Indias Health Challenges
Will Universal Health CoverageProvide The
Platform For Response?

Indias Health Status Lags Behind Economic
Growth And Threatens To Slow Down Development

India is Under performing its Income Group Peers
in Health
4
We lose 1,400,000 infants every year, 4000 every
dayequivalent to 12 full Jumbo Jets crashing
every day. Our children die early, prematurely,
and needlessly

And has Lagged Behind

On providing basic immunization to our children,
we are behind Bangladesh, Nepal, Thailand, Ghana,
Pakistan, to name a few
30 of children in India go without DPT coverage,
50 without full immunization

Despite all the progress, 40 children in India
are undernourished. A national shame!
25 of Indias newborns start life with Low Birth
Weight
Of those who survive the first year, 43 are
underweight, and 66 anaemic by age of three
Undernourishment severely limits cognitive
development and increases vulnerability to
heart disease diabetes

Our maternal mortality rate is 4X of China and
Brazil, 6X of Sri Lanka
We only compare favorably with Pakistan, Gabon
and Cambodia
60,000 plus mothers die every year. More deaths
in a week than in a whole year in Europe
A sacrifice to give life a preventable tragedy

Incidence and prevalence of infectious diseases
remains high
TB incidence
  1. 2 million new cases every year
  2. Incidence rate 200-300 more that of China and
    Brazil. In the range of Afghanistan and Pakistan
  3. Drug resistant TB a major threat

Malaria prevalence
  1. 9.7 million cases, with 40,000 deaths every year
    (recent ICMR study)
  2. Over 70 of India at risk of malaria infection

In Chronic (non-communicable) diseases such as
diabetes and cardiovascular disorders, we are
facing advancing epidemics
Diabetes epicenter of the world 61 million
cases in 2011 to rise to 101 million in 2030
Every 8th adult has or is at high-risk. 40-60
working age group most affected
India could lose US 237 billion (over 2005-2015)
to cardiovascular disease and diabetes (WHO)
Potentially productive years of life lost due to
cardiovascular deaths (36-64 years age group) In
millions
Underlying risk factors - unhealthy diets,
physical inactivity, alcohol consumption and
tobacco use
2000
2030
If neglected, this will be a source of continuing
productivity loss

Quality of Primary Care
  • Scored For
  • 24 Hour Availability of Services
  • Clinical Staff In Position
  • Training In Past 5 Years
  • Basic Infrastructure
  • Equipment
  • Essential Drugs

Public health spend not yet a high priority. Our
public expenditure on health is among the lowest
in the world
Country Public expenditure on health as of GDP Per capita public expenditure on health (PPP)
Sri Lanka 1.8 87
India 1.2 43
Thailand 3.3 261
China 2.3 155
More funding needed with right investments such
as Primary healthcare Education and training
facilities medical and public health
Availability of essential drugs to all
Expansion of universal health coverage
Need for doubling of public spending on health to
at least 2 of GDP by end of 12th Plan
Source WHO database, 2009

Low Public, High Out of Pocket Health Expenditure
14
Unaffordable and unsustainable healthcare costs
70 of health spend from own pockets on health.
Out of pocket (OOP) expenditure amongst highest
in the world
Over 60 million people thrown below the poverty
line every year due to OOP on health
Over 40 of hospitalised persons had to borrow
money or sell assets to pay for their care
28 of rural residents and 20 of urban residents
had no funds for health care
Huge social burden on the poor

Our Definition of UHC
  • Ensuring equitable access for all Indian
    citizens resident in any part of the country,
    regardless of income level, social status,
    gender, caste or religion, to affordable,
    accountable and appropriate, assured quality
    health services (promotive, preventive, curative
    and rehabilitative) as well as public health
    services addressing wider determinants of health
    delivered to individuals and populations, with
    the government being the guarantor and enabler,
    although not necessarily the only provider, of
    health and related services.

20
Universal Health Coverage is when ALL people
receive the quality health services they need
without suffering financial hardship

National Rural Health Mission (NRHM)
  • SHORTFALLS
  • Focus on maternal and child health other
    primary health care needs not addressed
  • Quality of care not assured, even for
    institutional deliveries
  • Health workforce deficiencies (numbers skills)
    affect delivery of services
  • Impact on out-of-pocket not demonstrated
  • Continuum of care (10 20 30) not developed
  • HIGHLIGHTS
  • Decentralized planning and implementation through
    community participation (through various
    initiatives such as ASHA, VHSC, SHGs)
  • Pro poor-based equitable systems
  • Emphasis on convergence
  • Flexibility and adequacy of central funding with
    accountability framework to ensure public action
  • Judicious mix of dedicated budget lines untied
    funds to all public institutions
  • Provision of incentives for CHWs in hard-to-reach
    areas
  • Monitoring progress against standards (such as
    IPHS)
  • Targeted interventions to measureable outcomes,
    reviewed annually through the CRM process

23
Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojna (RSBY)
  • HIGHLIGHTS
  • Indias first social-security scheme with a
    profit motive, involving insurance companies,
    hospitals, state governments and the Centre
  • Encourages increased contributions to health and
    augments financial resources of the State
    governments
  • Attempts to address several lacunae regarding
    enrolment, utilisation levels and fraud control
  • Mandatory enrolment and technology-based cashless
    policies address the problem of risk selection
    and selective rejection of claims by insurers.
  • SHORTFALLS
  • Low coverage with financial protection available
    only for hospitalization, and not for out-patient
    care
  • Focus on hospital networks rather than primary
    care services
  • Difficult to maintain quality of healthcare at
    accredited hospitals due to induced demand and
    fraud
  • Potential for inferior health outcomes and high
    healthcare cost inflation

24
Key Recommendations of HLEG
  • Adopt UHC As A National commitment - To Be
    Initiated in 2012 and Fulfilled By 2022
  • Commit 2.5 of GDP As Public Financing for Health
    During The 12th Plan and suggest MOHFW prepare a
    road-map for implementation of the UHC
  • Prioritize Primary Health Care For Financing And
    Human Resource Development Deployment
  • Conduct A Review of Government Funded Insurance
    Schemes Propose A Plan for Their Integration
    Into The UHC Framework
  • Provide Essential Drugs Free Of Cost
  • Establish Credible And Effective Regulatory
    Systems For Administering UHC (Accreditation
    Standards Financing Drugs Information Systems
    ME)
  • Enable Community Participation By
    Institutionalising Health Councils Health
    Assemblies With Government Support
  • Facilitate focusing future MOHFW agendas on a)
    Gender -UHC though a gendered lens b) Urban
    Health c) Social Determinants Of Health (Health
    Promotion Protection Trust), while preparing
    its implementation plan

23
25
Universal Health Coverage By 2022 The Vision
  • Universal Health Entitlement for every citizen -
    to a National Health Package (NHP) of essential
    primary, secondary tertiary health care
    services that will be principally funded by the
    government
  • Package to be defined periodically by an Expert
    Group can have state specific variations

26
Impoverishment due to OOP on Drugs, 2011-12
27
Issues for Debate(Financing)
  • Tax funded model Vs. Insurance Model
  • Financing and Impact of Government Funded
    Insurance Schemes
  • Role of Private Insurance
  • Fee for Service Vs. Per Capita Vs. ?
  • User Fee Exemption All / Poor only?
  • Role of Central and State Governments

28
Issues for Debate(Provision)
  • Role of Public and Private Sectors
  • Corporatization of Public Sector Healthcare
    Facilities
  • Managed Vs. Integrated Care
  • Continuum of Care Overcoming Fragmentation
  • Extent of Integration of Health Programmes
    (NRHMNUHM ? NHM)

29
Options
  • Options based on coverage (who is covered for
    what)
  • All the services to all the population
  • Some services to all the population
  • Some services to certain sections of the
    population
  • Provision
  • Within the existing government health services
    (in an enhanced manner)
  • Through the private sector (Purchasing,
    contracting, PPP)
  • Finance
  • Enhanced budgetary support based on evidence
  • Pooling (insurance) Increasing existing benefit
    package, coverage under existing schemes
    (coverage, benefits etc. under RSBY other
    schemes)
  • Incentives (payment for performance), Case based
    payment, capitation etc.
  • Based on the options - populations to be covered,
    services (benefit package) to be provided, method
    of delivery, estimation regarding financial
    requirements

30
Options
  • Options could be a mix of delivery systems
    providing the services selected from the health
    package.
  • Realignment convergence of programmes and
    schemes
  • Development of a essential health package of
    services into various categories to choose (e.g.
    primary, secondary, tertiary, etc.) and move
    towards it systematically phased manner.
  • Costing of the benefit package
  • Broad roadmap on how best to provide the services
    to the populations and what needs to be
    strengthened or systems in place and their
    implications.

31
Human Resources For Health
  • Increase numbers and skills of frontline health
    workers
  • Doubling of ASHAs and ANMs
  • Male MPW and Mid Level Health Professional (3
    year trainee)/AYUSH at Sub-Centre level
  • Expand Staff (esp. nurses) at PHC and CHC
  • Nurse-Practitioners for Urban Primary Health Care

32
Human Resources For Health
  • Establish new medical and nursing colleges in
    underserved states and districts with linkage to
    district hospitals Increase the number of ANM
    schools
  • Scale up number and quality of Allied Health
    Professional training institutions
  • Establish District Health Knowledge Institutes to
    coordinate and conduct training of different
    categories of health workers
  • Develop Public Health and Health Management
    Cadres (District, State, National)
