Impact of Public Health Policy Interventions on Tribal Health Outcomes: A Regression-Based Analysis of NFHS-5

This study investigates the influence of public health policy interventions on the health outcomes of tribal populations in India using secondary data sources. Employing regression analysis, it aims to identify the correlation between various policy-driven factors and health indicators like child mortality, anaemia prevalence, and institutional delivery rates among tribal communities. Data from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5), Census of India 2011, and reports from the Ministry of Tribal Affairs have been utilized. Findings indicate a statistically significant relationship between public health expenditure, female literacy, and health infrastructure accessibility with improved tribal health outcomes. The study concludes with policy recommendations for targeted, evidence-based health interventions.
