## Start with the vacancy notice and service

“Health Assistant” vacancies can be issued for different services, levels, and employers. A title alone does not establish one grade, allowance package, retirement scheme, or take-home amount; match the appointment to the relevant service scale and rules.

Check the exact vacancy and eligibility details in the [Public Service Commission’s official notices](https://psc.gov.np/category/notice), then use the applicable salary scale published by the [Ministry of Finance](https://fcgo.gov.np/content/404/salary-of-national-service-employees-effective-from/). For health-sector service and policy information, consult the [Ministry of Health and Population](https://mohp.gov.np/). Confirm whether the notice is for federal, provincial, or local service before comparing pay terms.

The health-service schedule effective from 2083 Shrawan 1 lists a starting basic salary of NPR 38,203 for the assistant fifth-level row. Apply this figure only when the vacancy identifies that health-service level and row; an HA title in another employer or level can have different terms.

## What to confirm for an HA post

- Exact designation, service, group, level, employer, and appointment type
- Starting scale, grade placement, and grade progression in the applicable document
- Any location or clinical allowance and the rule that authorizes it
- Employee contributions, tax, insurance, and other deductions
- The retirement or contribution scheme applicable to the appointment date

A personal take-home amount requires the actual grade, posting, applicable allowances, and deductions. This page is calculation guidance, not a current Health Assistant salary breakdown. For health-service exam notices, follow the [PSC notice catalogue](https://psc.gov.np/category/notice).
