| Abstract: |
This article has attempted to map the health status of tribal communities of Odisha by analyzing various government reports on tribal health. Findings suggest that besides sex ratio, all other health indicators of tribals of the state are in adverse condition. In the last decade, tribals have been better in accessing antenatal care, post-natal care, institutional delivery, immunization, vaccination, etc. but have not achieved the expected level and still significant number of tribal communities have failed to avail the modern health facilities. Tribals continue to suffer from poor health status such as high rate of childhood mortality, anaemia, sickle cell, malaria, thyroid, hypertension, diarrhoea, cancer, etc. Lack of proper health infrastructures such as PHCs, CHCs and Sub-Centres, shortage of required medical staff and poor education are the key problems preventing tribals from accessing modern health care facilities, thus result into poor health status. Government expenditure on tribal health has been increasing
perennially but there is no substantial improvement in the status of tribal health. Special tribal health policies or schemes in both national and state-level is the urgent need of the hour to address the health problems of tribal communities.
