Overview
The Minimum Service Standards (MSS) for Ayurveda health institutions is the readiness tool that sets in minimum set of standards to be fulfilled by the Ayurveda Hospital, Health Centre & Aushadhalayaand to be able to provide the services that it claims to provide. The Ayurveda Hospital, Health Centre & Aushadhalaya can thrive to provide more than what has been enlisted in the MSS but it is crucial that they have first fulfilled the MSS requirements.
The MSS is complementary to the existing quality improvement tools in the sense that it will ensure inputs in place before checking on the processes and outputs. It does not detail out how the services are to be provided which is basically the scope of Standard Treatment Protocols.
During the development of the MSS for Ayurveda Hospitals, the framework was prepared with three basic components- governance and management, clinical service management and support service management. The development of MSS for Ayurveda Hospitals is based the guidance of the Department of Ayurveda and Alternative Medicines.
