The course will review the conceptual frameworks of health systems and quality of care and discuss how these can be used to organize measurement and performance assessment. It will review measures of health system quality, suggest where to focus measurement and provide examples of innovative tools for measuring quality, including in settings without extensive data. The course will critically review past and current approaches to quality improvement and suggest structural levers for improving health systems at scale, including for settings with substantial decentralization and large private sectors.
Participants will apply the concepts from the course to prepare their final presentations using the cases and challenges from their own organizations and countries.
The course is informed by concepts and recommendations from the Lancet Global Health Commission on High Quality Health Systems and the QuEST Network.
