Answers
Answer:
This chapter discusses the measures implemented by government to improve quality of care. It also presents the efforts, supported by NGOs and donors, at assisting government to improve its quality of care by improving systems, implementing comprehensive interventions, and improving provider competencies for delivering specific contraceptive methods. To ensure quality of family planning services, efforts led by the government include introducing guidelines for equipment, supplies, infrastructure, outreach strategies, human resources, and establishing quality assurance committees at state and district levels. To address the concern over quality of sterilization services, specifically at camp facilities, the Family Planning Indemnity Scheme was introduced. In order to improve the method mix and offer more choices to couples, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare is expanding the basket of contraceptive products by introducing new methods and improving the supply chain logistics management information system. Several NGOs with support from various donor agencies are working with government to augment service delivery to improve quality of care. This has resulted in increased acceptance of contraceptive methods, indicating some impact of improved quality of care.
