District Health Plan Nowshera
SECTION 1: DISTRICT PROFILE
Nowshera is considered to be one of the most historical place and is also one of the largest cities of the province and lies on the Grand Trunk Road, 27 miles due east of Peshawar. It has great significance due to its strategic positioning in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as it is situated to the west of Peshawar, to the east of Swabi and Northwest Charsadda and Mardan. Thus, Nowshera is the centrally located region of the province. The name of the district is locally known as “Naw” “khaar”. The total area of the district is 1,748 km². The population density is 608 persons per square kilometer. Total agricultural area is 52,540 hectors. The main source of income of the region is agriculture. Until 1988 Nowshera was a tehsil (sub division) of Peshawar; in 1988 it became a district.Generally, winters are cold from November to February and summers are hot from June to August.
Area 1,748 km²Population 1,305,660Number of Tehsils 5
Number of Union Councils (UCs) 47TABLE 1: DISTRICT HEALTH OFFICE, NOWSHERA
Nowshera city is notable for its colonial era cantonment, which is located at 33°59'48N 72°0'47E and is home to the Pakistan Army School of Artillery, School of ASC, ASC centre, Armour centre, Armed Forces Medical Stores Depot and School of Armour. The area is the home of many Pakhtuns tribes, including the Babars, Yousafzais, Muhammadzais, Parachas, Awankhel, Kaka Khels, Mankikhel and Khattak.
FIGURE 1: MAP OF DISTRICT NOWSHERA
Historically locals use to speak Jandali (Hindko) dialect of Punjabi which is spoken in areas of Nowshera Kalan, Akora Khattak, Shaidu, Jehangira and several other villages situated along the Grand Trunk Road. After demographic changes in recent decades due to Afghan Refugees and Tribal people’s arrival, Pashto language speakers are in majority today. Urdu being National language is also spoken and understood. The major tribes in the district include the Khattak, especially their sub-tribe Akora Khattak, Babar, Kakakhel. The Kakakhels are a prominent Syed clan of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

District Health Plan Nowshera
Khattaks are the largest tribe in District Nowshera with approximately 65%-70% of total district population. Nizampur area, Khairabad, AkorraKhattak, MeraAkorra, Misribanda, Jehangira, MerraJehangira, Shaidu, Wattar, Surya Khel, Cherat area, Manki Sharif, and all surrounding areas of these villages are dominated by Khattak tribe.
Nowshera is home to big industries, such as Paper International Ltd (previously known as Adam jee paper and board mill) Amman Garh, Nizampur Cement Company (AWT), Fauji Corn Complex at Jehangira, Nowshera Sheet Glass Industries at Adamzai, Pakistan Tobacco Company at Akora Khattak, Associated Industries Ltd. at Amman Garh, Ferozsons pharmaceutical at Amman Garh, Locomotive factory at Risalpur, and Special Export Processing Zone at Risalpur. Similarly, a number of various industrial units situated at Pabbi, Risalpur, Amman Garh, Akora Khattak, Jehangira and Cherat areas are also making progress from industrial point of view.
Nowshera has an overall literacy rate of 79 percent and with female literacy at a lower level of 481 percent. In Nowshera poverty is a major concern like rest of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa where 27.982percent of the population is living below the poverty line; and ranked 28th among the cities of the country. The poverty level is relatively better since the city has an industrial base. Only 33.93 percent of the households have tap water leading to a high prevalence of water borne diseases.
The law and order situation in the district is better than rest of the province, in addition to natural disasters like floods from time to time has adversely affected health facilities especially during 2010 and 2011. The facilities were damages along with the equipment and require strengthening of routine services at the district level with additional resources to respond effectively to emergencies and disasters both natural and manmade.

SECTION 2: CURRENT SITUATION
KEY HEALTH INDICATORS
In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as in other parts of the country, health indicators are poor showing low impact of health outcomes. Women and children are particularly disadvantaged by socioeconomic and cultural barriers with estimates of only 30% of women and children having access to medical care4. The total fertility rate is high (3.9) and the CPR (19.5)5 is not rising fast enough to achieve MDG goals. The situation is further compounded by high maternal (275/100,000) and infant mortality rates (58)6 and insufficient access to quality

TABLE 2: SOURCE: *MICS 2007-08, PDHS 2012-13; (INDICATORS NOT SHOWN IN DISTRICT ARE NOT CALCULATED BY MICS/PDHS 2012-13
District Nowshera is performing better than provincial average on most of the health indicators. The coverage of fully immunized children is very high at 87 percent (provincial 52.7); ANC coverage is way better (65.2) compared to provincial average of 60.5percent, Skilled Birth Attended (SBA) deliveries is high at 55.5 percent as compared to provincial 48.3%,while the institutional deliveries are better at 53.1 percent in comparison to provincial average 40.5. The population growth rate at 2.9 is better than provincial average of 3.9 births per women. The overall scenario of health in the district needs major improvements especially in the area of maternal and child health outcomes.
DISEASE PATTERN
The burden of disease in the district shows predominance (33%) of cases due to Acute Respiratory Infections, followed by Diarrhoea/Dysentery in children under five and more than five years of age (18%) , skin diseases (7%), UTI, fever, dental carries at (5%) respectively and Hypertension at4%. The data below from the 2014 DHIS reveals the pattern of diseases in district Nowshera:

OUTREACH SERVICES
The outreach services at the district level are provided by three categories of outreach workers which include Lady Health Workers (LHWs) supervised by Lady Health Supervisors (LHS), Community Midwives (CMWs) and Vaccinators. There are a total of 758 LHWs recruited and deployed in the district. However, under the PRISM Model envisaged under the Integrated PC-1, the LHS will be responsible for administrative supervision of both LHWs and CMWs. With the available LHWs, the LHWs service coverage stands at 70 percent. In addition a total of 74 CMWs were also recruited and trained for providing midwifery services at the community level. All 74 have been deployed meaning coverage of all 47 UCs, with many UCs having more than one skilled birth attendants. Minimum requirement is one CMW for each Union Council (UC). However, with the current population size, in order to ensure full coverage additional 108 CMWs are required. The current status of the outreach workers along with the number envisaged under the integrated PC-1 and the gaps in the district are given in the table below:

District Health Plan Nowshera
The LHWs are managed by the District LHW Coordinator; under the programme a total of 758 LHWs positions are allocated for Nowshera and all stand filled. The currently working LHWs provide 70 percent population coverage, however to improve the coverage to 80 percent, as envisaged in the Integrated PC-1, additional 102 LHWs need to be recruited to improve coverage. The 34 LHSs are responsible for monitoring 758 LHWs. Thus, presently each LHS is supervising on an average 22.29 LHWs. As per standard one LHS is responsible for 25 LHWs thus there is no current gap of LHS with 70 percent coverage. However with coverage increased to 70 percent the LHS gap would still be 0.
The LHW Programme was among the three major programmes (the other two being MNCHP and EPI) integrated under the Department of Health’s recent initiative to strengthen the district health services.
Since devolution the supply of medicines and supplies to LHWs has been erratic. However, the department took a number of steps to ensure continuity of supplies to LHWs, but the situation continued to be problematic. Further, under the integrated PC-1 ample allocation has been made for procurement of necessary medicines and supplies on regular basis. In addition, provision of contraceptives other than oral such as injections and skin patch etc. has been included.
Moreover, MNCH Programme previously being vertically implemented is now integrated under the DOH integration initiative. The current requirement of CMWs as per the working LHWs is 95 whereas only 74 CMWs are deployed having a gap of 21. The programme needs to recruit and induct additional 34 CMWs for full operationalization of the PRISM model under the Integrated PC-1 with coverage of 80 percent. According to MNCH programme and DHIS-2014 data a total of 46,970 pregnancies were registered against which 8,582 women were delivered with no reported maternal death; 39 neonatal deaths were reported.

The immunization coverage in the district is high at 87 percent through long and concerted efforts in the district. The scarcity of vaccinators to perform outreach services has been addressed by training the LHWs in injection practices, who are addressing the issue by providing services to missed and default cases. The efforts are further supported through the DFID support District Conditional Grant (DCG) initiative which further provide support by placement of female health providers and vaccinators supplemented by provision of needed supplies and equipment of maternal health and immunization.

FIGURE 3: EPI COVERAGE, SOURCE DHIS -2014
However, with commitment and additional support over the past few years through the DCG grants, the percentage of fully Immunised children 0-23 months in the district has risen substantially i.e. 87 percent, way better than the provincial average of 52.7 percent. The TT2 coverage of CBA reporting live births is only 39 percent way below the provincial average of 57 percent7.In order to meet the targets set under the HSS, a lot of effort need to be put for improving immunization coverage for both children 0-23 months and also women of child bearing age to meet the MDG targets. The district needs to mobilize all available resources both human and in kind through concerted efforts for improving EPI service delivery especially in the hard to reach rural areas through outreach services.

TABLE 5: DISTRICT DHIS REPORT 2014
As per the integrated PC-1, with the induction of additional LHWs, the coverage will be increased to 80 percent; however, in order to improve coverage to 100 percent for immunization, 52 vaccinators will be required in LHWs uncovered areas. These steps are expected to increase the routine immunization coverage to more than 90 percent.
Additionally, it is also envisaged as per the cMYP (Comprehensive Multi Year Plan) for Immunization that these workers will also be involved in the special Polio and measles campaigns currently in practice to eradicate these diseases.
PRIMARY HEALTHCARE
In the district Primary Health Care level services are provided through a network of health facilities which includes RHC, MCH centres, CDs, BHUs and Sub-Health Centres. The remaining higher level facilities are being used for referral services such as Civil, THQ and

There are a total of 63 health facilities in the public sector in the district, which include a teaching hospital providing specialized care and one District Headquarter Hospital, 5 Civil Hospitals all serve as referral facilities. There are 5 RHCs in the district having 90% staff in place, while 38 BHUs are providing both preventive and curative services. In addition to above, maternal and child health services are provided through 3 MCH centres and general outpatient services from 10 CDs with an average of 61.61 patients /clients / facility per day.
HUMAN RESOURCE
There are a total of 1643 positions in various categories (details given in table 4) at the primary health care facility level. However, against all the sanctioned posts, currently only 254 positions being lying vacant. The vacancies are against the positions of doctors, senior and junior clinical and PHC technicians and others. This situation is liable to have adverse implications for service delivery in the district. The details of category wise vacant positions against sanctioned posts are given in table below:

In addition, services are also provided through vertical programmes including Malaria, TB, and Hepatitis. Most of these preventive programmes, with the exception of HIV/AIDS, have historically been funded federally and implemented provincially. However, in the post devolution scenario, these programmes are provincially funded with large number of interventions at the primary level i.e. preventive, diagnostic and treatment.However, in compliance with the HSS, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa took initiative to integrate and consolidate three of the nine vertical programmes and also integrating nutrition and family planning interventions for bringing in economies of scale as a first step and secondly to improve coverage of MNCH, Nutrition and family planning services especially at the PHC level with standardized and quality services. The integrated programmes include LHW

Programme, MNCH and EPI. In addition, the province also developed a Minimum Health Services Delivery Package (MHSDP) which includes a comprehensive set of services to be delivered at the primary health care level.
As per the DHIS during 2014 there were 14,271 suspected malaria cases were reported from the district. The district statistics for malaria over the last two years are given in the table below:

The Malaria Programme has staff deployed at the district level, who is exclusively for malaria related diagnostic activities. However all positions are regular with no project related staff positions under the programme PC-1.
At the district level the programme focuses on both detection and treatment through TB DOTS. All health facilities at the primary and secondary level with exception of sub health centres and civil dispensaries offer sputum microscopy for TB, while advanced diagnostics are offered by category C and D hospitals. In addition, the programme interventions are also supported under the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB and Malaria. The services under the programme are provided through the district primary health care facilities. There is no staff exclusively designated at the district level for programme implementation.

all five distinct types of hepatitis viruses, A-E are prevalent. The current estimated prevalence of hepatitis B is 0.7852 Million and for hepatitis C is 1.1778 million8.
In the district Nowshera 53 percent of the children aged 12-23 months are fully immunized against the 7 EPI diseases. At the District EPI Staff includes one District Coordinator and 69vaccinators. In addition, 9 staff is working as the district field supervisors. The Health Department has also trained 685 LHWs on injection practices at the community level with the objective to meet the outreach staff shortages and enhancing EPI coverage by building and enhancing skills of the available staff in the district.

District Health Plan Nowshera
SECTION 3: ISSUES
The District Nowshera is faced with a number of challenges in meeting the targets set under the Health Sector Strategy of the province. The key overarching challenges outlined in the provincial health strategy are also found to be the main challenges in district setup. These are described briefly in the lines below:
In line with the province the household out-of-pocket (OOP) spending remains the main source for financing healthcare. There is minimal social protection and a lack of access to social protection, given a majority of the population is below the poverty line, the cost of healthcare can result in families becoming completely impoverished.
Low level of Women and Children’s Health Status
Women and children are particularly disadvantaged by socioeconomic and cultural barriers with estimates of only 3010 percent of them having access to medical care. The total fertility rate is high but less than provincial 3.9 and the contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) at 20.611 percent is not rising fast enough to achieve the MDG targets. Owing to high TFR, there is high maternal and infant mortality and available services are insufficient to meet the challenges posed by a fast growing population.
Insufficient Provision of High Quality Public Health Care Services
Staff shortages and non-availability of essential medicines is common across all facilities contributing towards underutilisation of services12. The quality of services provided by public health care providers is variable. There is lack of capacity in planning and implementation at district level to respond to emergencies, epidemics and disasters appropriately. The Minimum Health Service Delivery Package and Primary and Secondary Health quality Standards for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, approved by the province provide the impetus to bring quality in service delivery. However, the understanding is lacking about quality assurance mechanisms and a comprehensive capacity building effort is needed to improve the situation.
The available staff and skill mix is inadequate13 to meet the quality standards set out in the MHSDP. The capacities are deficient all across i.e. from oversight to service delivery. The absence of management skills is a major hurdle to improve quality of health services available to the population.
In addition, infrastructure has not been at pace with the population growth due to little or no investments in health. The already run down health facilities have inadequate infrastructure as per standards required under the MHSDP.
Further, the supplies and equipment position in the district is not enough to implement the MHSDP. The procurement planning and logistics management capacities are non-existent with the result that many a times the facilities are faced with medicine and supplies stock outs.
There are only a small number of ambulances available, often without drivers and sufficient funds to meet POL and repair requirements. The situation is of serious concern as demand

15
District Health Plan Nowshera
for emergency services has increased due to increased security risks, bomb blasts resulting in mass casualties, and the increase in road traffic accidents (15,733 road traffic reported by DHIS 2014) while services for rehabilitation are insufficient.
Low Coverage and Access to Health Services
A significant number of people, particularly in remote rural areas have difficulty accessing primary healthcare. Given that when the primary health care system was established in the country14 it detailed that there should be I BHU per Union Council and RHC for 3-4 UCs or population of 100,000 for rural population. According to this formula there should be 12 RHCs and 47 BHUs. There are however only 4 RHCs, 38 BHUs, 3 MCH centres and 10 dispensaries in the District.
As per DHO record, by 2014, there are 758 posts of the LHWs against which all 758 Lady Health Workers (LHWs) are currently working in the district providing 70% coverage against the 80% target of integrated PC-1.By 2014 there were 74 CMWs students trained under the Maternal and Neonatal, Child Health (MNCH) programme, of which all 74 had been deployed to their villages in the district. Keeping in view the limited number of LHWs, CMWs and their placement, implementation of Prism model will be easy to implement in the district.
Weak Referral System
The interventions focusing on women of child bearing age and children under 5 years, which are introduced under integrated PC-1 for nutrition and maternal and child interventions requires strong linkages between the outreach workers, PHC facilities and at secondary level hospitals. However, at present referral system is weak and this failure can be attributed to lack of referral protocols, health worker attitudes, weak organisational and functional linkages between different level of services and ambulance services.
Improving Access for Health Care for Women and Children
The Pakistan Demographic and Health survey (PDHS) of 2007 has established a Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) for the province of 275 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. Most of these deaths are caused by postpartum haemorrhage, puerperal sepsis or due to Eclampsia.
FIGURE 10: MICS 2007-8 (DISTRICT) AND PDHS 2012-13 (PROVINCIAL)
The provincial neonatal mortality rate is 41, infant mortality rate is 58 and under-five mortality rate is 70 per 1000 live births. The attendance of skilled birth attendants (SBAs) at delivery has increased significantly from 28 % in the MICS 2001 to 41% in the MICS 2008.

Province vs. District Nowshera
Provincial Nowshera
District Health Plan Nowshera
At the district level the key indicators are substantially lower than the provincial average such as ANC coverage is 65.2 compared to provincial figure of 60.5, the SBA attended deliveries are 55.5 higher than the provincial avg. 48.3 and institutional deliveries are 53.3 percent compared to provincial average of 40.5. The CPR of Nowshera is relatively better at 20.6 percent in comparison to 19.5 of the province. The fertility rate of the district is much better at 2.9 than the provincial figure of 3.915.
Major challenge is to expand maternal health services to RHCs, as Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care (EmONC) services are available at only 54 percent of hospitals. Nowshera compared to other districts has a better place of female workers in the rural areas and situation evident from better health indicators.
Family Planning or CPR: The CPR for Nowshera was measured at 20.6 percent in the MICS 2008 and is somewhat higher than the provincial 19.5% measured by the same survey seven years previously. The CPR though low, but the total fertility rate at 2.9 is way better than the provincial figure and is indicative of the fact that the people are using some sort of contraception however it is not being fully reported. The situation can be attributed to high literacy rate among the population. However the CPR is not rising fast enough to achieve the national MDG target of 55 percent as only 20 percent of women are using modern methods (sterilisation, pill, IUD, injection, condom).
Reducing the Prevalence of Communicable Diseases
Like rest of the country, the situation of communicable diseases is among important health problems in Nowshera. According to DHIS reports for 2014, the common causes of death and illness are; Acute Respiratory Tract Infections, Pneumonia, Diarrhoeal Diseases, Tuberculosis and Vaccine Preventable Infections. Epidemic prone diseases such as Meningococcal Meningitis, Cholera, Hepatitis and Viral Haemorrhagic Fevers are also prominent health threats
Acute Respiratory Infections and Diarrhoea: Pneumonia remains a leading cause of child mortality accounting for a quarter of all post neonatal deaths with most deaths caused by a failure to seek treatment at a health facility. In Nowshera18467 cases were reported in the PHC health facilities during 2014.Diarrhoea accounted for over 98142 of all children under and greater than 5 years of age in the district.
Polio: Pakistan is one of the four remaining countries, where polio is endemic; there were 306 confirmed cases of Polio in 2014of which more than 90 percent were reported from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. By March 2015, twenty nine cases had been reported from Nowshera there has been no case of polio reported during 2014.
Other important communicable diseases are Tuberculosis (TB), Hepatitis and Malaria. Nowshera is high prevalence district for Malaria and during 2014,a total of 14,271 suspected cases were reported by DHIS. There were 2,057 suspected TB and 1153 suspected Hepatitis cases reported by DHIS.
Health Sector Coordination
There is weak coordination between different sectors and stakeholders working in the areas related to health and responsible for improving the health status of the population of the
15 MICS 2006-07
17
District Health Plan Nowshera
district. The district lacks the information related to private sector, non-governmental organization and other stakeholders involved in service delivery. There is a dire need to improve coordination among various actors for improvements in health outcomes. Moreover, the coordination within the health sector also leaves much to be desired.
Within the context, challenge is to establish effective coordination and collaborating mechanisms to maximize results and systems that ensure greater transparency and accountability.
No Linkage between Resource Allocation and Disease Burden
Disease burden is not taken into account while allocating resources in budgetary process. Preparation of budget is historical and input based with 10% incremental increase every year. DHP attempts to link resource allocation and disease burden on development side; defining outputs and allocating resources; however, this would be a major challenge to shift on recurrent side.
Lack of Synergies with Private Sector
Presently, there are no formal linkages between public and private sector. PPP Act is enacted which provides opportunities for collaboration between public and private sector, challenge would be to identify areas where PPP proposals can be developed and implemented. There is a need to focus on private sector and development of effective linkages with private sector for proposed intervention such as setting up of Hepatitis Filter Clinics and TB referral for MDR cases is identified as major challenge. Another key challenge in such PPP models is clarifying roles and responsibilities of partners and to develop capacity to manage contract.
Insufficient community involvement
Some formal community involvement mechanism in form of community health committee of LHW program and Community Support Group at Facility level by KPHI exists. Both mechanisms represent community involvement for need identification at community and facility levels. DHP proposes establishment of management committee at facility level headed by a community member involving community in decision making processes. Health plans will be developed at facility and union council level and these plans will feed into DHP. In this context, making community health committees functional (majority are not functional) and establishing PCMCs and building capacity of these committees for desired roles/responsibilities is an uphill task. Apart from community involvement at community and facility levels mechanism to involve community in decision making processes at district level needs to be developed.
Risk of Blood Borne Diseases
There is the increased risk of blood-borne diseases from unsafe blood transfusion practices in public and private health facilities. Lack of mechanisms for regulating ensuring rational use of blood are major contributors to transmission of major infectious disease like HIV, Hepatitis B and C, STIs etc.
Weaknesses in Human Resource Management
The district employs more than1647 employees, with 15.42 percent sanctioned positions lying vacant. Other than an administrative superintendent, there is no designated personnel
18
District Health Plan Nowshera
section in the DHO office, there are lack of HR guidelines, recruitment planning and there is obvious lack of capacity to manage core human resource management functions.
While the working of district health sector is very dependent on the calibre of its staff, there is insufficient planning and budgeting to fill vacancies when they arise. There are no forecasts of the skills required to provide high quality services and to staff new facilities and hospitals. Little attention is given to selection, managing for performance and providing on-going training & skill development. There is no human resource management information system in place despite the fact there are more than 1457 staff working under the DHO. The lack of HR database makes it impossible to track employees and their performance.
However, under the Integrated PC-1, the department envisages to strengthen the district management both through placement of additional qualified and skilled manpower, but also improved performance monitoring by linking it to regular reviews at the provincial level.
Shortage of Staff Prepared to Work in the Peripheral Health Facilities
Although there are adequate numbers of post graduate qualified specialists for government facilities, there is an overall shortage of specialists especially at the district level due to the unwillingness of staff to serve in remote areas, resulting in vacant positions.
Shortage of Nurses and Paramedics available for Public Service Delivery
Like the rest of the province, there are acute shortages of nurses and paramedics in the public sector facilities e.g. there are only 34 sanctioned posts of nurses in the district against 107 positions of doctors. According to International standards the nurse doctor ratio should be 4:1. As per the recommended criteria there are 394 nurses required to provide services, and situation of other categories of health workers too is not much different.
There is no planning and forecasting mechanism in place to calculate the needs of paramedics in the district and then plan accordingly to meet the gaps.
Issues in On-going Skills Training and Professional Development
At present there is no planning and allocation for capacity building of the staff working in the district. The in-service training mechanism was introduced in the 1990’s and was provided through the PHDC and DHDCs is only partially functional. There are no formal policies, national standards or guidelines to ensure that health care providers have up-to-date skills and knowledge. There are also no programmes for continuing medical education and systems of re-accreditation for doctors, nurses and paramedics.
At present, all training activities are conducted either by the vertical programmes or the by UN and International NGOs through various projects. NO training need assessment has ever been conducted to identify the skill gaps and neither a training plan prepared which addresses the district gaps. Most trainings conducted are adhoc and without any linkages with the ground realities. Also there is no mechanism to gauge the quality of trainings and its effects on the service delivery.
There is specially lack of professional training and development opportunities for medical and paramedic staff in peripheral areas and a lack of training for the provision of medical care at the primary health care level. Unclear Roles and Responsibilities
Management of health services is divided amongst DHO, MS and KPPHI with ambiguities in reporting mechanisms. BHUs are managed by DSM of KPHI whereas other Primary Care
19
District Health Plan Nowshera
Facilities e.g. MCH centres, CDs and RHCs are under administrative control of DHO. In secondary care facilities civil hospital and Tehsil Head Quarter Hospital, and category C and D are managed by DHO, whereas DHQ is responsibility of Medical Superintendent of the Headquarter hospitals. DSM reports to PPHI and is accountable for its performance to KPHI provincial office and MS is accountable to DGHS; under local government Act, MS will continue to report to DGHS office instead of DHO.
With so many different channels of hierarchy and with no sharing of information between various entities at the district level, it is imperative that the coordination linked with improved service delivery outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Inadequate Management Capacity
DHO has inadequate management staff to carry out management function effectively i.e. there are no qualified persons to conduct financial and procurement management functions. In addition, there has been no mid-level management trainings for staffs at various levels impacting quality of service delivery. Most staffs in absence of an organized in-service training programme lack the necessary updated skills required to improve quality and continuum of care. The key skills lacking at the district management level include areas particularly health management, change and result based management, financial management, information systems and procurement and logistics.
Lack of Results Based Decision Making
There is a dearth of management related information at district level. Information collected is not being used sufficiently to inform decision making, leading to a reduced incentive to improve data quality. The information even when collected is hardly ever analysed by either the district or the DoH to inform policy and planning. There is a District Health Information System (DHIS) that has been developed and rolled out to the PHC and secondary levels, however information collected is not quality assured as per standards and accords low accountability for performance and duty of care (within the district, to the DoH and to the people).
Poor Health Management
Performance management is annual, confidential and used for promotion purposes, in addition, the results are not shared with staff or used for setting targets or improving skills. Capacity to effective health management is compromised by weak Monitoring and Evaluation systems in districts.
Inadequate Financial Accountability and Internal Controls
There is absence of a comprehensive performance evaluation system in place both at the provincial and district level. The system in place is very subjective and not linked to a reward mechanism. There is lack of incentives for professionals to improve the quality of their work. The Performance review is annual using a document known as ACR (annual confidential report), confidential and used for promotion purposes only. In addition, the results are not shared with staff or used for setting targets and timelines for improving skills and performance. Capacity to effective health management is compromised by weak Monitoring and Evaluation systems in districts.
Compliance to Notified Standard by HCC
20
District Health Plan Nowshera
Health Care Commission which has replaced HRA has been mandated to regulate both public and private sector. Public sector health faculties will be required to meet standards notified by the HCC and putting in quality assurance mechanism for complying with standards will be difficult challenge ahead for district.
However, in the absence of a mechanism for orientation of district facility level staff on quality standards, availability of protocols at all levels and absence of a quality monitoring system, it is not surprising that compliance to notified standards is almost non-existent.
Inadequate Drug Control
In district there is only one sanctioned position of drug inspector who is responsible for implementation of Drug Act at the district level and number need to be increased for better drug control.
Inter-Sectoral Coordination
The lack of collaboration among the relevant departments (Health, Food, Agriculture, Public Health Engineering Department and Local Government) has resulted in implementation lacunae. The area of Water and Sanitation is also neglected by the health sector. No elaborate policies and strategies prevail to address and implement the standards for drinking water. Challenge is to put in place inter-sectoral coordination and collaboration mechanisms for ensuring compliance to notified minimum standards.
SECTION 4: ROLLING OUT MHSDP
21
District Health Plan Nowshera
The Department of Health developed and approved a Minimum Health Service Delivery package (MHSDP) for the Primary Health Care level to standardize services and to ensure quality of services. The MHSDP is being rolled out at the district level through operationalization of Integrated PC-1. The MHSDP sets out certain infrastructure and human resource requirements to implement the services at the PHC level. However, the current status of health services as highlighted in the section on situation analysis clearly identify the gaps starting from infrastructure, supplies and equipment, human resources and staff skills to name a few.
The roll out of health sector strategy of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and achievement of desired outcomes in envisaged through a number of initiatives aimed at increasing health services coverage such as implementation of MHSDP and roll out of integrated PC-1. The investments in the infrastructure at the primary health care level have been far and few over the years. However, if the department is to improve service delivery to the population, substantial improvements and renovations will need to be carried out at the facility level as per the standards set out in the MHSDP.
INFRASTRUCTURE
The operationalization of MHSDP lays out certain infrastructure and workforce requirements that are mandatory for providing the desired set of services envisaged in the package. The assessment of the facilities in the DI Khan District revealed a number of gaps against the standards defined in the package ranging from lack of boundary wall to nonexistence of waiting area.
In addition, the current human resource and available skill mix too is insufficient against the set standards. The district HR review revealed that there are critical positions that are required for delivery of services in addition to the infrastructure requirements. The details of the infrastructure and human resource gaps with cost implications are given below.

HUMAN RESOURCE
The Department of Health developed and approved a Minimum Health Service Delivery (MHSDP) for the primary health care level to standardize services and to ensure quality of services. The MHSDP is being rolled out at the district level through operationalization of Integrated PC-1. The MHSDP sets out certain infrastructure and human resource requirements to implement the services at the PHC level. The currently available staff positions, not completely filled, are insufficient to meet either the standards or the needs of the facilities. Following graph shows the human resource requirements needed at the three levels i.e. RHC, BHU to fully implement the package at the PHC level (details in Annexure I and II).

COSTING OF THE HR & INFRASTRUCTURE FOR ROLLING MHSDP IN 50% OF PHC FACILITIES
The current available resources do not cover the estimated costs for meeting MHSDP requirements. This means that the government will have to increase the resource base to fund the GAP and the district will prioritize the activities in a phased approach to cover and fill in these gaps over the period of the DHP.

FIGURE 11: PROPOSED STRUCTURE IN INTEGRTAED PC-1
District Health Plan Nowshera
PRIORITIZATION OF OUTCOMES
The HSS KP and IDS identifies a number of critical areas for action to improve health status in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. HSS and IDS were developed through consultative process, and peer reviewed by external experts and Development Partners. The priority areas for health from the HSS and the IDS have been formulated into five health outcomes, budgeted in the MTBF.
These are:
Outcome 1: Enhancing coverage and access to essential health services especially for the poor and vulnerable.
Outcome 2: A measurable reduction in morbidity and morbidity due to common diseases especially among vulnerable segments of the population.
Outcome 3: Improved human resource management. Outcome 4: Improved governance and accountability. Outcome 5: Improved regulation and quality assurance.
PRIORITIZATION OF OUTPUTS
For the purpose of alignment of DHP with HSS & IDS the outcomes are kept the same, however, outputs given in HSS KP under each outcome are prioritized for district through a consultative process. Alignment of DHP with HSS & IDS, rolling out of integrated PC-1 and MHSDP were key considerations of this prioritization process. Relevance of HSS/IDS outputs in district setup was also taken into account. In addition, as per reflection in the provincial MTBF statement 50% of the facilities have been taken for rolling out of MHSDP and Integrated PC-1; this also takes into account the cost implications for the Government in taking forward these initiatives. During this process outputs were;
1. HSS/IDS output is prioritized as district output; however with different set of activities.2. HSS/IDS output is rephrased or adjusted according to district need3. HSS output is not prioritized and new outputs are identified for districts.
Key indicators are targets for each outcome are given in M &E framework.
25
District Health Plan Nowshera
SECTION 6: OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK
PLANNING STRUCTURE
Through district health planning outcomes and outputs are linked with implementation activities describing timelines and through identified inputs. This provides basis and justification for annual budgetary requests and allocations. This implies that the DHP is not a one-off activity but is repeated annually.
District Health Plan provides a midterm vision for the district with broadly defined objectives, targets, timelines and guidance for implementation. The DHP provides a prioritized list of outcomes and outputs organized in a timeline in the Operational Framework. The targets and the indicators for implementation of the Framework and its monitoring are given in the Result Framework, while the cost implications of the plan are reflected in the Detailed Cost Estimates Sections. The plan proposes an integrated planning and M&E system that can support implementation of DHP proposed in M&E section.
The analysis of the log-frame reveals that majority of activities would require technical inputs in one or the other form. This is an uphill task and implementation would not be possible without a dedicated management structure and well planned technical support.
IMPLEMENTATION STRUCTURE
Implementation structure is critical to ensure the following three essentials in the context of DHP.
Annual Planning: All interventions are clearly defined, prioritized and appropriately sequenced ensuring synergy, complementarity, manageability of envisaged change, implementation capacity and resources availability. This has to be reviewed and adjusted every year depending on implementation pace, resources availability and to accommodate change in strategies. This annual planning has to be aligned with planning process of the district.
Detailed Planning: Necessary information and details including concept note, basic design features, resources requirement would be required for preparation of budget proposals for securing non-development allocations and PC I for development expenditure.
ROLLING PLAN MODEL
Rolling Planning is an established mechanism to implement long and medium term vision through short term implementation plans aligned with the budgetary system of the country. A simpler version of this planning tool that provides prospect of extensive implementation review to develop plan for the next year based on lessons learned during previous year will work in the indicated planning environment. As proposed in the model given with the Operational Framework, the plan for a particular year will contain three lists of projects/ proposals considered necessary for the implementation of DHP indicated below:
List A: Projects/ Proposals where implementation details have been agreed/ approved List B: Projects/ Proposals where implementation details have to be worked/ agreed List C: Projects/ proposals where conceptual development has to be progressed
The authority responsible to coordinate DHP implementation will continue work on all three lists with objective to complete projects/proposals in list A, move projects/ proposals in list C to list B and those in list B to list A in next year’s version of rolling plan. As years advance,
26
District Health Plan Nowshera
the items in lower level list gradually move to upper level depending upon planning level achieved. This process continues till such time the component agreed in strategy is either implemented or deleted from the list due to lowering priority compared to other pressing needs.

ROLLING PLAN MODEL
The annual rolling planning tool that provides a flexible planning mechanism is best for DHP implementation. A simpler version of rolling plan is suggested to be adopted that provides prospect of extensive implementation review during a particular year and developing plan for the next year based on lessons learned during past year will work in the indicated planning environment. As proposed in the model given below, the plan for a particular year will contain three lists of projects/ proposals considered necessary for the implementation of DHP indicated as below.
List A: Projects/ Proposals where implementation details have been agreed/ approvedList B: Projects/ Proposals where implementation details have to be worked/ agreedList C: Projects/ proposals where conceptual development has to be processed
DHT responsible to coordinate DHP implementation will continue work on all three lists with objective to complete projects/proposals in list A, move projects/ proposals in list C to list B and those in list B to list A in next year’s version of rolling plan. As years advance, the items in lower level list gradually move to upper level depending upon planning effort. This process continues till such time components agreed in DHP is either implemented or deleted from the list due to dropping priority compared to other pressing needs of the sector.

Implementation of these activities will require considerable amounts of investment by the government and development partners in the public health sector of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. A costing model was designed to meet the needs of the costing the activities under the plan. The model uses a combination of input and out-put based costing methods, where the former is used to determine indirect costs and the later to determine direct costs.
79% of the DHP cost is covered by integrated PC-1 and the remaining 21% gap can be covered from District Management Plan as mentioned a lump sum figure in integrated PC-1.
It is estimated that a total of PKR 1331 Million excluding inflation will be required to implement the District Health Plan over the period of 3 years. This section of the document presents the summary of costs required to implement the activities as defined under the District Health Plan.
Major investment is required for achieving outcomes 1 and 4 which comprise approximately 95% of the total costs of the District Health Plan; these two outcomes will enhance and improve the access to essential health services for poor and Improved Governance and Accountability hence bringing in a paradigm shift in major portion of resource allocation from employees related expenses to services.
