USAID asked its three major health system strengthening projects (PHRplus/Health Systems 20/20; RPM Plus; and the Quality Assurance Project) to develop a rapid but comprehensive approach to assessing health systems by drawing from their experiences working on different, but complementary components of health systems. The result of this effort is an indicator-based, modular assessment tool—Health Systems Assessment Approach: A How-to Manual. This seminar covered the contents of the manual, the circuitous path to its development, and a range of applications in Angola, Azerbaijan, Benin, Ghana, Malawi, Pakistan, and Yemen.
