Evidence of the Scorecard Strategy • 1st 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?

Further innovations • Rapid developments in the heath system landscape • New policies, standards, strategies, tools • HS reconfiguration; sub-centers, health posts, mobile clinics • Epidemiological transitions • Security Constraints • Reconciling indicators from other measurement systems – HMIS

Designing Health System Performance Assessment Framework - Multiphase Strategy
PAHO HSP Progressive 110 Indicator Framework Level A- 30-50 core performance indicators for each domain for countries in early stage of institution Level B- 50+ expanded, to include additional indicators, for countries with advanced information systems Level C- Comprehensive for progressive health systems to accommodate changes in technology and other healthcare environment factors
Design QI Frameworks for Child HealthEvidence of QI Strategies -A Selected Review & Compendium of QI Models Evidence of short term small scale improvements, but failed to create learning organizations and empowered teams to sustain QI interventions for routine performance in the absence of external financing. Very few illustrate successful national integration of these models.
