dc.descriptionEfficiency of health care services of a country depends on level of accessibility to available health care services. World Health Organisation predicates that accessibility remains a problem for isolated rural families in Sri Lanka and identifies the necessity of development of services in order to improve equity of access in areas which are lagging behind as a main priority (World Health Organization, 2012).

Kurunegala District was selected for this study since nearly 97% of total population is recorded as rural.en_US
