Health planning and evaluation
Health planning and evaluation:
Health does not only mean absence of a disease, instead its a state of complete physical and mental well- being. Achieving and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is very essential for every individual.
You must have saved for your tough times, but with the increase in the medical cost, savings alone does not suffice. A surgery costs 10 times more than what it used to 5 years back and with the increasing medical facilities and developments, these prices are ascertained to rise. Your health is in your control. Besides, maintaining the basic conditions of hygiene, its important for an individual to cover himself under a health insurance policy. Perfect health is never guaranteed, therefore its important to have a health cover. Buying a medical policy is the most important step towards health planning. Although it does not save you from diseases but help you to meet the sky rocketing medical expenses.
Neither your past employer nor any insurance company would cover you at that age. This is the age where we get vulnerable to multiple medical problems such as heart diseases, blood pressure, diabetes, joint pains and many more ailments which require regular medical attention.
Buying a medical policy then would not be of much use as it would not cover many diseases and the policy holder would have to bear a waiting period to get them onto the list. Moreover, the policy would not cover any pre-existing disease which otherwise would have got covered under a policy bought earlier. Thus, its very important to carry a health cover at every stage of life and proper health planning is the key to achieving good health.
The planning cycle:
- Monitoring & Evaluation
- Analysis
- Objectives
- Action Plan
The course is designed to improve the management skills of people working in community health and development programmes. The course provides practical skills related to programme planning, monitoring and evaluation. Participants will learn how to prepare a 3 year programmatic plan in a LFA (Logical Framework Analysis) format.

The Government is conscious of the need for dynamic Indian health planning and management. Innovative healthcare and development programs are the need of the hour. For this, major organizations like the National AIDS Control organization have been established by the Health Ministry. The areas to focus on in Health Planning have been laid down by the Ministry’s National Health Policy. Some of them are mentioned below:
Increasing Healthcare programs: To be implemented in various socio-economic settings of different States of India.
Increasing Public Health infrastructure: More hospitals, Outdoor medical facilities, Medical equipments.
Efficient doctors and nurses: To ensure minimum standards of Patient care.
Family Medicine: Establishing more personnel for family healthcare.
Low cost drugs and vaccines: Keeping in view of the possible globalization induced high costs.
Mental health: Need for increase in hospitals and professionals.
Health research: Medical innovation and specialization is needed.
Disease control: More database needs to be collected in this regard in order treat and prevent diseases.
Women’s health: Adequate access to public healthcare facilities is a necessity which in turn will improve family health as well.
List of National Health Programs organized by the health ministry are National Vector Borne Disease Control Program (NVBDCP) , National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Program, National Leprosy Eradication Program, National Program for Control of Blindness, National Filaria Control Program, National Program for Prevention and Control of Deafness, National Cancer Control Program, National Aids Control Program,

Some more endeavors for health planning in India are Medical Health Division, Hospital Services Consultancy Corporation, SC/ST facilities, Central Government Health Schemes, Prevention of food adulteration, establishment of food and drug testing laboratories, L.R.S. Institute of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, National Rural Health Mission, etc. As a part of its socially progressive Common Minimum Programme, the UPA Government launched the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) in 2005. Almost by the currently prescribed policy book described above, it aimed to undertake an ‘architectural correction’ of the public health system to enable it to effectively absorb
increased expenditure to provide accessible, affordable and accountable primary health care services to poor households in remote parts of rural India.
