Study design
Longitudinal time series with control before and after various TNMSC interventions (20 PHCs Vs 20 Controls).
Time series study of government rural PHCs before and after various TNMSC interventions in 1994-8.
![Page 19: Impact of Tamilnadu Medical Services on drug prescribing in primary health care.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020417/56649e675503460f94b62107/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
RESULTS(preliminary-5 PHCs Vs 4 Controls)
Tim e series analysis is showing a positive trend in the following indicators in the intervention facilities:
1) % of key drugs available per facility per time period 2) Average number of days of stock-out per year per facility per year3) % drugs prescribed by generic name 4) % drugs prescribed that belong to the PHC EDL (51 drugs) 5) Average cost per prescription

However no such trend is discernible in the following:1)% prescriptions containing an antibiotic;
2)% prescriptions containing a vitamin;
3)% prescriptions containing an injection4) average number of drugs per prescription
