Our experience of working in remote and poor tribal villages in Madhya Pradesh has highlighted the dismal conditions of people suffering with various diseases or disabilities. Due to poverty, lack of access to good hospitals and doctors, they suffer from the sickness without getting the desired treatment. Therefore, we have started full day mobile clinic service in the villages. We employ a qualified doctor who visits 4-5 villages daily and examines around 100-150 patients. Free medicines are also provided to the patients. Those patients who are referred to Block or District Level Hospitals, because of serious illness, are also taken to these hospitals for treatment by Parivaar.
In a fortnightly cycle, at present, we are serving 928 tribal villages in 8 districts through 20 such MMCs.
The per person cost is about Rs 52, which includes fuel cost, manpower costs, medical consultation and medicines.
