Examining the determinants of healthcare workforce shortages in Rajasthan is a crucial endeavor. Let’s delve into the existing data and insights to shed light on this issue.

  • Current Health Workforce Situation in India:India faces significant challenges related to its health workforce. A study estimated that the total stock of health workers in India is approximately 5.76 million, including allopathic doctors, nurses/midwives, pharmacists, dentists, and traditional medical practitioners (AYUSH). However, the active health workforce size (based on data from 2017–2018) is much lower, at around 3.12 million, with allopathic doctors and nurses/midwives constituting a substantial portion. The density of doctors and nurses/midwives per 10,000 population falls below the World Health Organization (WHO) threshold of 44.5. Distribution of health workers across states, rural-urban areas, and public-private sectors is highly skewed. A significant proportion of qualified health professionals are not actively participating in labor markets.
  • Rajasthan-Specific Insights:In Rajasthan, the situation is critical. Against the requirement of 74,884 basic doctors, approx. 50,000 doctors are available, resulting in a deficit of one-thirds of the total required strength. The shortage of healthcare providers affects healthcare outcomes and access to quality services.
  • Areas for Investment and Action: Increasing Active: Active Health Workers: India needs to invest in human resources for health (HRH) to boost the number of active health workers. Encouraging qualified professionals to join the labor market is essential. Skill-Mix Improvement: Investment in professional colleges and technical education can enhance the skill-mix of the health workforce. Addressing Inadequately Qualified Workers: Additional training and skill-building programs are necessary for already working but inadequately qualified health workers.
  • Policy Implications: Policymakers should focus on evidence-based strategies to address workforce shortages, improve distribution, and enhance the quality of healthcare services. Understanding the determinants of shortages and their impact on healthcare outcomes is crucial for informed decision-making.
