5. Major Constraints for MNCH in the
Country: Health care services (1)
• Low utilization of cost-effective public health interventions (22%*)
• Poor quality of care in both public and private sectors
* CDHS 2005
14
5. Major Constraints for MNCH in the Country: Human resources development (2)
• Inadequate capacity: training and personnel management and leadership in M&E, and evidence-based, delegated decision making
• Poor attitudes and practices among service providers in communicating with consumers
• Mal-distribution of qualified staff, especially shortage of trained midwives
• Low salaries and lack of incentives to work in remote areas
* CDHS 2005
15
5. Major Constraints for MNCH in the Country: Financing (3)
• High prices, limited access to essential services among the poor, especially to referral hospitals
• Irregular and inadequate flow of funds to service delivery
• Limited coordination on external financing in the sector

Challenges ahead
• We know the problems and the technical interventions, so how do we plan for implementation and scale-up?
• What are realistic targets for the short- and long-term?
• To get impact, how do we ensure quality and access to health services, esp. by the poor?
• What resources are needed to meet the MDGs? How can we spend wisely now?
19
• Three scenarios:
– Ambitious (optimal policies, maximum coverage targets, full intervention package)
– Middle (lower coverage targets, low-cost key interventions)
– Business as usual (no changes – will get nowhere)
• Time pressing and enormous things to do!
Challenges ahead
20
Recommended Interventions (1): System-Wide
– Strengthen the implementation of CPA Guidelines, including HR, supplies and equipment as well as development of clinical management guidelines for maternal and reproductive health, newborn care and child health.
– Commence implementation of Midwifery Review recommendations: pre and in-service training, midwife coverage, staff competency
– Scale up implementation of the 12 Child Survival Score Card interventions, with special attention to IMCI, Nutrition and training for Paediatric Care (including neo-natal) at Referral Hospitals. (Community, HC, RH. Funding needed for scale-up and training).
– Expand BCC activities for exclusive and complimentary feeding, increase the number of Baby Friendly Hospital and Communities and re-enforce Sub-decree of marketing on IYCF products.
– Expand of CBD and long term method to reduce unwanted pregnancy, and promotion of safe abortion through training, equipment and supplies (DfID supported implementation commencing)
21
Recommended Interventions (2): Disrtict with special needs
• Strengthen MCH continuum of care (ANC, delivery, new born care and post partum care) at community, and Health Center Level and RHs (CPA2 strengthening, with emphasis on improving quality of EOC and pediatric care), in districts where birth assisted by trained health personnel is low. (10 GAVI/HSS supported ODs. CPA strengthening still needs funding).
• Establish maternity waiting house with benefits (food, travel cost) at RH’s in remote districts.(UNFPA currently supporting Stung Treng.)
• Extend equity fund supported safe motherhood in districts where birth assisted by trained health personnel is low. (MoH/HSSP expansion of HEF planned)
• Prioritize remote facilities for PMG/Performance based incentives expansion (expected 2008-09)
22
Recommended Interventions (3): Funding/Implentation Gaps Identified
• CPA strengthening system-wide, as well as for EOC and pediatric care focus of the the 10 RH’s serving the GAVI/HSS supported districts for MCH Continuum of Care.
• IMCI, Nutrition and capacities strengthening for Paediatric Care.• Exclusive and complimentary feeding promotion; IYCF re-
enforcement.• Maternity Waiting Houses
23
Next Steps• Costing of priority interventions, commitment to fund and identification of
external support where necessary: JAPR process • Identification of priority ODs for CSS, MPA and CPA strengthening using
CDHS, HIS, and other appropriate data sources• Identification of HR, supplies and equipment gaps in health facilities for
MPA and CPA implementation through facilities checklists distributed with AOP Guidelines.
• In AOPs at all levels, increase planned expenditure on the 5 HS Priorities, including the interventions recommended here by 20%.
• Ensure quarterly monitoring and reporting of AOP implementation at all levels of the system, with special focus on RH’s and OD’s.
• Align interventions with existing MoH policy and projects, especially for those focused on districts with special needs (GAVI, GFATM, HSSP, Contracting, HEF, CSS Costing etc.)
