This page compiles publicly available information from the Madhepura district health administration as of August 2026. Doctor availability and services can change — in a serious situation, always contact the nearest hospital or the 108 ambulance service immediately.

Udakishunganj block has a Primary Health Centre (PHC) that handles the block's primary healthcare needs — general OPD, immunization, delivery services, and implementation of government health schemes. Across Madhepura district, there are a total of 36 PHCs and numerous sub-centres that extend healthcare down to the village level.

Official source: the Health section of madhepura.nic.in lists all PHCs, sub-centres, and the Sadar Hospital in the district, updated periodically by the District Health Society.

What the PHC handles

  • General OPD consultations and basic medicines
  • Immunization programs (for children and pregnant women)
  • Normal delivery services and antenatal checkups
  • Implementation of national health programs like family planning, TB, and malaria control

Referral for serious cases

For complicated deliveries, surgery, serious accidents, or specialist treatment, the PHC refers patients to Sadar Hospital, Madhepura (the district hospital), which has better facilities and specialist doctors. In very serious cases, patients may be further referred to larger hospitals in Patna.

Emergency help: for any medical emergency, dial 108 for the free ambulance service. During flood season, reaching the PHC from villages in the Kosi basin can become difficult — plan ahead for this possibility.

The bottom line

For routine care, the local PHC is the first stop; for serious cases, Sadar Hospital Madhepura. For healthcare access during disasters, see our Kosi flood safety guide.
