  1. Application of GIS for Development of Public Health Care Delivery Planning in India at National Consultation on GIS in Health SectorNew Delhi

  2. Presented by Jansankhya Sthirata Kosh (JSK)(National Population Stabilisation Fund) An autonomous body and a Registered Society of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India.

  3. Establishment of Jansankhya Sthirata Kosh (JSK) • JSK is a unique organization. Its goal is to promote initiatives which leverage the strength of different economic and social sectors and reach out to needy population groups through innovative strategies. • It is a combination of Government and Civil society working hand in hand to promote innovations by drawing on the strength of joint partnerships.

  4. The Union Health Minister heads the General Body of JSK and the Ministries of • Health and Family Welfare, • Women and Child Development, • Department of School Education and Literacy, • Rural Development, • Planning Commission are represented by their Secretaries on the General Body of JSK. • 100% Tax Exemption is available under section 80G(2)(a)(vii) of the INCOME TAX ACT, 1961 for donations to JSK. (Online Donation Facility Available)

  5. JSK’s Initiatives • GIS Mapping • Responsible Parenthood Prerna Award • Call Centre Service • Santushti • Promotion of IUCD 380A • Adoption of DPL Sterilization • Media Workshop • Mindset change Posters • Virtual Resource Centre

  6. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) Mapping • JSK in collaboration with NIC has undertaken the GIS Mapping of every district in the country in terms of population density and distance of every village from a primary heath-centre and a sub centre. • It also provides a ranking of every district, intra-state and inter-state on select development indices.

  7. JSK’s Initiative to Measure Inequity through GIS Maps www.jsk.gov.in

  8. Health Facilities in District Indore, Madhya Pradesh

  9. Creating a Spreadsheet (Excel Table) that corresponds (relates) with district performance (graphical) in different socio-economic and demographic indicators

  10. Measurement of Progress • Intra-state variations • Inter-state variations • These can be captured through Ranking based on Composite Index

  11. Ranking and Mapping of districts based on Socio-Economic and Demographic Indicators done by IIPS in 2006 and Visual Conversion of Ranking of districts undertaken byJSK in 2007-08 Converting Survey Results into Visual data

  12. Composite Index based on 13 Socio-Economic and Demographic Indicators 1. Child population 0-6 (%) 9. Full Immunization (%) 2. Birth Order 3+ (%) 10.Immunization dropout (%) 3. Births below age 20 (%) 11. Under 5 Mortality Rate 4. HHs using Toilet facility (%) 12. HHs with Electricity (%) 5. Women receiving (2) TT (%) 13. Female Literacy (%) 6. Women receiving ANC (%) 7. HHs with Safe drinking water (%) 8. Contraceptive Prevalence Rate (%)

  13. Geographical distribution of PHCs and ranking of districts

  14. The bar charts representing key health and social indices have brought out their position.

  16. Health Facilities in District Indore, Madhya Pradesh

  17. Sub district wise distance from nearest PHC of villages with respect to population size Ranking of district based on selected socio-economic indicator and composite Index.

  18. The facility is available on the JSK website www.jsk.gov.infree of cost.

  19. JSK won the e–India Award 2008 under the best government initiative of the year in the health sector. Executive Director, JSK receiving the Award

  20. Summary • The amalgamation of GIS Mapping and Census Data has given district and sub-district level information in visual form. • The distances of villages from primary health facilities have depicted underserved areas with a high degree of specificity. • The bar charts representing key health and social indices have brought out inter district disparity. • It is a useful tool for academicians, students, researchers, development and medical professionals, elected representatives and policy makers.

  21. Challenges and limitations • User Friendly Interface • How GIS maps can be easy to understand by a common man? • GIS maps are useful tool for Administrators and Policy makers. • Professional Service • JSK involved NIC as its technology partner, lack of suitable • manpower. • Unavailability of data • One of the major challenges the data was either available for • some of the districts or it was not in a shape for the creation of • maps. (For example, Himachal Pradesh is a hilly state, the district • boundaries are hard to find and after plotting the amenities, it is • difficult to get any thing out of the maps)

  22. Steps ahead • Present GIS maps covers • Health Services • Population Density maps • A similar exercise can be done for demographic indicators (likeTFR, IMR, CPR, Unmet need) • The present GIS maps are static, user can’t see the data of his interest only. Hence, there is scope to make the existing web interface into more interactive or dynamic feature.
