The conference noted that the health infrastructure<br />
expansion is happening rapidly without taking into<br />
consideration the capacity to fulfill human resource<br />
requirements. Further, the conference discussed on the<br />
need to take into account new issues like rural-urban<br />
migration, road accessibility and mobile coverage for<br />
infrastructure planning. Therefore, in view <strong>of</strong> these<br />
factors, the conference recommended the following:<br />
a. HIDD to review the BHU designs to make it more<br />
customized and user friendly in consultation with<br />
relevant stakeholders from the districts; and,<br />
b. To review the existing health infrastructure in the<br />
context <strong>of</strong> decentralization policy, consolidation<br />
Vs. expansion and come up with criteria for new<br />
health infrastructure for the 11th FYP.<br />
HIDD, DoMS<br />
