विस्तृत सारांश
Overview
The Bihar ASHA Incentive and Family Planning Compensation Scheme aims to strengthen maternal and child health by motivating accredited social health activists (ASHA) and encouraging couples to adopt permanent family planning methods.
Incentive for ASHA Workers
Eligible ASHA workers receive a monthly performance-linked incentive transferred directly to their bank accounts via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). The incentive is based on the fulfillment of predefined health service indicators such as antenatal care visits, institutional deliveries, and child immunization.
Compensation for Family Planning Acceptors
Couples opting for sterilization (tubectomy or vasectomy) are entitled to a one‑time cash compensation of up to ₹3,000. The amount is disbursed after the procedure is verified by the concerned Block Primary Health Centre (PHC) medical officer.
Implementation Mechanism
Applications are submitted offline at the Block PHC. The medical officer verifies eligibility, processes the claim, and forwards it to the district health office for DBT release. Regular monitoring ensures timely disbursement and transparency.
