IMPACT OF HEALTH COMMITTEES AND FIVE YEAR PLAN ON STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS OF HEALTH SERVICES IN INDIA
(TILL 1983)
INTRODUCTION
Since decades, India has faced many challenges to bring up the standards in the Health Service System. On achieving Independence, India engaged in a planned effort for raising the standard of living of the masses. Through the Planning Commission and various Health Committees, attempts were made to bring changes in the health sector. Here we are going to focus on the impact of the same on the health structure. For easier comprehension, let us divide it into three decades viz. 1948 – 1961, 1961 – 1969, and 1970 – 1983.
1948-1961
This decade consists of the First Two Five Year Plans, the Mudaliar Committee and the National Programs like National Malaria Control Program (NMCP), National Malaria Eradication Program (NMEP) and National Leprosy Control Program (NLCP). The Planning Commission was set up in March 1950 by resolution of
The National health services (NHS) provides a comprehensive healthcare services across the entire nation. It is considered to be UK’s proudest institution, and is envied by many other countries because of its free of cost health delivery to its population. Nevertheless, it is often seen as a ‘political football’ as it affects all of us in some way and hence everyone carry an opinion about it (Cass, 2006). Factors such as government policies, funding, number of service users, taxation etc all make up small parts of this large complex organisation. Therefore, any imbalances within one sector can pose a substantial risk on the overall NHS (Wheeler & Grice, 2000). This essay will discuss whether the NHS aim of reducing the nations need

Health care systems are organizations that are formed to meet the overall health needs of the population. Health care is regarded as one of the leading cause in promoting not only physical and mental health but the well-being of the population. Legislation is implemented requiring government to offer services to all members of its society. The role of health services and the organizations that provide aid is to focus on the health of an individual and to uphold their human rights. According to WHO (2013), a “well-functioning health care system requires a robust financing mechanism, a well-trained and adequately-paid workforce, reliable information on which to base decisions and policies, and well maintained facilities and logistics to deliver quality medicines and technologies (World Health Organization; 2013).
Task 1 requires you to submit a written piece of work covering all learning outcomes (LO1s, LO2s & LO3s) with a reflective account embedded in the context of work.
A health care system is the association of institutions related to people's health and resources. It delivers health services in order to meet the health needs of the targeted populations (Nigam, 2011). There is a wide variation in the world of how different nations organize their health care systems, with almost all nations having differing health care organizational structures. Planning in some countries for health care distributes to those participating in markets. In other countries, however, planning is as a result of joint efforts between the government, religious bodies, and charities among other groups (Nigam, 2011).
Social Work is growing now a day due because of poverty, which is why there is a big

Health System has been developed; the most basic unit is a Sub-Health Post or Health Post in each Village Development Committee area. However, the expansion of the Health System has not been matched by an expansion in the domestive resources, workers and supplies, and the available resources are not efficiently distributed. In
The country of India is second in terms of population size and the major cities are becoming overcrowded. Poverty rates in India have increased over the last few years and despite the economic boom the country is experiencing, the people are still living in overcrowded ghettos or slums. Overcrowding and population has brought healthcare challenges. In India, maternal and child mortality are still high, malnutrition among children and pregnant women increase yearly, and the country leads the numbers of Tuberculosis (TB) infection. Furthermore, India’s HIV problem has increased and now is third among 195 countries. The lack of basic healthcare, support and supplies from Indian official has only fueled the healthcare challenges it faces.
India is country known all over the world for its culture and tradition. It is a land with various cultures and traditions which are as vast as the subcontinent upon which they are located. This essay will focus on the Indian culture and highlight the different beliefs that Indians have on life processes. The essay will show the different methods Indians use to stay healthy and how the Indian culture can determine how healthcare services are provided to the people.
It is said that a healthy nation is a wealthy nation. Healthcare is an important concern for every government as people get ill, accidents happen, emergencies arise and the health institutions are needed to diagnose, manage and treat the different types of ailments or diseases that may arise. The healthcare industry is divided into several areas in order to meet the health needs of anyone and everyone. All over the world, the healthcare structures are different to accommodate specific needs of the people in that demographic however the healthcare methodology in Third World Countries does not accommodate the needs of their respective inhabitants in comparison to First world Countries. The Rate of corruption, quality of healthcare institutions, lack of adequate, functional surveillance systems and problematic hygiene conditions are amongst the top reasons why the healthcare systems in third world countries are substandard in comparison to First world nations.
In Nepal, modern health services have a short history. Until the early 1960s, only a few urban hospitals and rural dispensaries were available. Since the late 1980s, thousands of health institutions have been established at the Village Development Committee (VDC) level. During the past 15 years, Nepal has achieved significant progress in the field of child and maternal mortality and eradicating polio and meningitis. That has been an encouragingmove toward achieving Millennium Development Goal targets. To ensure universal health coverage, the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) has a plan to set up health centers within a half an hour walking distance of each village. The government has started providing free basic medicine for all citizens through public health institution. However, it is generally impossible for rural people to find all prescribed medicines throughout the entire year due to shipping difficulties and medicine shortages.The government has been providing basic healthcare services through sub-health post,thebottom level of healthcare institutions in Nepal.
