Andhra Doctors Face New Daily Performance Metrics
30 Jun
Summary
- New doctor performance evaluation model proposed in Andhra Pradesh.
- Daily and annual targets to be fixed for healthcare staff.
- Cadre reorganisation based on Presidential Order, 2025 discussed.
A new performance evaluation model for government healthcare facilities has been proposed in Andhra Pradesh by Health Minister Satya Kumar Yadav. This initiative aims to bolster healthcare service delivery and ensure greater accountability among medical professionals.
The proposed model will move beyond assessing annual patient numbers and surgeries. Instead, it introduces daily and annual performance targets for every doctor, nurse, and technician. These targets will be determined based on the staff available at each health facility.
Minister Yadav emphasized the need for monthly performance reviews of hospitals and staff, directing officials to implement corrective measures for identified lapses. Discussions also covered the cadre reorganisation as per the Presidential Order, 2025, which divides the state into zones for employee postings.
Under the new cadre structure, Assistant Professors and above in the Directorate of Medical Education, along with Civil Surgeon Specialists, will fall under the State Cadre. Civil Assistant Surgeons and Dental Assistant Surgeons will be placed in multi-zonal cadres. Preparations for the monsoon season and measures against mosquito-borne diseases were also reviewed.
