This issue reviews RHSWG priorities and SRH developments from January to March 2025. It focuses on strengthening maternal care monitoring through the national PHENICS health information system, including survey findings on hospital use of PHENICS for referrals, patient data, reimbursement, and interagency coordination. It also highlights work by the Clinical Management of Rape Task Force to assess access to forensic services as part of comprehensive CMR services, including findings on forensic doctors, laboratories, fees, reporting timelines, and DNA testing costs. The newsletter further documents dashboard updates for hospital delivery and CMR services, as well as the impact of the United States funding stop order on SRH services at supported primary healthcare centres. It warns of reduced access to maternal health, family planning, community outreach, and SRH commodities.
