Survekshan

Survekshan is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in India, established in 1998. It is dedicated to improving the quality of healthcare services in India by conducting regular, independent assessments of public and private healthcare facilities. The organization's name translates to "examination" or "survey" in Hindi, reflecting its mission to evaluate and enhance healthcare standards.

Survekshan operates through a network of volunteers and staff who conduct surveys in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, and community health centers. The assessments cover a wide range of services and facilities, such as emergency care, operating theaters, labor rooms, and outpatient departments. The organization uses a standardized methodology and tools to ensure consistency and comparability of data across different facilities.

The primary goal of Survekshan is to provide objective and reliable information to stakeholders, including policymakers, healthcare providers, and the public. This information is used to identify areas for improvement, track progress over time, and promote accountability in the healthcare sector. Survekshan's reports and findings are published on its website and shared with relevant organizations to inform policy decisions and service delivery improvements.

Survekshan's work is supported by various partners, including international organizations, government agencies, and private sector entities. The organization collaborates with these partners to strengthen healthcare systems, improve patient outcomes, and ultimately contribute to the overall health and well-being of the population in India. By fostering a culture of quality and accountability, Survekshan plays a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of the healthcare sector in the country.
