ANNUAL HEALTH SURVEY
FACT SHEET
First Updation round(2011-12)
KEY FINDINGS
Dr. C. Chandramouli
Registrar General & Census Commissioner,
India
“ Reproductive health and rights are integral to
sustainable development and poverty reduction.
Investing in universal access to reproductive health is
crucial investment in healthy societies and a more
sustainable future”.
– Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General, UN on World
Population Day, 2012
“ Working for the survival and the well being of women and
girls is a human right imperative. And in order to take
advantage of women’s full potential in the development of
their nations, they must be able to plan their lives and
families.”
– Babatunde Osotimehin, Executive Director, UNFPA on World
Population Day, 2012
“ There should be an Annual Health Survey of all
districts which could be published/monitored and
compared against benchmarks”
-Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India – In the meeting
of National Commission of Population, 2005
AHS provides key indicators on Reproductive
and Child Health at District level
in 8 EAG States and
Assam
Vital inputs for evidence based intervention and monitoring
OBJECTIVE OF AHS
 AHS yields a comprehensive, representative and
reliable dataset on core vital indicators including
composite ones like IMR, MMR and TFR along with
their co-variates (process and outcome indicators) at
the district level and maps changes therein on an
annual basis.
 These benchmarks help in better and holistic
understanding and timely monitoring of various
determinants on well-being and health of population
particularly Reproductive and Child Health.

Indicators under AHS
Contd…
 Under 1st phase of release, following 9 indicators have already been
released in the Bulletin 2011-12:
 Crude Birth Rate (CBR)
 Crude Death Rate (CDR)
 Infant Mortality Rate (IMR)
 Neo-Natal Mortality Rate (NNMR)
 Under Five Mortality Rate (U5MR)  Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR)
 Sex Ratio at Birth (SRB)
 Sex Ratio (0-4 years) and
 Sex Ratio (All ages)
 Remaining indicators are being released under present phase of
dissemination.
Five Core Themes Covered
• The presentation focuses on results pertaining
to 5 core themes:
 Total Fertility Rate
 Family Planning: Current Usage & Total Unmet
Need
 Ante Natal Care
 Delivery & Post Natal Care
 Immunization and Breast Feeding Practices
KEY FINDINGS
 Improvement has been noticed in most of the
indicators as compared to Baseline.
 Replacement level of TFR 2.1 has been achieved in
only 29 out of 284 AHS districts whereas in
Baseline it was 20 districts.
 In 145 districts, on an average a woman bears
more than 3 children.
 More than half of currently married women aged
15-49 years are not using any method of family
planning in Bihar.
KEY FINDINGS
 Female Sterilization continues to remain the
most dominant method of family planning
among the modern methods across all AHS
States except Assam.
 At least 12.6% currently married women are yet
to meet their family planning requirement
(Unmet Need) across all AHS States. This was
20.0% in Baseline.
 Despite wider penetration of `Any ANC’, the
coverage under ‘first trimester ANC’ as well as
‘3 or more ANCs’ needs further improvement.
KEY FINDINGS
 Poor performance of full ANC is primarily due to
low IFA consumption.
 Universal coverage of JSY remains a concern
even in better performing States like Odisha, MP
& Rajasthan.
 Seven out of every 10 deliveries are ‘safe’ in
Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Odisha and Assam.
KEY FINDINGS
• At least 1 in 7 mothers has not received any PNC
among all the AHS States, in Assam it is 1 in 3
mothers.
• In full immunization, even the better performing
States like Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh and
Rajasthan fall short by 22-30 percentage points
in achieving universal coverage.
• Percent of traditional method in any method of
family planning is more than 20% in 4 States
namely, Uttar Pradesh, Assam, Jharkhand &
Odisha.
Performance of Hot Spot Districts
55 districts are hotspots (57 in baseline) i.e. common in top 100 districts in
IMR and top 25 Administrative Divisions (111 districts) in MMR.
