26
are signposts of change along the path to development
Indicators
27
They describe the way to track intended results and are critical for monitoring and evaluation.
Indicators
28
They describe the way to track intended results and are critical for monitoring and evaluation
indicators
29
are a vital part of the results framework.
good performance indicators
30
indicators can help to:
• inform decision making for an ongoing program
• measure progress and achievements, as understood by the different stakeholders
• clarify consistency between activities, outputs, outcomes, and impacts
• ensure legitimacy and accountability to all stakeholders by demonstrating progress
• assess activities and staff performance
31
should be valid, reliable, specific, sensitive, and feasible/affordable to measure
Health indicators
32
They must also be relevant and useful for decisionmaking.
Health indicators
33
main challenge in indicators
identify a small set of indicator
34
often have a defined minimum list of indicators, usually at the instigation of external partners and donors.
Individual program ares
35
When combined, these ------ can create a considerable burden in terms of data collection.
indicators
36
rational selection of a set of ------------- is therefore essentia
core health indicators
37
Core indicators of a country’s health information system performance can be grouped into two broad types, namely:
- realted to data generation using core sources and methods
- related to country capacities for synthesis, analysis and validation of data
38
Reflect the country's capacity to collect relevant data at appropriate intervals and using the most suitable data sources.
Indicators related to data generation using core sources and methods
39
Includes health surveys, civil registration or birth and death registration, census, facility reporting, and health system resource tracking.
Indicators related to data generation using core sources and methods
40
Benchmarks include periodicity, timeliness, and contents of data collection efforts and availability of data on key indicators.
Indicators related to data generation using core sources and methods
41
Indicators of country capacity measure critical dimensions of the institutional frameworks needed to ensure data quality, including independence, transparency, and access.
Indicators are related to country capacities for synthesis, analysis, and validation of data.
42
Benchmarks include the availability of independent coordination mechanisms and the availability of microdata and metadata.
Indicators are related to country capacities for synthesis, analysis, and validation of data.
43
data about individuals, households, or organizations and consists of records containing information on respondents or other entities.
microdata
44
data that enters A person's details (email, first name, last name, age, location, etc.)
Microdata
45
is a set of data that describes and gives information about other data.
metadata
46
Having the ability to search for a particular element (or elements) of that metadata makes it much easier for someone to locate a specific document.
metadata
47
For example, author, date created, date modified, and file size are examples of very basic document file metadata.

Attributes of a well-functioning HIS
1) G eneration of individual-level, facility-based and population-based data from multiple sources:
• public health surveillance platforms, • medical records, • Civil registration data, • household surveys, • censuses • health service coverage, • health system input data (e.g., human resources, health infrastructure, and financing).
2) Capacity to detect, investigate, communicate, and contain events that threaten public health security at the place and as soon as they occur.
3) Ability to synthesize information and apply this know ledge. A good HIS • improves both demand for and supply and use of data – in clinical • management, financing, planning, and implementation

• The comprehensiveness of health data capture: prevalence, incidence, qualitative social and behavioral data, disaggregated by age and gender
• % of districts that submit timely, complete and accurate reports to national level
• % of facilities that submit timely, complete and accurate reports to district level
• Level of use of data collection systems for studies and evaluations
• Level of integration of health data into management and forecasting reports and processes

independent assessment
131
may not agree with the assessment and, therefore, may not use the results for developing an improvement strategy
disadvantage of independent assessment
132
the degree of country ownership generated that enables the assessment to serve as the basis for the development of a plan for improvement.
advantage of self-assessmnet
133
generally timeconsuming and complex to implement and are less likely to generate results that can be compared over time or between countries, and are likely to be biased
self-assessment approaches
134
collected may be incomplete or of poor quality

137
emphasize the importance of monitoring equity
sustainable development goals
138
they maintain medical record rooms and may have health information units overflowing with data. However, despite this, many are still challenged to ensure timely reporting, to produce disaggregated data and use it for policy and planning, and to monitor trends in health services and outcomes
