The Package of Interventions for Rehabilitation (PIR) is a resource that provides relevant information on essential interventions for rehabilitation and related resources (material, human and time) required for the delivery of the interventions. The PIR is available for 20 health conditions amenable to rehabilitation that are organized in seven disease area-specific modules (musculoskeletal conditions, neurological conditions, cardiopulmonary conditions, neurodevelopmental conditions, sensory impairments, cancer, and mental health). The interventions included in the PIR are relevant to Universal Health Coverage. The PIR provides countries with information relevant for the planning, budgeting, and implementation of rehabilitation in their health systems. While Ministries of Health are the main target audience, the information available with the PIR is also useful for service planners and providers, researchers, and academics.
