Japanese encephalitis accounted for 29.5% of zoonotic outbreaks, followed by leptospirosis (18.7%) and scrub typhus (13.9%). The northeast region contributed 35.8% of zoonotic disease outbreaks, followed by the southern (31.7%) and western regions (15.4%). One-third (34.6%) of outbreaks were reported late, and they declined over the years (52.6% in 2019, 40.9% in 2021, and 5.2% in 2023).

This study explored factors affecting the implementation and scale-up of integration of these services within maternity care in Nepal from the perspectives of healthcare providers and policymakers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;For this qualitative study, we conducted in-depth, semi-structured interviews remotely with healthcare providers and policymakers across all seven provinces of the Nepali maternal healthcare sector until theme saturation was achieved.

Respondents were assessed for eligibility and subsequently recruited. The Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research and Theoretical Domains Framework guided our inquiry and analysis.

The themes included: (i) the perceived inadequate awareness and low desire for PPIUCDs among care recipients, (ii) PPIUCD-specific issues, (iii) inadequate capacity and capability to deliver the services, (iv) inadequate investment and priority, and (v) contextual factors such as pelvic inflammatory diseases and hygiene considerations. Some contrasting views were reported between healthcare providers and policy participants. Policy participants emphasised insufficient efforts by healthcare providers to provide counselling and PPIUCD, while healthcare providers identified PPIUCD-related issues (e.g., complexity of the insertion procedure) as a significant barrier hindering their efforts. Both healthcare providers and policy participants identified inadequate investment in and priority on integrating postpartum contraceptive services, including PPIUCD, as another important factor. Participants indicated that there is an urgent need to implement effective integrated counselling and contraception services.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Interpretation&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Greater investment is needed to address multilevel barriers to implementing and scaling up integrated postpartum family planning services, particularly PPIUCD insertion within maternity services in Nepal.
