Wight gain – Birth weight • 90% had normal deliveries • 10% had cesarean section. • 52% of pregnant women gained 9 -10Kgs weight Note: study conducted in 8 districts inclusive of mandals in 3 ITDAs. Source : External evaluation study by SOCHURSOD
Rationale – low uptake • Failure to reach 100% coverage with basic health services is two fold : • no accessibility • lack of quality services • Very little interaction between the departments for • Social mobilization • Service delivery • Fixation of day and time by the service providers often conflict with the work schedules of users. • Users have not had any say in the scheduling process.
Paradigm shift • Fix the mis-match between supply and demand • Community to have stake in quality service delivery • Fix a day to deliver the services on a common platform • Complementary roles by service providers and the user groups

Tracking- mNDCC- DSS Individual JARs for each mobile/VO has to be downloaded. New enrollments or editing existing member information possible Various reports generated as per program design Encrypted data sent in string format Application program decrypts data which is stored in table format Alert sent to provide due list etc. Global Innovation - IWG award 2012 Preloaded SHG member wise database maintained by BF in a different server
Impact of mNDCC • Exceptional reports generation as review tools and take action for • reaching the unreached • escalating the issues if not resolved • Regular review using the exceptional reports showed improved coverage among POP • Enrollment from 58% to 72% • ANC from 10% to 31% • PNC from 5% to 29% • Immunization from 16% to 24% • Growth monitoring from 12% to 39% • Health Education from 14% to 48%
Challenges Sensitization and coordination among the line depts Internalization of the concept among stakeholders Fix a day to every habitation based on ANM Tour schedule Accountability to CBOs Bring into the district administration agenda Consolidation and track the outcomes at member level
Way forward – Village level institutions in the driving seat • Recognition of Village Organisation as the nodal institution to monitor health , nutrition and sanitation outcomes (Community) • Institutionalization of VSHNDs under NRHM (Panchayat) • Issue of Government Order – ‘Maapru’ (The Change) to bring all the stakeholders to a common platform (Service providers)
Is it replicable ? • Yes, it is. • Pre-requisites • Availability of community based network • Partnership between the CBOs and the line departments • Sensitization & regular capacity building of the stakeholders • Exposure visits • Trainings • Tracking the member based outcomes • Maintenance of supply chain as per the demand • Political commitment to mainstream
