|---|---|
| Indicator monitor | The Ministry of Health will issue reports on progress achieved, the main lessons learned and the next steps needed to meet targets. To classify a municipality as having Integrated Health Information Systems, assessment criteria should be established applying to the entire network of health services and facilities. Each municipality should be assessed on an annual basis, specifying whether its health systems fulfil the main purpose for which they were created - this being to issue early warnings, manage timely responses and prevent malnutrition. They will be deemed to be successful if they fulfil the relevant compliance indicators. |
