All the districts had prepared the District Health action Plan by considering the
need for the healthcare services including the sub centers, primary health
centers, community health centers and block health offices. All the DHAPs were
prepared by considering the demands and requirements for better healthcare
delivery at every level.
All districts prepared their plan as per the generated demands at every levelincluding villages, sub centers, PHCs, CHCs and block health offices. The
requirements raised by the lower level were consolidated at block level and these
requirements were taken into consideration while preparing the DHAPs.
All the requirements were considered during preparation of DHAPs but in some
districts these requirements and demands were not documented in form of the
Block Plans and Village level action plans.One of the important reasons is the lack of awareness at PRI level about the
NRHM framework. The state has started training and mentoring of village health
and sanitation committee members to build their capacity for making their own
village action plan. 3800 VHSCs were trained in the year 2009-10 and all VHSC
will be trained in three years. .In future the state will focus on documenting the
block plans and village level action plans in all the districts.
Para 1.3.7.2

NRHM. The fund were distributed to lower level including Village Healthand Sanitation Committees, Rogi Kalyan Samities, Sub Centers etc. and

facilities and to ensure quality services at CHCs and PHCs. In

accounts for up gradation of PHC environment.In the year 2005-06 no grant were released to CHCs and PHCs
because of the lack of clarity as it was the first year of the
mission. In the year 2006-07 the untied fund and maintenance

9.2 There is a shortage of specialists and MBBS doctors in the state
because of which it is not possible to have specialists on each CHC and
MBBS doctors on each PHC. Because of the shortage of specialists, the
CHCs are run by one medical officer who can not manage criticaloperation theater.
State is in a quality improvement phase including infrastructure. State is
trying to upgrade its facilities as per the IPHS and NABH standards to
provide quality services to the community. Some of the CHCs are
developed in PHCs building and physical up gradation has been taken
up in a phased manner. That may have lead to unavailability of separate
wards for male and female at some of the CHCs. In Annual Development
Plan 2010-11 of state budget remaining 37 CHC and 26 PHC have been
sanctioned to fullfill the population standard. Also 50 CHC will be
upgrated as per IPHS standard.
Where the health centers are not functional because of lack of facilities;
the state has taken alternative ways to provide services to the community
in term of Chiranjeevi Scheme, EMRI-108 and Bal Sakha Scheme etc.
Total 721 Gynecologist has been enrolled under Chiranjeevi scheme to
provide maternal care and 322 Pediatrician has been enrolled under Baal

As per the IPHS norms, there should be seven specialists in each CHC. The
state is not able to fulfill the requirement because of the shortage of specialists
in the state. The state has taken an alternative way to overcome the situation
and better healthcare provision for the community.
The state has started Public Private Partnership model to involve private
service providers. Chirnjeevi Scheme and Bal Sakha Scheme are the example
of PPP model adopted by the state.
Chiranjeevi scheme is to provide safe delivery services to the community by the
private service providers. Initially the scheme was started in five districts on
pilot basis and expended in the entire state later by seeing the success of the
scheme. All the expenses for these deliveries are paid by the government. Till

Commissioner of Health, Medical Services and Medical Education (HS)
letter no.TB/382007/ATR/SGS Rpt/08 issued from TB branch for
blacklisting party was only for RNTCP programme. It is nothing to do with
other branches.These mentioned 11 parties were black listed by RNTCP
programme sub committee, Gujarat on the basis of small lapses in
procurement. These lapses were not actually serious malpractices. Thisprocurement review was done on the basis of international standards not
on the local availability and requirements. It is merely restricted to the
RNTCP programme subcommittee at state level and district level.
Because of which the information was not circulated to the other
branches of state health society and district health societies. It is difficult
of follow the international standards for other programmes. Otherprogrammes are having flexibilities and the rules are not very strict as
word bank guidelines which are for RNTCP

Due to the dedicated efforts of health team, our state has been able
to prevent polio cases. The effective Polio vaccination coverage
through routine immunization and pulse polio rounds has helped in
moving towards polio eradication. The state of Gujarat has notreported a single case of polio since 2 and half years. The state
has achieved more than 100% coverage trough booth and house
activities with effective utilization of Polio funds. The below
mentioned reasons can be the cause for more than 100%
Coverage.
Migration from other areas or state
As verification of age is not possible in the field, inclusion of
children older than 5 year of age may take place
The main aim of the pulse polio rounds is to cover every child with
two drops of polio vaccine & eradicate the disease

Male sterilization is always been an issue in sterilization services. In Gujarat
during the year 2005-06 and 2006-07 we have only 31 trained NSV surgeons
and NSV was not in practice. We have started focusing on male participation
and an extensive campaign was done in 2007-08. That year Gujarat has done
more than 20000 NSV and we got a 1st prize at national level for better
performance in male sterilization. But it was started in campaign mode just to
sensitized the system that the male sterilization can also be done. Now the
government is trying to bring this in routine family planning activities and our last
two years performance says that trend has already started after the extensive
campaign of 2007-08.During the year 2005-06 & 2006-07 the male participation
was only 0.2 and 0.1 percent. After that it was improved and in the year 2007-08
it was 6.65% and in 2008-09 it was 3.54%. This year in 2009-10 the total male
sterilization is 2.89% of total sterilization done in the state. Also to increase the
male sterilization, the mind set of the people is needed to be changed which is a
slow process. The state is focusing on extensive IEC/BCC campaign to bring
the change in the mind set of the people. The state is also determined to trainmore and more surgeons for NSV. In the year 2007-08 we have trained 128
doctors in NSV and now Gujarat is having more than 200 trained doctors for
providing NSV services. The Health & Family Welfare department is working on
the re positioning of the surgeons in the area where the male sterilization is in
practice.
