Abstract:

The overall objective of this report is to provide health care delivery system program managers with information on the level of availability of basic and essential services in health facilities and the extent of preparedness of the facilities to provide quality health services in each of the seven provinces of Nepal. Following release of the report of the 2015 Nepal Health Facility Survey, the Ministry of Health and Population identified the need to disaggregate the survey results at the province level to allow policymakers to better determine how best to allocate available resources among the provinces. This report is intended to help fill this objective.
