Evidence of the Scorecard Strategy § 1 st pioneers to integrate BSC for National Health Systems § Benchmarking successfully employed for service delivery through contracting mechanisms for provincial comparisons § Significant progress in all domains § Facilitated a culture of measurement and accountability to inform policy analysis and planning § Scorecard innovations for hospital performance and health information systems
Limitations § Skewed SC: input/process not outcome measures § Linked facility HH surveys § Non-users § Lacked measures for community oriented health services § Facility teams not equipped with problem solving/QI tools § Bias (observer, courtesy, not risk adjusted) § Inadequate documentation of strategic inflection points § § removal of user fees increased service utilization? investment of resources, policy changes etc?

PAHO Multidimensional HSPA No Domain D 1 Participatory and intersectoral governance D 2 Financing towards universal coverage Description Defined as one in which all the relevant stakeholders take part in governance and decision-making processes and are ensured that their opinions and expectations were given due consideration even if they were not always included in the final decisions for healthcare delivery. Defined as ensuring access for all, to appropriate promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative services at an affordable cost. Thus, universal coverage incorporates two complementary dimensions in addition to financial risk protection: the extent of population coverage (e. g. who is covered) and the extent of health service coverage (e. g. what is covered). D 3 Adequate resources and capacity D 4 People-centered service delivery Defined as the specific capacity of a healthcare entity (or organization), measured in quantity and level of quality, over an extended period which is satisfactory or acceptable in quality or quantity D 5 Equitable, effective and efficient outputs D 6 Improved health and well-being (outcomes) D 7 Context and other determinants of health Refers to maximizing healthcare outputs (the products of healthcare) produced from a set of healthcare inputs, holding healthcare output quality constant (efficiency) in a manner that is equitable (fair) and effective (produces the expected result Defined as health care delivery that is respectful of, and responsive to, the preferences, needs and values of patients and consumers. The widely accepted dimensions are respect, emotional support, physical comfort, information and communication, continuity and transition, care coordination, involvement of family and careers, and access to care Defined as changes to the health status of the individual patient and target population that are brought about or produced by healthcare delivery Refers to the background, environment, framework, setting, or situation which influence health-related outcomes
