Health Systems Assessment Approach (HSAA)

Author:Health Systems 20/20 (HS 20/20)
Description:The Health Systems Assessment Approach (HSAA) assesses a country's health system through seven modules, one of which focuses on HIS. Technical modules (including HIS) can be used, as needed, but should always be accompanied by the overview assessment. The purpose of the HIS module is to understand the capacity of the country's HIS to produce reliable information for decision makers. The assessment does not review, interpret, or analyze the health statistics of data; rather, it looks at how the system functions. The HSAA is flexible and can be applied by a variety of audiences, including government organizations and international donors.
