sui se le kar glucose, davaiyan, injection sab bahar se he khareedna padta hai”.

• In most of the emergency departments, 24 hour services are not available due to non-availability of staff. Therefore people prefer to go to the private hospitals/nursing homes only.

“aise jaedah hai jadon police case hove, emergency which to koi sahuliat nahin hai”.

• Availability of the doctor in the hospital/CHC is not sure.

“Asain doron jaidai doctor ravey na ravey, sanu to kuch pata nahin,”.

(Once we reach most of the time doctor is on leave or gone for some meeting or other commitment, our whole day is gone and even the money).

• Majority mentioned that the government doctors prefer to see the patients in their private settings, charging heavy consultation fees. Besides specifi c investigations, like ultrasound etc. are required to be done from outside private centres.

c) Distance from home and connectivity from the road

• Majority pointed out that distance is an important factor, but if all the facilities are available with good doctors, people would prefer to utilise those health facilities, e.g. Dasua Sub-Divisional Hospital is known to be good so far as deliveries are concerned. People from far off places utilise the services available there.

• There are places where the hospitals/health centres are near the villages or in the residential area, but people still do not utilise the services and go to private hospitals/nursing homes which are far away.

• Many of the groups commented - “as the same doctors give good treatment in private nursing homes, so we go there only”.

d) Transport facilities and cost of travel

• Sub-divisional hospitals are generally situated near the main roads, which are well connected with the local transport as well. Travel cost depends on the economic status of the family and for the poor patients it is a cause of concern.

‘Panchayat aur local loki madad kar den dey , chanda ekthda ker key de den de”.

(Villagers help their native people by contributing money for the medical expenses etc.)

e) Services:

• The services in the hospital are on payment basis. One group said that they need to buy everything needed during hospitalisation or otherwise. As outpatient also, majority of them have to purchase the medicines from outside.

Page 105: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 93

“We can only save the visiting fees of the doctor otherwise there is no difference in going to either Government or Pvt. Facilities.

8.1.2 Availability of the facilities in the hospital

a) Waiting time in OPD

• Majority commented that waiting time in OPD depends on the number of the patients. If the doctor is available and fewer patients are there. It takes 20-25 minutes.

• Whereas if the number of the patients is more, than it may take even 2-3 hours. As far as timings of the OPD are concerned, all of them feel it is convenient for them.

b) Availability of the doctors

• Different opinions emerged. Most of them agreed that availability of the staff is there, but there is a scarcity of the staff.

• The participants also put forth that the availability of the doctors /staff etc. depends on the administrator of that place.

“Bade doctor sakht jadon honge sab changa chalta hey”.

c) Availability of the medicines

• All emphasised on the non-availability of the medicines. Whatever the patient needs while hospitalisation or in OPD, they are asked to buy. Very few people mentioned that for economically weaker section some medicines are given from the hospital.

“sarkari aspatalan bich to asan garib loki e jaedah hai, davaiyan kuch bhi nahi dende”

‘Why should we go to the Government hospitals, as only visiting the doctor is not going to help, we need to buy the medicines also “Local private doctors give the medicines also within the Fees”.

d) Availability of the laboratory and radiological services

• All were unhappy with the functioning of the laboratory and radiological services.

• It was pointed out that in case of emergency, there are great diffi culties in availing any of these facilities. They were of the opinion that at few of the places, machines/equipment are either not in working condition or the technician is not available.

“If it is only the availability, ‘yes’, it is available but if we talk about the functioning aspect, it is questionable”.

Page 106: Pun Jab Study Final

94 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

“Whole day goes off only for one investigation to be done”. Again they were required to collect the report from the lab and then visit the doctor.

8.1.3 Behaviour of health care providers towards patients

• Most expressed happiness with the doctors’ behaviour.

• Few refl ected that doctor’s behaviour is more prompt and appropriate when they visit the same doctors in their clinics.

• It emerged that the staff does not ask for any money for any reason.

• They are at times cooperative.

8.1.4 Outreach services offered by Government facility

• Most pointed out that though ANMs exists in the area, but they are not conducting group meetings. Home visits were also very less.

• ANC is not a regular agenda. Women themselves go to the hospital to get registered.

• Few of the respondents said that ANM is active and take due care of the pregnant women.

• Visits of the ANM/ASHA are actually restricted to specifi c areas.

• These workers are more centred to areas near their residence. The far off villages are not taken care off. As such there is no coverage for family planning services.

• No medicines have been distributed by the ANM since 4-5 years.

• Iron and folic acid tablets are also not available with them. Only hospitals provide these medicines for 3-5 days to each pregnant women.

8.1.5 Coverage

• Remote areas are not being served. People are forced to utilise private services, sometimes with the same government doctor of the hospital in their private clinics.

• Most emphasised that health facilities are not fully equipped. They need to go to the other specialised hospitals/referrals to avail some of the facilities.

8.1.6 Satisfaction with the services provided by the Government

health facility

• Responses were varied among different groups. In the Sub-divisional hospital areas, which are running fi ne due to good administration, people are somewhat satisfi ed with it. Whereas those, where there is bad administration like no doctors on duty or shortage of doctors, people are not at all happy with them.

Page 107: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 95

• They feel that government has invested so much in the infrastructure for the betterment of the general public, but the ultimate purpose has not been achieved.

8.2 Observations among the Female Groups

8.2.1 Accessibility to health care facility

a) Health care facility availed by villagers

• Women primarily want to avail the government facilities. This is either due to their positive experiences in the past or those of the friends/relatives.

• Most of the women said that for delivery they primarily feel safe in going to the government hospital but due to various reasons most of them actually are not utilising these facilities. Women from the villages need to travel long distances, as CHCs are not situated in the villages but near the main roads.

• Various groups with single voice stated that delivery occurs most of time during odd hours or in emergency, and for that, one could not depend on the present health system. They added that doctors are not available and for the reasons not known to them, they refer the patient to either private hospital or to the District Hospital.

“Wahan hota hi kon hay”.‘asan to aes lai privaton e jainda hega”

• For this reason they go to either private or to the District Hospital. Few of the women also added that the government doctors, who are practicing privately also provide good treatment in their nursing homes, and so it is better to go to them.

• Parishad CHCs are more popular in some of the areas as compared to the PHSC’s CHCs.

b) Reasons for non-utilisation of Government health facilities

• Most of the rural women visit the CHCs for their reproductive health problems.

• Most of the places gynaecologists are not available.

• If the distance of the health facility is more, the local people utilise private facility only. “For delivery we cannot take any chances” was the version of most of the respondents.

• People were found unhappy because they have to spend the money for availing health services. They were of the opinion that at least delivery facility should be provided by the Government free of cost.

“Madam suin se ley kar glucose, davaina, injection sab bahar se he khareedna padta hai”. “Serkari aspatal witch to sab kokh hi milna chaida hay”

Page 108: Pun Jab Study Final

96 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

• At night time nobody can think of going to the CHC for any emergency as hardly anybody would be available there. People prefer to go the private hospitals /nursing homes only. It was commented that in general, these government health service providers provide no emergency facilities.

• Availability of the doctor in the hospital/CHC is not very sure.

• Laboratory testing, ultrasound etc. are required to be done from private centres. At many places, women groups stated that these centres are also in someway or other related to the government hospital doctors. Most commented that the government doctors prefer to see the patient in their private settings charging consultation fees..

c) Distance from home and connectivity from the road

• Although distance is an important factor, but if good doctors are available at health facilities, people will most likely utilise these health facilities.

• Most of the rural women visit Parishad CHC, as it provides the services. The nearby CHCs under PHSCs with 6 doctors are not being visited.

• At places, where the CHC are nearby the villages or even in the residential area, people still do not utilise the services and rather go to private hospitals/nursing homes which are situated at distance. “The same doctors give good treatment in private nursing homes, so we go there only’.

d) Transport facilities and cost of travel

• CHCs are found to be mainly situated near the main roads but away from many villages. These roads are however, well connected with the local transport also. Still the paying capacity for the cost of travel depends on the economic status of the family, which is a matter of concern for the poor patients.

• Those who cannot afford to bear these costs prefer to call for TBAs for conducting the delivery, irrespective of the fact whether she is trained or untrained.

e) Services

• It was stated that they have to purchase everything needed during hospitalisation or otherwise. Even as outpatients, majority of the medicines have to be purchased from outside.

8.2.2 Availability of the facilities in the hospital

a) Waiting time at OPD

• Waiting time in OPD depends on the number of the patients. If doctor is available and few patients are there it only takes 20-25 minutes. Whereas if the number of the patients is more, than it may take even 5-6 hours. As far as timings of the OPD are concerned, all of them felt it is convenient for them.

Page 109: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 97

• Few opined that if a gynaecologist is there, women will feel comfortable in going to them and would not even mind the waiting time. Very few deliveries are being conducted at the CHCs.

b) Availability of the doctors

• Different members were having different opinions on this issue. Though most of them agreed that availability of the doctors is there but there are also some places where there is scarcity of the staff. Few of the women added that if doctor is from the same area, there are chances that they will be available.

c) Availability of the medicines

• Almost all mentioned about the non-availability of the medicines. Whatever the patient needed whether as in-patients or as out-patients, they are being asked to buy almost everything. Even for the delivery, everything is to be purchased. No medicines are being provided from the hospitals. Very few people mentioned that for economically weaker sections, some medicines are given from the hospital.

c) Availability of the laboratory and radiological investigation

• All were not very happy with the functioning of the laboratory and radiological investigations. The respondents pointed out the fact that in emergency, it becomes a great problem in availing any of these facilities. Few respondents opined that it is diffi cult for a pregnant woman to collect the report from the lab and then visit the doctor.

• It was revealed that at few of the places, machines/equipments are either not in working condition or else the technician is not available.

“If it is only the availability ‘Yes’, it is available but if we talk about the functioning aspect, it is questionable”.

“Whole day goes off only for one test to be done”

8.2.3 Behaviour of health care providers towards patients

• In general, members experienced happiness with the general doctors. But few commented that gynaecologists are available only sometimes.

• It was refl ected that the doctors’ behaviour is more prompt and appropriate when they go to visit the same doctors in their private clinics as compared to government facility.

• Behaviour of the nursing staff was reported to be good. It was also mentioned that the staff did not ask for any money for any reason and that they are at times cooperative.

Page 110: Pun Jab Study Final

98 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

8.2.4 Outreach services offered by Government facility

• Though ANM is available but home visits are very less.

• No health related discussion takes place ever.

“ab to sub jante hai kya achha hai kya kharab”

• All were happy about the pulse polio. However, ANC is not a regular agenda. Women generally go by themselves to the hospital to get registered.

10.1 Facility Survey

Based on the analysis of quantitative and qualitative data, the following

observations are drawn forth:

10.1.1 Infrastructure

a) Almost all the hospitals under study were easily accessible from the Bus Stop and nearest Railway Station and easily approachable by a motorable road.

b) The building and general infrastructure for all the health care facilities were found to be reasonably well constructed. But as most of them are newly constructed, this infrastructure needs proper maintenance so that its life can be prolonged.

c) Most of the hospitals were not found to be equipped with the required equipments. In some hospitals, equipment was there but there was mismatch as some were found to be either not in use and some were reported to be out of order.

d) The surrounding of these health care facilities was not found in good condition. Almost every health facility required paying serious attention towards this aspect.

e) The cleanliness of the hospital premises was not up to the mark.

10.1.2 Human resources

a) Almost all the hospitals under study have vacant posts including post of Doctors and Support Staff.

b) The doctors posted in these hospitals are from one single cadre. There is no separate cadre for GDMO and Specialists. As a result, particularly in CHCs and Sub Divisional Hospitals, the Specialists were also doing night duties/emergency duties and hence were not available for regular OPDs.

c) Doctors including specialists in the hospitals under study were supposed to perform other duties like, the VIP duties, attend court cases and remain involved in various public health activities and health fairs. If regular GDMO would have been available, these duties could well be undertaken by GDMOs.

d) There is an acute shortage of Radiologist, Anaesthetists, Paediatrician and Gynaecologist in almost all the hospitals, particularly in Sub Divisional Hospitals and CHCs.

e) There is also an acute shortage of the support staff, particularly the Technical staff in Sub Divisional Hospitals and CHCs.

f) Frequent transfers of the doctors has also been refl ected as a cause of concern and problems in these hospitals. For example, in case where a doctor of one speciality is transferred, he is most likely to be replaced by doctor of another speciality. This disrupts the services of hospital for that particular speciality and patients suffer on this account.

institutions, � Availability of safe drinking water, � Availability of screen in the examination room.

h) Behaviour of staff members in the OPDs was not rated to be satisfactory by majority of the respondents.

i) A good percentage of respondents stated that availability of doctors, nurses and staff in the OPDs is good, except at CHCs.

Rather this was reported to be as one of the major issues underlying low utilisation of health services provided by PHSC.

j) The facilities like laboratory and radiological investigations were not rated to be satisfactory by majority of the respondents as most of the time these facilities are not available. Because of this, patients are forced to go to private facilities to get the required investigations done.

k) Overall experience of respondents at OPDs of the various health institutions under study was not found to be very satisfactory. This observation holds true in particular for CHCs and District hospitals and needs further attention.

l) A good percentage of respondents felt that the quality of treatment in the hospitals needs to be improved, mainly in the CHCs, as these are in the rural areas and mostly the community was not having any other alternative option for health care.

a) General administration of the hospital needs rectifi cation. This includes cleanliness, recruitment of the staff, doctors with specialties, drinking water arrangement, toilets on all the fl oors & wards, electricity (lightening arrangement), generator, water tank, timely repair of accessories and machines etc.

b) All necessary medicines should be provided by the hospital. If not possible, at least the BPL families should get this facility. For the other patients subsidised medicines can also be a good option.

c) At least in the emergency situation hospital should provide every facility like diagnostic services or medicines.

d) Provision for laboratory and ultrasound should also be in perfect situation.e) Surgeons can be arranged for emergencies on call.f) Fee for the diagnostic tests should also be subsidised.g) There is a need to organise community campaigns such as camps, health melas, health

education etc. especially in far-fl ung areas.h) Local community participation should be enhanced for utilisation of health services.i) For strengthening emergency services, ambulances need to be arranged at very minimum rates.j) Doctor on emergency duty should be available for 24 hours a day.k) The private practice of the Government doctors should be stopped.l) Every village should have a trained dai and a lady doctor.m) It was desired that at least delivery facility for pregnant women should be provided by the

government free of cost.n) If all the facilities with the good doctors were available people would prefer to utilise those

health facilitieso) It was observed in the discussion that the parishad CHCs were more popular in the areas as

compared to the PHSCs/CHCs.

10.4 Views of other Stakeholders

The view of the other stakeholders is as given below:i) More infrastructure facilities and equipments need to be provided.ii) Salaries of doctors are not very lucrative as a result they go for private practice.iii) More contractual employees are required – especially class IV and lab technicians.iv) Public Private Partnership model needs to be introduced.v) Telemedicine should be promoted.vi) Performance linked appraisal should be adopted.vii) Number and quality of drugs need to be increased and improved for increasing acceptance

Based on above quantitative, qualitative and triangulation of data, the following

recommendations are proposed:

11.1 Human Resource

a) An assessment may be done for the State of Punjab to fi nd out the staff position for all categories of health workers including doctors.

b) An exercise to fi nd out the strength of the sanctioned and vacant posts needs to be undertaken.

c) Urgent efforts may be made to fi ll up the vacant positions.d) Two separate cadres for the doctors i.e. one for GDMOs and one for specialists instead of

having only one single cadre of Medical Offi cers should be created.e) Category wise GIS mapping of all types of human resources including Medical offi cers and

various Specialists for all the Health Institutions may be done for the entire state. By this exercise, a clear picture will emerge regarding the exact availability against the requirement of each category of health personnel.

f) It is suggested that PHSC may take policy decisions whereby all the doctors are paid a basic minimum salary so as to motivate them to work at government health facilities.

g) This exercise will help in planning and recruitment of the required specialists and GDMOs.h) Moreover based on the norms of IPHS, posts for GDMOs and other essential categories of

specialists may be created and fi lled up. i) Availability of basic specialists in the respective health centres will surely build up the

confi dence among the community and hence result in increased utilisation of services. j) Separate administrative cadre may be developed for the administrative posts of district,

sub-division and CHCs so that a full time and well qualifi ed/trained doctor can be assigned to these jobs. A specialist may not be given this responsibility by virtue of his/her seniority as this effects his clinical practice in the hospital.

k) As reported, the salaries of the doctors under PHSC were not at par with the private sector and this could be one of the reasons for high attrition rate among the doctors.

l) Performance based incentives may be considered not only for retaining the existing specialists, but also State may explore the possibility of involvement of private practitioners under public private partnership as per market rate. This exercise can be done under human resource innovation which is one of the components in NRHM. A similar performance assessment system was already in practice i.e. ‘Bench Marking’. Also, by this method, it may be easier to retain the specialist category of radiology, anaesthesia, paediatric, gynaecology etc.

11.0 Conclusion and Recommen-

Page 140: Pun Jab Study Final

128 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

11.2 Availability of Drugs

a) At all the health care institutions, the benefi ciaries reported to have expectations that the medicines, particularly the vital ones, should be provided by the health centre. Moreover, it becomes a moral obligation for the authorities to provide at least the vital and essential medicines.

b) Hence, the availability of these medicines specially the vital and essential ones should be necessary in all health facilities..

c) Therefore it is recommended that every health centre should prepare the list of medicines (drug formulary) to be used at that centre and the same to be sent to their concerned authorities for procurement/indent.

d) At the State level, these lists of drugs, coming from various types of health facilities through their respective district headquarters to be compiled and a common list to be prepared.

e) By applying scientifi c Inventory Control Techniques of ABC and VED analysis, they should fi nd out the list of all the vital and essential drugs and the costlier one (which shall not be more than 20% of the total procured drugs).

f) These medicines should be procured through state level and distributed to the districts for onwards supply.

g) Alternatively the state may fi x up the rate contract of each item after following the laid down procurement procedures for drug items and supply this information with the required authority letter to the respective districts so that they can directly procure these medicines from the suppliers at the rate fi xed by the state.

h) In this way, the state headquarters need not to worry about their budget and every district health centre and below will be procuring these medicines by using funds of Rogi Kalyan Samitis or user charges.

i) By this partial de-centralised procurement, the availability of the medicines will defi nitely improve and quality of the medicines can also be ensured.

j) Every hospital/health centre should have proper antibiotic policy and standard treatment guidelines.

k) There should be regular practice of prescription audit.

11.3 Community Education and Community Rights

Regarding Health Facilities

a) Every hospital/health centre should clearly display the citizen charter and the name, designation and telephone numbers of the concerned offi cers to whom they can approach at the time of any dispute or complaint.

b) The benefi ciaries should also be informed about the routine procedures they are expected to follow in that health centre and their rights.

11.4 Cleanliness

a) Special efforts should be taken to maintain the cleanliness of the hospital. CHCs should focus more on this so that it is at par with basic required standards.

Page 141: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 129

b) The general up keep of surroundings of the hospital should also be maintained properly. For this reason, special efforts should be taken for regular repair, maintenance and landscaping.

c) The toilets should be kept clean and the drainage system in particular to be fl ushed routinely at regular intervals. Drainage system should be regularly cleaned and monitored.

d) For the support staff a training capsule having role and responsibilities\ including basics of hygiene and sanitation, preventive and promotive health care, motivation, attitudinal changes, services available in the health facility may be developed and continuing exercise should be regularly undertaken.

e) For house keeping and sanitation, the services may be out sourced and may be given to the professional organisation like sulabh etc.

f) A separate toilet for the females should be there in the OPDs of every hospital/health centre.

11.5 Diagnostic Facilities

a) Efforts should be made to ensure that all the required reagents and equipments in the laboratories are available.

b) For those special investigations, which are not carried out in the respective centres, the authorities should tie up with the private laboratories at pre-negotiated fi xed rates.

c) With these arrangements, the benefi ciaries can be referred to these laboratories and they will not end up paying a higher price.

d) Even for the poor patients, respective health centre may pay their charges from the funds available from user charges/Rogi Kalyan Samitis.

11.6 Medical Record Department

a) For any good administration, the correct and timely information is very important. This information can only be made available, if the respective data is generated in outpatient and In-door facilities. Hence, to have proper information, every hospital needs to have a well planned and organised medical record department. The information in medical records, helps hospital administrator to monitor the utilisation pattern of their respective hospital and to help them to take required necessary decision for improvement. The following observations are made in this regard:

• All the case sheets and medical records pertaining to patient care is required to be maintained following some standard indexing system so that in future, retrieval becomes easy.

• Every hospital should come out with the routine statistical bulletin, which should include some of the important Hospital Utilisation Indices like bed occupancy rate, average length of stay, bed turnover interval, gross and net death rate etc.

11.7 Emergency Services

a) Due to paucity of doctors and other support staff in various hospitals, the emergency services are not functioning properly. This creates a problem for the community

Page 142: Pun Jab Study Final

130 Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab

(especially for the poor population) who are forced to go to the private sector for availing emergency services.

b) This calls for taking into account, that the emergency services are taken very seriously and action needs to be taken immediately.

c) To start with, doctors may be posted in these hospitals, particularly at sub divisional hospital and CHC, exclusively to run emergency services.

11.8 Maternity Services

a) Emergency obstetric services: Non-availability of satisfactory obstetric services is another major drawback in the system. The community is compelled to seek care from the private sector due to the non availability of emergency obstetric services in the public sector.

b) Main reasons found out for this was non-availability of gynaecology and obstetrics specialists. c) Hence efforts should be made to ensure that every hospital upto CHC level has atleast one

gynaecologist with all required facilities.d) A model of public private partnership like the one followed in Gujarat (Chiranjeevi scheme)

may be looked into for strengthening the maternity services.

11.9 Other Aspects

a) Admission procedures need improvement with more focus on CHC and sub divisional hospitals. Rules and regulations of health institutions should be properly informed to the patients.

b) Cleanliness of linen in Sub-Divisional Hospitals and District Hospitals needs to be improved.

c) STD/PCO booth to be installed for convenience of the patients and relatives as per IPHS standards and NRHM.

d) CHCs were lacking in many facilities and PHSC should look into this matter immediately to provide quality service to rural people.

e) Inpatients should also be provided by adequate information regarding disease and treatment.f) The inclination of community to use private services is due to ensured availability of the

services including holidays, at night, clean environment and at a time convenient to the people in the community.

g) Hence to increase the utilisation of the facilities, evening OPDs may be started. h) On the experimental basis, it may be made as pay clinics, with the choice of the patient to

select the doctor. A good share of the earning (say about 60-70%) from these pay clinics may be paid to the doctors.

i) The amount paid to the doctors as honorarium may be in consonance to the number of patients they are attending.

j) Proper and well maintained residential accommodation for doctors and other staff may be provided at all levels of health centres.

k) Security in the health institutions needs to be improved with more focus on CHCs and sub divisional hospitals.

Page 143: Pun Jab Study Final

Study to Review The Health Care Delivery System provided by PHSC, Punjab 131

l) Every Hospital should have a hospital infection control committee.m) There should be a regular grand clinical rounds for all the health centres i.e. CHCs and above.

This should be attended by all the doctors.

Hence, to sum up, the utilisation of health care services will defi nitely improve if along with the availability of doctors and required specialists, the medicines (at least the vital ones), basic laboratory and radiological investigations are made available.

Further, the emergency services and the delivery services could be improved and made available round the clock for the satisfaction of the community. This would result in increased utilisation of the facilities provided by PHSC.
