  2. The Status of Health Infrastructure in the State Norms for Sub- center – 3000 to 5000, PHC- 20000 to 30000 CHC- 80000 to 120000

  3. Status of Major Health Indicators

  4. Quality Assurance Cell 1. Genesis 2. Operationalisation 3. QA field visits 4. Lessons Learned 4. Next Steps

  5. Experiences of implementing Quality Assurance in Rajasthan • Initiated from September 2008 under the tripartite agreement between Government of Rajasthan, UNFPA and Prayas. In the Pilot Phase :- • Carried out in four districts – Ajmer, Nagaur, Sikar & Udaipur • 25 sub-centres, 5 PHCs and 1 CHC in each block i.e. 4 blocks in each district. • A total of 100 sub-centres, 20 PHCs & 4 CHCs in each district and Overall 400 sub- centres, 80 PHCs and 16 CHCs in four districts

Performance indicators are Institutional Deliveries and IPD Load • 50% CHC are good performing & 50% are average performing 1 CHC 1 CHC 1 CHC 1 CHC • 5 PHCs from each identified blocks. Performance indicator is OPD Load. • 50% PHC are good performing & 50% are average performing 5 PHCs 5 PHCs 5 PHCs 5 PHCs • 25 SCs from each identified blocks. Performance indicator is Immunization status. • 50% SCs are good performing & 50% are average performing 25 SCs 25 SCs 25 SCs 25 SCs
