3 Family Health Shocks and Vulnerability of Children Dungarpur, located in the southernmost tip of Rajasthan, is one of the least developed districts in the state and India at large. A dismal health infrastructure coupled with limited health awareness has resulted in an abysmal health status for the local population. The Infant Mortality Rate of 63 deaths 1 and Under Five Mortality Rate of 81 deaths 2 per 1,000 live births, are both worse than the state average. Communicable and chronic diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria and HIV/ AIDS are widespread. Qualified doctors are only consulted as a last resort - if at all. The profound belief in faith healers, a flourishing local market of quacks and private health clinics 3, and the prolonged time involved in seeking appropriate treatment, has led to spiraling medical expenses for poor households. A Save the Children initiated study found that as much as 30 per cent of loans taken by poor households are used for health purposes 4. As parents become ill and are unable to work, medical costs escalate and households adopt various coping strategies that impact children negatively, as well as affect their long-term development opportunities. 1 Annual Health Survey Rajasthan Factsheet State IMR is Ibid. State U5MR is There are limited private medical clinics in Dungarpur. People travel a few hours to the neighboring state of Gujarat or to the district of Udaipur in Rajasthan 4 Kaarak, 2010, Ultra poor Scoping & Vulnerability study: insights from Dungarpur The Community Health Protection Programme in Dungarpur 3
4 The most common coping strategy is to take children out of school to be at home and help with domestic chores or to send them for labour 5. As a response to the trend observed, Save the Children decided to introduce a community based health protection programme, with the objective of exploring the possibility of social insurance providing an opportunity for mitigating the adverse impact of health stress and shock on children. In the process of outlining the initiative, it became clear that the intervention would only be successful if developed as an integrated package of services, including prevention and consultation, thus focusing on health more widely. As a result of this thought process, the Community Health Protection Programme (CHPP) was initiated in Illness of father leads to children dropping out of school Meena, Gita and their younger brother Kanu have dropped out of school. The two girls have joined their mother as construction workers in Gujarat, while Kanu stays at home to look after his father and a younger sister, and also manages household chores. Their father is suffering from TB and is no longer able to work. 5 Save the Children, 2012, Child Poverty in Dungarpur 4 The Community Health Protection Programme in Dungarpur
5 Objectives and Key Components of CHPP The aim of CHPP is to protect low-income households against specific health risks through a package of community based health interventions. The CHPP uses the community based insurance model, which emphasizes the active participation of community members in the insurance process to build community ownership, solidarity and self-management to ensure sustenance of the initiative. A key actor in the project is the local NGO PEDO (People s Education and Development Organisation), which has developed an extensive network of Self-Help Groups (SHGs) in the district 6. Since the SHGs are organized into micro credit federations, they are better experienced at handling finances. With this backdrop, federations provide a wellfunctioning platform to build CHPP around. Uplift, a Pune based organisation experienced in health protection, is providing technical guidance on the modalities of CHPP. Two feasibility studies were carried out, followed by a scoping study in July 2011 to assess the health care conditions in Dungarpur. The latter also evaluated the problems faced by PEDO SHG members in accessing health care, their health related expenses and capacity and interest to pay a premium. The findings indicated that CHPP would be a viable option for improving health risk management within the project area. Three PEDO federations, i.e Mada, Jhonthri and Genji, covering 550 SHGs across 110 villages, were then selected for the intervention. 6 PEDO has been active in the field of microfinance in all five blocks in Dungarpur for almost 30 years.

His three sons study in the local school and his wife Kamlesh is an SHG member. The couple is enrolled in the CHPP. When Raju met with a road accident and landed up with a fractured leg, he was referred to the empaneled hospital Bhagwan Mahavir in Dungarpur where he was hospitalized for four days. He later claimed Rs 12,000 for his complete treatment through CHPP. Kamlesh is happy that the insurance amount received was timely and very helpful at such a critical time. If there was no help, we would have had to send the boys to work, she says. 8 The Community Health Protection Programme in Dungarpur
9 Frequently Asked Questions on CHPP Is CHPP relevant when there is a government run health insurance scheme? In Rajasthan, the state government re-launched the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojna (RSBY) in 2013, which aims to provide protection to BPL (Below Poverty Line) households as well a few other specific categories of informal workers 7 incurring financial liabilities from health related shocks through cashless insurance. Beneficiaries under RSBY are entitled to hospitalization coverage of up to Rs 30,000 in a year; however, this is restricted to empaneled hospitals and limited to five members per family. The scheme is not fully functional in the state yet, and is also not performing well in many places. Fake claims, corruption, non-functioning of swipe machines installed in hospitals and lack of awareness among the community are the key problems observed. Even if the performance of RSBY improves, CHPP continues to be relevant for the following reasons: 1) CHPP reaches remote villages and hamlets and members value the comprehensive package that is being offered in areas where health services are scarce. 2) There is follow up with hospitals to ensure that CHPP members are being taken care of properly. 3) CHPP is community owned and over time they can alter the modalities to respond to changing needs of the members if they wish to. 4) CHPP can also be used in conjunction with RSBY so that members can avail of higher insurance coverage if needed. 5) Under CHPP, any number of family members can avail services in all hospitals and clinics. RSBY is just an insurance and does not address the wider problems of health care that people face in remote areas of Dungarpur - CHPP is being valued for its holistic provisions. Hence, CHPP appears to be sustainable even with better uptake of RSBY. 7 Street vendors, domestic workers, beedi workers, building and construction workers, people who have worked for more than 15 days in MGNREGS- Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme.

10 How does CHPP compete with private health insurance providers? Cases related to poor health continue to rise in Dungarpur, aggravating the vulnerability of poor households. The objective of CHPP is to provide a fall back mechanism to such families in case of health incidences, and not to make profits. The design of CHPP is different from the conventional health insurance schemes run by private companies. It is a complete package offering preventive health care services for all ages, including health awareness, primary health checkups, treatment and referrals. In addition, it is owned and managed by the community and is a good example of risk pooling and collective decision-making. Is CHPP for the poorest? Presently CHPP caters to enrolled SHG members, 67% of which are from the BPL (Below Poverty Line) category. Although the government classification of BPL can be questioned in terms of actual inclusion of the poor, Save the Children has made an assessment of the poverty status of the SHG members and concluded that the groups represent a socio-economic mixture of women. When starting CHPP, it was important to build it around cohesive and existing units, and not to extend it to non-shg members. However, as the initiative is now firm on the ground, it is being explored as a window for reaching out to additional people, especially among the poorer segments of the population. It is to be noted that in the tribal hinterland of Dungarpur, socio-economic differences are not enormous and majority of the people have limited assets and struggle to make their livelihoods from small-scale farming and unskilled labour. Does CHPP have an impact on children? CHPP provides support to the entire family at times of stress and shock induced by poor health. Also, CHPP undertakes focused child sensitive interventions with SHG members and federation leaders to enable them take positive decisions for the benefit of children in times of household stress. However, it is too early to measure the precise impact of CHPP on children. How can CHPP be sustained? It was a strategic decision to initiate CHPP with SHG federations as it facilitated the programme to use the huge network and leverage their financial and managerial skills. The CHPP has in place capacity building activities for the federation leaders to better realize various technical aspects of health insurance including finances, claim settlement and collective decision-making. With increase in enrollment, the federations will become financially sustainable, while technical knowhow will enable them to independently manage the programme. Therefore, CHPP being community owned and managed is innately sustainable as long as its members value it and there is a functional management system in place. 10 The Community Health Protection Programme in Dungarpur
