Overview

PAIDAR demonstrates how private-sector male family physicians can expand access to quality family planning services in Punjab. Implemented across six districts, the model combined provider mapping and competency-based training, digital reporting through a mobile MIS, pharmacy and pharmaceutical-distributor engagement, referral networks, and supportive supervision. The initiative engaged more than 805 physicians and served over 67,000 family planning clients, while also testing the provision of long-acting contraceptive methods through trained private providers.
