Introduction Revised guidelines emphasize on the services to be delivered at each level of facility. 6
2022 IPHS guidelines have been framed for Sub-District Hospitals (SDH) & District Hospitals (DH), Community Health Centres (CHC) – rural and urban, Health and Wellness Centre – Primary Health Centre (PHC) – rural and urban, including Multispecialty UPHC (Polyclinics) in urban areas, Health and Wellness Centre – Sub Health Centre (SHC) – rural and urban. 2022 IPHS norms support government health facilities to attain a minimum acceptable functional standard (essential) while striving and aspiring for improvement (desirable) so as to accelerate India’s progress towards achievement of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and Sustainable Development Goal - 3 (SDG-3) in alignment with the National Health Policy 2017. 7
Objectives of IPHS for HWC-PHC 8
1 HWC - PHCs In R ural areas, the states should aspire to make all PHCs functional as 24x7 facilities. Prioritization of PHCs conducting deliveries - 24x7 HWCPHCs. All other PHCs should continue to provide routine care along with preventive and promotive health interventions and function as PHCs-HWCs. 2 Urban HWC - PHCs Provide routine OPD care along with preventive and promotive health interventions and function as UPHCs-HWCs. UPHCs with indoor beds already conducting deliveries can continue to function as 24x7 UPHCs-HWCs. 3 Specialist UPHC/Polyclinic (urban): To further reduce morbidity and mortality by providing specialist services on ambulatory/day care basis, closer to the urban community. Limited to outpatient care. Types/Categories of PHC/UPHC 9
Population norm for HWC-PHC Type of PHC Facility Plain areas Hilly & Tribal Areas 1 Rural PHC 30,000 20,000 2 Urban PHC 50,000 - 3 Polyclinic 2.5 lakh – 3 lakh - 10
Defines standards in local context of country Suggests in-house hiring of clinical and critical staff Consideration of health needs of entire district as a whole to provide district health action plan. Implementation of national programmes at individual facilities. AYUSH services are desirable. Display of Citizens’ charter at entrance All HWC – PHCs should have façade branding as per GOI guidelines Provide information about the Various services being offered, timings, Responsibilities of patients and providers, Details of referral vehicles and facilities, The number of free drugs and diagnostics being provided and other citizen friendly information. Patients’ rights should be ensured, and they should also be made aware of their responsibilities e.g. To keep the facility clean and avoid spitting in corners, Avoiding overcrowding by attendants, Respecting visiting hours, Not causing any harm to public property or indulging in violence against healthcare professionals etc. General principles of IPHS 11
A facility will be deemed as IPHS compliant if it fulfills the criteria that it provides all the ‘essential’ services identified for that level of facility rendered through requisite Infrastructure, Human Resource, Drugs, and Equipment. The norms for service provision, infrastructural and human resource requirements, drugs, diagnostics and equipment, quality assurance, monitoring and governance will apply uniformly across all facilities in rural and urban areas. https://nhsrcindia.org/IPHS2022 Criteria for IPHS Compliance 12
