This study was mainly undertaken to support the backward district of Karnataka i.e. all the 8 Norther Karnataka districts. Due to high Maternal, Infant and Child Mortality. Our study focused on availability, accessibility and coverage of basic health care facilities for under privileged people of the society. In the study we mapped all the health care facilities from grass root levels to higher levels. Front line workers like ANM/ASHS/LHA/MO were interviewed using a well drafted questionnaire. The question on human resources, infrastructure,services provided, equipments, medicines, government schemes, beneficiary of the schemes, budget etc was captured. Also, to understand the quality of the service and the knowledge of the care provider a detailed quality assessment study was done. Analysis were made, reports were submitted to Government of Karnataka.
