Bangladesh Health Facility Survey 2017

The 2017 Bangladesh Health Facility Survey (BHFS) is the fourth nationally representative health facility survey in Bangladesh and follows earlier surveys in 2009, 2011, and 2014. The focus is on formal health sector facilities: public, private (at least 20 beds), and nongovernmental.

The 2017 BHFS provides information on the availability and readiness of services for maternal, newborn, and child health; family planning services; selected non-communicable diseases, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease; and tuberculosis. Information was collected from 1,524 health facilities and 5,400 health providers.
