Welcome to the Health Systems 20/20
Health Systems Database. This easy-to-use
web-based tool compiles and analyzes country data from multiple sources,
provides charting options, and generates automated country fact sheets,
helping users to assess the performance of the country’s health systems.
The
Health Systems Database draws data from publicly available and
internationally comparable databases. Sources are publications from the
World Health Organization (WHO), the World Bank, and the United Nations
Children’s Fund (UNICEF). More recent data may be available from other sources
including in-country sources. The
user contribution section of this tool is
designed to capture and share such information.
The tool offers a user-friendly interface with several types of
graphing and
mapping
features as well as a
flexible data download
system that provide key health systems information for any selected country. Comparisons with
peer countries in the region and income group are provided, which allows
for some benchmarking of performance, especially when international standards
for benchmarking are not available.
Country Health Systems Fact Sheets
provide automated profiles, covering multiple health systems functions, for
any low income or lower middle income country.
The
Health Systems Database complements the recently released
Health Systems Assessment Approach:
A How-To Manual and, therefore, it closely mirrors the
framework and quantitative analysis presented in the manual. Key health
systems indicators are organized around seven technical modules: Core module,
Governance, Health financing, Health service delivery, Human resources,
Pharmaceutical management, and Health information systems. The
Health Systems
Database provides data for the assessment manual’s Component 1 indicators and
replaces the CD provided with the manual.
