HSTP is focused on helping that state develop its HRH policies by looking at the long-term implications on the health systems. It also nudged the state to modify the existing medical service rules to support the easier implementation of HRH policies in the state.
HSTP is supporting Meghalaya and Chhattisgarh to avoid fragmentation of its policies, & synergistically develop its Specialist/Public Health Cadre Policy, Posting/Transfer Policy, & Induction Training Policy for sustainably addressing the challenge of shortage of doctors/specialists within the health system. With strong HRH policies, the state can effectively attract and retain specialists and doctors, ensuring they are placed at appropriate levels within the health system. Additionally, the training and induction policy will equip these professionals with essential skills, supporting the state's efforts to make healthcare facilities IPHS compliant in the coming years.
