Telangana Govt announces incentives for normal deliveries to government hospitals staff
Hyderabad, Aug.5 (Maxim News): In a bid to encourage the normal deliveries in government hospitals, the Telangana government on Friday announced ‘Team Based Incentives’ of Rs. 3,000 per delivery to the staff and field level workers of government hospitals who perform more normal deliveries when compared to cesarean sections.
The incentive to government staff per delivery will be given this year (2022-23) if they perform more than the normal deliveries that were performed during 2021-22 in the same government hospitals where they are employed.
According to the G.O (Rt No.486), the State government said the optimum level of normal deliveries as per World Health Organisation (WHO) norms is about 85 per cent. Therefore, if a public health facility has exceeded the 85 percent threshold of normal deliveries in 2021-22, then 85 per cent of normal deliveries will be taken as benchmark for these facilities for the year 2022-23.
