In 1996, Karuna Trust proposed a partnership with the Government to adopt and run a Primary Health Center (PHC) in Yelandur taluk, Gumballi. This marked the beginning of a public-private partnership in running PHCs in India.

  6. Public Private Partnership (PPP) • Public – Government • Private – For Profit Private Sector & Not for Profit Sector ( NGOs, VOs) • Partnership: Both the parties work together towards a common purpose. Partnership is in Policy formulation, Planning, Implementation, Monitoring, evaluation, Training & Research. • PPP is not the same as privatisation, neither does it mean that the not for profit sector (eg. NGOs) functions as contractors who implement government schemes.

  7. Key Actors in PPP • National Govt.- approval, Budget • State Govt.- Guidelines, logistics, vaccines • Karuna Trust- Implementation • PRIs( Panchayat)- Local Governance • 3 tier monitoring system- NGO( Coordinator, supervisor, MO), Local governance (PRI) and State Govt.

  8. Models/Options for PPP • Model I : KT directly implementing • Model II : Partnership with local NGO & Government. • Model III: KT playing the role of facilitator and partnership between local NGO and Govt.

Partnership Process • Identification & selection of PHCs • Response to EOI. • Dialogue with community and local PRIs • Shortlisting of NGOs • Government Order: Signing MOU with Director of Health • Handing over of PHC & SCs by DMO to Karuna Trust • 90% of budget from state Govt, 10 % contribution from NGOs • Duration : Initial three years – Renewal every year • Land, buildings and equipment are handed over to NGO.

  41. GRANT RECEIVED (December,2005 to March 2010

  42. SWOT analysis of the Project • Strength is synergy which achieved by merging of efforts from both Karuna Trust and the state government • Weakness of the project is primarily scarcity of medical and paramedical professionals, unequal opportunities available with respect to government job security and inadequate budget for some expenditures • Opportunities of the project can be counted as largest population in remote hilly region are being covered under the project in Arunachal Pradesh. Karuna Trust is providing direct health services for 55000 population through its nine PHCs and 23 SCs. • Threat to the project can be the shortage of manpower (doctors), delay in fund release and regular recruitment of NGO staff by the state Govt.

  43. Constraints we are facing • Geographical location of health centres • Long delays in releasing the Grants, 3-4 months • Less opportunity for innovations due to resource constraints • Shortage of MBBS doctors and turn over, community preference for Allopathic doctors • No budget for Monitoring & supervision and Training • Lack of understanding regarding PPP model- illiteracy • Unrealistic expectations among community members owing to lack of awareness regarding a PHC’s limitations such as cardiac surgery, orthopedics, etc. • Discrimination between Government run PHCs & NGO run PHCs • Lack of physical security for staff – underground militants in some districts of Arunachal • Lack of security among staff regarding their future in the PHC in terms of permanency of their appointment • Sometimes, tendency to override jurisdiction by local community member, Dist. authorities and socio-political condition discourage our efforts

  44. Suggestion for improvement of PPP • Extend the PPP for another 4 years for good outcomes in the health care delivery system • Deputation of Medical officers on contractual basis to NGO run PHCs • Modified budget for better capacity building of PHC staff and monitoring of PHCs • Unconditional (100%) grant to NGOs • Timely release of fund • To make PHCs of IPHS standards – adequate infrastructure

  45. Thank You
