    National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) Scheme in India

    national rural health mission

    The requirement for healthcare services has been rising in recent times. However, the accessibility and expenses of such services have been a nightmare for the vulnerable population. Keeping this in mind, the Indian Government introduced NRHM (National Rural Health Mission) to provide high-quality and affordable healthcare facilities to the rural population.

    What is the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM)?

    The former Prime Minister of India launched NRHM (National Rural Health Mission) in April 2005. There have been frequent complaints among Indian citizens regarding healthcare services and their availability, particularly in rural areas. The emphasis of NRHM is on Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child Health and Adolescent (RMNCH+A) Services. It focuses on developing strategies to improve maternal health and child care.

    Its long-term goal is to provide a fully-functional and decentralised health delivery system. It also aims to provide inter-sectoral convergence at all levels to ensure health determinants such as education, nutrition, sanitation, water, social equality, and others.

    Role of the National Rural Health Mission

    The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) is a vital healthcare instrument in rural India. It primary roles are:

    • NRHM’s objective is to ensure that even the most remote and disadvantaged regions can access basic medical services. This entails constructing new health facilities and upgrading the existing ones.
    • It invests in building and maintaining healthy infrastructure, ensuring that rural health centres are adequately resourced for medical needs.
    • Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs), an army created by NRHM, bridge the gap between communities and healthcare systems to ensure that rural dwellers get timely necessary care.
    • To address this issue, the mission stresses community participation in planning health services at local levels to develop programs that meet people's various needs.
    • NRHM pursues holistic approaches to health by implementing its policies on integrated modern healthcare practices and traditional Indian systems of medicine.
    • It supports various national health programs aimed at controlling diseases like malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS, ensuring that rural populations receive preventive and curative services.
    • For instance, the NRHM runs health education campaigns to boost awareness about important health issues, hygiene practices, immunisation, and the importance of regular checkups.

    Overall, NRHM aims to establish a well-functioning health system that is accessible to everyone, cost-effective, and improves the overall well-being of people living in rural areas across India.

    Objectives of the National Rural Health Mission

    The primary objectives of NRHM focus on the overall government vision to help citizens access affordable healthcare facilities. Outcomes of NRHM have hardly changed with amendments to the 12th plan. Therefore, the following National Rural Health Mission objectives are primary to its long-term vision.

    • Reduction of MMR (Maternal Mortality Rate) and IMR (Infant Mortality Rate) to 100/1000 and 30/1000 live births, respectively
    • Decrease in Total Fertility Rate (TFR) to 2.1
    • Elimination of anaemia tendencies among women aged 15-49 years
    • Reduction of annual malaria mortality to 60%
    • Decrease in leprosy among 1/10000 population
    • Microfilaria prevalence reduction to less than 1%
    • Reduction in mortality and morbidity from diseases and injuries

    In essence, the National Rural Health Mission aims to improve healthcare in rural areas by upgrading facilities, expanding services, and involving local communities to ensure better health for everyone.

    Features of the National Rural Health Mission

    NRHM was launched as the Government's commitment to improving the healthcare architecture at lower expenses. While analysing its features and benefits, one must understand what NRHM means to the Indian Government and its target citizenship.

    Quality Healthcare and Service Delivery in Rural Areas

    Some basic facilities of NRHM include providing a high-quality and accessible healthcare infrastructure for the vulnerable population in rural areas. Apart from the Empowered Action Group (EAG) States, it is also functional in most rural regions of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and the North Eastern States. In addition, it has added over 1.88 lakh other health human resources, including multi-skilled doctors, GDMOs (General Duties Medical Officers), ANMs (Auxiliary Nurse Midwife) and Staff Nurses.

    Free Drugs and Diagnostics Service

    The Free Drugs Service is a significant feature of the NRHM scheme. The Government allows additional 5% incentives over the allocated funding for drugs. When the Indian States/UTs meet certain specifications, they can utilise the benefits of the NHM-Free Drug Service Initiative. The NHM-Free Diagnostics Service Initiative, on the other hand, provides free diagnostic services to all eligible states within their resource envelope. This feature incorporates High Cost-low frequency diagnostic services, Lab technicians and equipment, Radiologists and other Human Resources.

    Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs)

    The first port of call for the marginalised population rests with the responsibility of the ASHAs. Keeping this in mind, the Indian Government has incorporated more than 9.5 Lakh ASHAs serving the roles of facilitators, mobilisers and providers as a part of the community-level care. Thus, most states have indulged in ASHA training of young candidates to develop higher-quality delivery, immunisation and maternal support.

    Rogi Kalyan Samiti/Hospital Management Society

    The members of this committee manage the hospital affairs and ensure better facilities for the target citizens under NRHM. The Government offers financial assistance to these committees to avoid dropping the quality of patient welfare. Rogi Kalyan Samitis, on the other hand, look after the community members in all District Hospitals (DHs), Sub-District Hospitals (SDHs), Primary Health Centres (PHCs) and Community Health Centres (CHCs).

    The Village Health Sanitation and Nutrition Committee (VHSNC)

    This feature enables NRHM to ensure community empowerment and sanitation at the grassroots levels. Representatives of Panchayati Raj, ASHA and other frontline workers comprise members of VHSNC. The Government provides untied grants of ₹10,000 annually for maintaining sanitation and nutritional requirements of the eligible citizens under NRHM.

    Maternal and Infant Mortality Rates

    The JSY (Janani Suraksha Yojana) under NRHM aims to reduce maternal mortality while encouraging them to undertake government facilities during their deliveries. This scheme offers cash assistance to eligible pregnant women when they give birth under NRHM. On the other hand, the JSSK (Janani Shishu Suraksha Karyakram) enables eligible women to avail themselves free of cost deliveries, even those having a caesarean section. Apart from free drugs and diagnostics, they also receive diets, blood provisions and transportations from this scheme.

    National Mobile Medical Units (NMMUs) and National Ambulance Services (NAS)

    Under NRHM, NMMUs are established in 333 out of 672 districts. These aim at enhancing the visibility of government healthcare facilities and thereby increase the awareness of the rural population regarding healthcare importance. In addition, NAS (National Ambulance Services) enables people to receive ambulance services by simply dialling 102 or 108.

    Benefits of National Rural Health Mission

    The role of NRHM is therefore evident from the discussion above. It aims at helping the Indian citizens, especially from the vulnerable population in the country's rural regions. In this regard, one might wonder about the specific benefits of this mission. These are as follows:

    • Rural people can receive high-quality health benefits and facilities from the mission.
    • The vulnerable population can now afford treatments for communicable and non-communicable diseases.
    • Awareness among rural people has increased, and they prioritise treating diseases instantly.
    • They are now aware of the adverse effects of tobacco consumption, and the rate of tobacco users has also reduced from before.
    • Funds generated from the Indian Government have helped improve services with greater facilities and equipment.
    • Maternal and infant mortality has reduced primarily because of the contributions of this mission.
    • All initiatives under NRHM, including ASHA, Rogi Kalyan Samiti, Village Health Sanitation and Nutrition Committee (VHSNC) and others, have given opportunities to higher employment.

    In brief, the National Rural Health Mission offers benefits like improved healthcare services, better access to medical care, and stronger community health programs in rural areas.

    Who is Eligible for National Rural Health Mission (NRHM)?

    The vision of India’s National Rural Health Mission revolves around the vulnerable section of the Indian population. It serves the eight socio-economically backward states, including Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Orissa, Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal. In addition, it focuses on the rural areas of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and the North Eastern States. Rural people who are permanent residents of these areas are eligible and free to avail themselves under NRHM. The target audience of this scheme mainly includes socially backward people in rural areas, unable to access proper healthcare services at an affordable budget.

    How to Apply for the National Rural Health Mission?

    There is no specific method of applying to the National Rural Health Mission. Individuals can enjoy its benefits if they are permanent residents of areas where NRHM is functional. However, you can visit the official portal of the National Health Mission and check out all options available before applying under NRHM. Here, you will find a toll-free helpline number, where you can call and ask for assistance. Moreover, you can also check your complaint status from the options available on this page. 

    It, therefore, goes without saying that the development of NRHM is a practical initiative of the Indian Government to uplift the vulnerable groups in terms of healthcare facilities. Proper utilisation of the benefits of this mission enables eligible people to access healthcare and nursing benefits without having to move to urban areas or spending a lump sum.
