## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND FAMILY WELFARE (DR. BHARATI PRAVIN PAWAR)

(a):  There  are  IPHS  2022  Guidelines  laid  down  by  the  government  to  provide  guidance  on  the infrastructure, human resources, drugs, diagnostic, equipment, quality and governance requirements for delivering health services at various level of facilities-SHCs, PHCs, CHCs, Sub district hospital and DH. According to IPHS 2022- 'Every district should have at least one district hospital which should be comprehensively functional for providing secondary care services'.

Rural  Health  Statistics  (RHS)  is  an  annual  publication,  based  on  Health  care  administrative  data reported by States/UTs. As per the RHS 2020-21, there are 764 District Hospitals functioning in the country which are catering to both rural and urban areas in the States/UTs . The norms for primary and secondary care facilities have been laid down as per IPHS 2022.

(b)  to  (d):  Health  is  a  state  subject.  In  addition,  Ministry  of  Health  and  Family  Welfare  provides technical  and  financial  support  to  the  States/UTs  to  strengthen  the  public  healthcare  delivery  at public healthcare facilities. Under National Health Mission (NHM), the central government provides technical and financial support to States/UTs based on proposals received from respective States/UTs in their Programme Implementation Plan (PIPs). The proposals are appraised in National Programme Coordination Committee (NPCC) meetings and approvals are accorded to States/ UTs in the form of Record of Proceedings (RoPs). Central share under NHM is released to the respective States, which in turn releases to the Districts.

Further,  as  per  Rural  Health  Statistics  2020-21,  the  state-wise  number  of  district  hospitals  is  at Annexure-I .
