Foreword
The Government of India is strongly committed to strengthen the whole range of public
health infrastructure including Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospitals for improving the availability
and accessibility of affordable quality services to the people. Most of the existing Sub-district/Subdivisional Hospitals require improvement of physical infrastructure as they are mostly located in old
buildings, in towns, where there is no scope for more physical expansion of the building. There is
shortfall of manpower, equipments, drugs and other logistics supply etc. too. Quality management
and quality assurance procedures are also needed to make their functioning more effective,
affordable and accountable.
A Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospital has an important role to play as the First Referral Unit
in providing emergency obstetrics care and neo-natal care and help in bringing down the maternal
mortality and infant mortality. The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) launched by the Honble
Prime Minister of India aims to restructure the health delivery mechanism in the rural areas.
Formulation of Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) is a step in the direction of achieving the
level of quality that these Hospitals are expected to meet or aspire to.
The Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospitals has
been worked out by constituting Expert Group comprising various stakeholders under the
Chairmanship of Director General Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government
of India. These Standards have been prepared bed strength-wise for 31-50 beds and 51-100 beds.
The Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospital has been
prepared, keeping in view the minimum resources available and mention functional level of the
Hospitals in terms of space, manpower, instruments, drugs and other basic health care services.
Constitution of Rogi Kalyan Samittee/Management Committee with involvement of PRIs, Citizen
Charter are expected to make improvement in the functioning and accountability of these Hospitals.
It is emphasized that setting Standards is a dynamic process and will require revision at
regular intervals. It is hoped that this document will be useful to all the stake holders. Any comment
for further improvement is most welcome.
I would like to acknowledge the efforts put in by the Director General of Health Services and
Infrastructure Division in preparing the Guidelines.

Preface
Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospitals act as the First Referral Units for provision of specialist
services to the population from neighbouring Community Health Centres. They have an important
role to play in providing emergency obstetrics care and neo-natal care and help in bringing down
the maternal mortality and infant mortality. The Government of India through the National Rural
Health Mission (NRHM) is committed to strengthen these Hospitals to a level of Indian Public
Health Standards (IPHS).
Standards are a means of describing a level of quality that health care organizations are
expected to meet or aspire to. The performance of these Hospitals can then the assessed against
the set of Standards prescribed. Currently, the available Standards developed by the Bureau of
Indian Standards (BIS) are short of ensuring community involvement, accountability and rights of
citizens that are important for Public Hospitals. Therefore, for the first time under National Rural
Health Mission (NRHM), an effort has been made to prepare Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS)
for Sub-districts/Sub-divisional Hospitals in the country.
The Standards have been prepared in consultation with the Expert Group constituted for
this purpose and taking in to consideration the minimum functional level needed for providing a set
of assured services.
Setting Standards is a dynamic process and this document is not an end in itself. Further
revision of Standards will occur as and when these Hospitals achieve a minimum functional grade.
The contribution of the Expert Group members, and the efforts made by the Infrastructure Division
of the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare in bringing out the first document of IPHS for Sub-district/
Sub-divisional Hospitals is well appreciated. I hope that this document will be of immense help to
the State governments and other stakeholders in bringing up these Hospitals to the level of Indian
Public Health Standards.

Acknowledgements
Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for the Sub-district/Sub-divisional Hospitals fulfill
the needs of secondary referral care which may be useful as a referral document for the delivery of
quality health care. The document is the result of efforts put in by both the government and nongovernment organizations. As the population and geographical size of the Sub-division varies
in different States and UTs, an attempt has been made to formulate IPHS for hospitals having
different bed strengths such as 31-50 and 51-100 bedded hospitals. This document contains the
Standards set for 51-100 bedded hospital at Sub-district/Sub-divisional level.
I gratefully acknowledge the valuable contribution made by all the members of the Expert
Group constituted to formulate Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for the Sub-district/Subdivisional Hospitals. I am thankful to them individually and collectively.

IPHS for 51 to 100 Bedded Hospitals
1.
Introduction
hospitals can be assessed against a set of

standards.
Sub-district (Sub-divisional) hospitals are

below the district and above the block level (CHC)
hospitals and act as First Referral Units. Specialist
services are provided through these sub-district/
district hospitals. These hospitals should play an
important referral link between the Community
Health Centres, Primary Health Centres and subcentres. They have an important role to play as First
Referral Units in providing emergency obstetrics
care and neonatal care and help in bringing down
the Maternal Mortality and Infant Mortality. It also
saves the travel time for the cases needing
emergency care and reduces the workload of the
district hospital. In some of the states, each district
is subdivided in to two or three sub divisions. A
subdivision hospital caters to about 5-6 lakhs
people. In bigger districts the sub-district hospitals
fills the gap between the block level hospitals and
the district hospitals. There are about 1200 such
hospitals in the country with a varying strength of
number of beds ranging from 50 to 100 beds or
more.
There has been effort to set standards for

30 and 100 bedded hospitals by the Bureau of Indian
Standards (BIS). However, these standards are
considered very resource intensive and lack the
process to ensure community involvement,
accountability and citizens charter issues that are
important for public hospitals.
The National Rural Health Mission(NRHM)
has given the opportunity to set Indian Public Health
Standards(IPHS) for various health institutions at
different levels right from Sub-centre to District
Hospital level including Sub-district/Sub-divisional
Hospitals.
The current effort is to prepare Indian Public
Health Standards for the Sub-district Hospitals.
Reference has been made to the BIS Standard for
100 bedded hospitals; Rationalisation of Service
Norms for Secondary Care Hospitals prepared by
Govt. of Tamil Nadu; District Health Facilities,
Guidelines for Development and Operations, WHO,
1998 and Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS)
for Community Health Centres. Setting standards
is a dynamic process. This document contains the
standards to bring the Sub-district Hospitals to a
minimum acceptable functional grade with scope
for further improvement in it. These standards are
flexible as per the requirements and resources
available to the concerned State/UT Government.
The timeframe for implementation and achievement
of these Standards could be extended for five years
and to be done in phases.
The Government of India is strongly

committed to strengthen the health sector for
improving the availability, accessibility of affordable
quality health services to the people. In order to
improve the quality and accountability of health
services a set of standards need to be there for all
health service institutions including sub-district
hospitals.
Standards are a means of describing the
level of quality that health care organizations
are expected to meet or aspire to. The key aim
of standard is to underpin the delivery of quality
services which are fair and responsive to
clients needs, which should be provided
equitably and which deliver improvements in
health and well being of the population. Standards
are the main driver for continuous improvements
in quality. The performance of Sub-district
Most of the existing hospitals below district

level (51-100 Bed category) are located in older
buildings in urbanized areas / towns as compared
to most Primary Health Centres / Sub-centres. The
expansions already done have resulted in
construction touching the boundaries walls with no
scope of further expansions. As far as possible,
1
1,00,000 to 5,00,000. Based on the assumptions of

the annual rate of admission as 1 per 50 populations
and average length of stay in a hospital as 5 days,
the number of beds required for a sub district having
a population of 5 lakhs will be around 100-150 beds.
However, as the population of the sub district varies
a lot, it would be prudent to prescribe norms by
grading the size of the hospitals as per the number
of beds.
States should not dislocate the said hospitals to a

new location (in case of dislocating to a new location,
the original client group will not be able to have same
access to the desired health facilities)
2.
Objectives of Indian Public Health

Standards (IPHS) for Sub-District
Hospitals:
The overall objective of IPHS is to provide

health care that is quality oriented and sensitive to
the needs of the people of the district. The specific
objectives of IPHS for Sub District Hospitals are:
i.
Grade II: Sub District hospitals norms for 50

beds not exceeding 100 beds
To provide comprehensive secondary health

care (specialist and referral services) to the
community through the Sub District Hospital.
ii.
To achieve and maintain an acceptable

standard of quality of care.
iii.
To make the services more responsive and

sensitive to the needs of the people of the
district and act as the First Referral Unit
(FRU) for the hospitals/centers from which
the cases are referred to the Sub District
hospitals
3.
Grade I: Sub District hospitals norms for 100

beds or more
The minimum functional grade of the two

different grades of sub district hospitals requiring
the physical infrastructure, manpower, diagnostic
and investigation facilities, equipment norms, drugs
and other supportive services etc. have been given.
5.
A sub district hospital has the following

functions:
Definition of Sub District hospitals
1.
It provides effective, affordable healthcare

services (curative including specialist
services, preventive and promotive) for a
defined population, with their full participation
and in co-operation with agencies in the
district that have similar concern. It covers
both urban population (sub divisional
headquarter town) and the rural population
of the sub division.
2.
Function as a referral centre for the public

health institutions below the district level
such as Sub-divisional Hospitals,
Community Health Centres, Primary Health
Centres and Sub-centres.
The term Sub District / Sub Divisional

Hospital is used here to mean a hospital at the
secondary referral level responsible for the Sub
District / Sub Division of a defined geographical area
containing a defined population.
4.
Functions
Grading of Sub District hospitals
The size of a sub district hospital is a function

of the hospital bed requirement, which in turn is a
function of the size of the population it serves. In
India the population size of a sub district varies from

PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
7.1
Size of the hospital:
rain fall and data on weather and climate. Hospital

Management Policy should emphasize on quake
proof, fire proof and flood proof buildings.
Infrastructure should be eco-friendly and disabled
(physically and visually handicapped) friendly.
Provision should be made for water harvesting,
generating back-up, solar energy / power back-up,
and horticulture services including herbal garden.
Local agency Guidelines and By-laws should strictly
be followed. A room for horticulture to store garden
implements, seeds etc will be made available.
The size of a district hospital is a function of

the hospital bed requirement which in turn is a
function of the size of the population serve. In India
the population size of a district varies from 50,000
to 15,00,000. For the purpose of convenience the
average size of the district is taken in this document
as one million populations. Based on the
assumptions of the annual rate of admission as 1
per 50 populations. And average length of stay in a
hospital as 5 days. The number of beds required
for a district having a population of 10 lakhs will be
as follows:
The total number of admissions per year =
10,00,000 x 1/50 = 20,000
Bed days per year = 20,000 x 5 = 100,000
7.4
Factors to be considered in locating a

district hospital
The location may be near the residential

area.
Too old building may be demolished and

new construction done in its place.
It should be free from dangers of flooding; it

must not, therefore, be sited at the lowest
point of the district.
It should be in an area free of pollution of

any kind, including air, noise, water and land
pollution.
It must be serviced by public utilities: water,

sewage and storm-water disposal,
electricity, gas and telephone. In areas
where such utilities are not available,
substitutes must be found, such as a deep
well for water, generators for electricity and
radio communication for telephone.
Necessary environmental clearance will be

taken.
Disability Act will be followed.
7.5
Site selection criteria
Total number of beds required when

occupancy is 100% = 100000/365 = 275
Total number of beds required when
occupancy is 80% = 100000/365 x 80/100
7.2
Area of the hospital:

2
An area of 65-85 m per bed has been

considered to be reasonable. The area will include
the service areas such as waiting space, entrance
hall, registration counter, etc. In case of specific
requirement of a hospital, flexibility in altering the
area be kept.
7.3
Site information:
Physical description of the area which

should include bearings, boundaries, topography,
surface area, land used in adjoining areas, limitation
of the site that would affect planning, maps of vicinity
and landmarks or centers, existing utilities, nearest
city, port, airport, railway station, major bus stand,
A rational, step-by-step process of site

selection occurs only in ideal circumstances. In
24
Floor Height
some cases, the availability of a site outweighs other

rational reasons for its selection, and planners arid
architects are confronted with the job of assessing
whether apiece of land is suitable for building a
hospital. In the case of either site selection or
evaluation of adaptability, the following items must
be, considered: size, topography, drainage, soil
conditions, utilities available, natural features and
limitations.
The room height should not be less than

approximately 3.6 m measured at any point from
floor to floor height.
Entrance Area
Physical Facilities
Ambulatory Care Area (OPD)
7.6
In the already existing structures of a

district hospital
It should be examined whether they fit into

the design of the recommended structure
and if the existing parts can be converted
into functional spaces to fit in to the
recommended standards.
Waiting Spaces
Registration, assistance and enquiry counter
facility be made available in all the clinics.
Main entrance, general waiting and
subsidiary waiting spaces are required adjacent to
each consultation and treatment room in all the
clinics.
If the existing structures are too old to

become part of the new hospital, could they
be converted to a motor pool, laundry, store
or workshop or for any other use of the
district hospital.
If they are too old and dilapidated then they

must be demolished. And new construction
should be put in place.
7.7.
Building and Space Requirements

Annexure I
Guidelines for the Project providing financial support to the selected

Government Hospitals for Hospital Waste Management.
institutions under Central/State Governments for:
The Ministry of Environment & Forests

notified the Bio-Medical Waste (Management &
Handling) Rules, 1998 in July, 1998.
1.
Purchase of equipments such as:

a)
b)
c)
d)
In accordance with the rules (Rule 4), it is

the duty of every Occupier, i.e. a person who has
the control over the institution and/or its premises,
to take all steps to ensure that the waste generated
is handled without any adverse effect to human
health and environment. The Rules further state that
every Occupier, where required, shall set up
requisite bio-medical waste treatment facilities like
incinerator, autoclave, microwave system for the
treatment of waste, or ensure requisite treatment of
waste at a common treatment facility or any other
treatment facility. No untreated bio-medical waste
shall be kept stored beyond a period of 48 hours
(Rules 5 & 6).
Incinerator
Microwave
Autoclave
Shredder
2.
Other equipments including colour coded

bags and puncture proof containers,
protective gears, etc.
3.
Civil and electrical works to house and

operate the waste treatment facilities.
4.
Training
5.
IEC activities.
Hospital Waste Management System must

be established in accordance with the Bio-Medical
Waste (Management & Handling) Rules, 1998
(Annexure).
The hospitals, nursing homes, clinic,

dispensary, animal house, pathological lab, etc. are,
therefore, required to set in place the biological
waste treatment facilities. It is, however, not
incumbent that every institution has to have its own
waste treatment facilities. The rules also envisage
that common facility or any other facilities can be
used for waste treatment. However, it is incumbent
on the occupier to ensure that the waste is treated
within a period of 48 hours. Schedule VI of the rules
also provides the time limits by which the waste
treatment facilities are required to be in place.
Segregation must be done at the source of

generation of waste. As 80-85% of waste generated
in hospitals is non-hazardous or general waste,
segregation will reduce the quantum of waste that
needs special treatment to only 15-20% of the total
waste. The categories for segregation of waste and
colour coding and type of container should be as in
Schedule 1 and 2 of the Bio-Medical Waste
(Management & Handling) Rules, 1998.
The various options for treatment of waste
can be selected according to feasibility and type of
waste as given in the Schedule I. The correct
colour bag should be used for the particular
treatment option.
In connection with the implementation of the

Rules, it has been decided to take up pilot projects
in selected Government hospitals Central and
State.
AIM: The aim of the scheme is to implement
pilot projects to have a demonstration effect by
providing financial assistance to identified hospitals/
The various options are:

1.
72
Incineration: The incinerator installed must
5.
meet the specification and emission

standards as given in the Bio-Medical Waste
(Management & Handling) Rules, 1998 and
must meet the guidelines developed by
Central Pollution Control Board for design
and construction of bio-medical waste
incinerator (circulated to all States/UTs vide
letter no. Z.28015/50/2003-H, dated
18.11.2003) a certificate may be taken
from the State Pollution Control Board.
Waste category, 1, 2, 3, 5, & 6 as stated in
the Schedule I of the bio-Medical Waste
Wherever common facilities for treatment
and disposal of bio-medical waste are
available, installation of incinerators by
individual hospitals may not be encouraged
and such waste should be transported to the
common facility for proper treatment.
2.
3.
4.
Transportation of Waste: Within the

hospital in dedicated wheeled containers,
trolleys or carts should be used to transport
the bins or plastic bags to the site of storage/
