Description
Bringing evidence into public health policy 2024 collects papers from the EPHP 2024 conference on how research should shape health policy in India. The head of the volume opens with a study of the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana. That national scheme, launched in 2017, gives pregnant and breastfeeding women financial support alongside care before and after birth. Its authors examine the governance structures behind the scheme.
The study draws on policy documents and interviews with officials, health workers, and beneficiaries in Kangra district. It finds that the scheme streamlined how beneficiaries are identified, widened access to care, and strengthened financial support. Stakeholders credit it with helping lower maternal deaths, though the authors note persistent problems: bureaucratic delays, uneven rollout, late payments, and trouble reaching the most marginalized women. They close by urging stronger monitoring and deeper community involvement.
