The
results of the Surveys have helped in assessing the performance of health
sector programmes, planning new schemes / progammes and realigning the existing
health schemes. National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) was launched in 2005 to
provide accessible, affordable and quality health care to the population,
especially the vulnerable groups. Following the success of
NRHM, National Urban Health Mission was also lunched and the two Missions have
been now subsumed under National Health Mission (NHM). Further, using data from
DLHS and AHS, the Ministry has identified 184 High Priority Districts for
focused attention on reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent
health.
The Health Minister, Shri J P Nadda stated this in a written reply
in the Rajya Sabha here today.
