India - Orissa Health Systems Development Project
Rice, E. B.
The Orissa Health Systems Development Project aims to assist the government of Orissa to 1) improve efficiency in allocating and using health resources; and 2) improve the performance of the health care system by improving quality, effectiveness, and coverage at the referral level and select coverage at the community level. There are three components. The first, Management Development and Institutional Strengthening, strengthens planning, management, and implementation capacity at the state, district, and facility levels; and strengthens the health management information system (HMIS) and the capacity for surveillance of major communicable diseases. The second, Improving Service Quality, Access, and Effectiveness at the Secondary Level, upgrades area, sub-divisional, and district hospitals; and improves effectiveness of clinical, managerial, and support services at the facility level. The third component, Improving Access to Basic Health Services at the Community Level, selectively upgrades community health centers; promotes health services for tribal areas and disadvantaged groups; and improves referral mechanisms and strengthens linkages between the different tiers of the health care system.
