While major findings will not yet have changed dramatically at national level, things may have changed quite a bit already at individual facilities and at the district level. Of the 76 facilities selected for re-survey, 3 had closed, and 7 that had been closed during the initial survey had resumed activities. The GPS readings taken at each health facility, enabled the teams to localize the villages and to plot the facilities on the map. The average number of rooms per facility for all facilities combined was 12. The answers to these questions show that most facilities were on average within 20 minutes from a drivable road and within 40 minutes from a paved road. Similarly, 16 of 21 national/regional hospitals claimed to have a separate surgery room. Almost every hospital that claimed to have a room also claimed to have means of sterilizing equipment and administering anesthesia. At the time of the survey there were no clear national guidelines on whether lower-level health workers should address these issues. The assessment asked a number of questions related to the ownership of and sources of support for health facilities: Who built the facility? If we exclude trained dais, community health workers, and vaccinators from this calculation, physicians and specialist physicians make up 28% of all health workers. A particular concern in Afghanistan is the availability of female health workers in health facilities. Reasonable access to the most basic

You choose your health care providers and provide self-care. It is not enough just to acknowledge your responsibility--to receive optimal, cost effective health care, you must proactively take positive action. Taking an active role in your health decisions results in better overall health care. It improves the quality of self-care, helps ensure appropriate care when you interact with the health care system and increases your confidence in dealing with your family's illness and injuries. Patients who take part in decisions about their health care typically have better outcomes. Although most health care can be provided at home, there will be times when you need to engage with the professional health care system. In addition, you can improve your health care decision making by: Choosing a health care provider with whom you feel comfortable, whom you trust and who values your participation in decisions about your care.

Programs at the NICHD are based on the concepts that adult health and well-being are determined in large part by episodes early in life, sometimes before birth; that human development is continuous throughout life; and that optimal outcomes of development are important not only to the individual but to society. The ability to control one's own reproduction encompasses the desire not only to have children but also to have them at a time and in a manner that best ensures their future health, both physical and mental. Reproductive health significantly influences the overall health of individuals and society and has been the subject of increased attention from a health and economic viewpoint. While leaving intact the NICHD's existing areas of research emphasis, the plan also builds on the goals listed below, allowing the Institute to advance the technologies that are indispensable to achieving reproductive health without neglecting other research areas that are within its broad mandate. It implies further that people are able to regulate their fertility without risks to their health and they are safe in having sex. The definition also reinforces a key aspect of the Institute's core mission, which is to foster collaborative approaches to problems of reproductive health within the context of human development. However, as the power of human genetic analysis has increased, the evaluation of infertile couples has begun to

The laws in 47 states that restrict the use of genetic information in some forms of health insurance stand as a testament to the concern and interest of state legislators with regard to this complex, yet important, issue. As a result, state legislators likely will remain involved in the development of public policy for genetics and health insurance. Future issues for policymakers in this area may include gaps in health insurance discrimination protections, unintended consequences of existing laws, and access to and coverage of genetic services. The majority of genetics and health insurance laws--with the exception of laws that address coverage of newborn screening and rare childhood genetic diseases--focus on public perceptions that health insurers will use genetic information to deny coverage or charge higher rates based on genetic information or genetic test However, insurers contend that in the case of individual insurance policies, genetic information may allow them to improve underwriting, decrease adverse selection--or insurer losses as a result of an applicant's failure to disclose health information--and ultimately lead to more affordable insurance. In 1996, Congress addressed the use of genetic information for group health insurance in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Under HIPAA, insurers providing health coverage for a group of 50 or more individuals may not deny an applicant as a result of a health status-related factor, including genetic information. The law
