Overview

The health labour market analysis (HLMA) for Assam focuses on assessing the distribution, competencies, and gaps within the public health workforce. It provides a situational analysis of health & care workforce to meet the population’s needs, particularly in primary health care, with a focus on maternal and child health services. The analysis also explores current practices aimed at improving access to healthcare, including referral systems and emergency care, especially in hard-to-reach areas. The findings provide insights into workforce challenges to inform strategies to optimize service delivery and address health inequities across the state.
