4 4. Composite coverage index (Equity) The composite coverage index is a weighted score reflecting coverage of eight RMNCH interventions along the continuum of care: demand for family planning satisfied; antenatal care coverage (at least one visit); births attended by skilled health personnel; BCG immunization coverage among one-year-olds; measles immunization coverage among one-year-olds; DTP3 immunization coverage among one-year-olds; children aged less than five years with diarrhoea receiving oral rehydration therapy and continued feeding; and children aged less than five years with pneumonia symptoms taken to a health facility. This indicator is based on aggregate estimates. Empowering and engaging people and communities/ Reaching the underserved and marginalized % Coverage disaggregated by Data are derived from re-analysis of Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) micro-data which are publicly available using the standard indicator definitions as published in DHS documentation. The analysis was done by the International Center for Analysis and Monitoring of Equity in Health and Nutrition based in the Federal University of Pelotas, Brazil.

7 7. UHC Service Coverage Index Indicator Name UHC Service Coverage Index Weighted average of 14 tracer indicators across four service coverage categories (Reproductive newborn maternal child health, infectious disease, non-communicable disease, and service capacity and access). Effective coverage, which captures the extent to which those in need of health services receive quality care that obtains the desired result, was the guiding principle for choosing tracer indicators. Strategy/Strategi c Reorienting the model of care/ (1) Defining service priorities based on life course needs Tracer indicators include: Family planning coverage, pregnancy care, Immunization coverage, care seeking for pneumonia, TB cases detected and treated, HIV ART coverage, insecticide treated bed net use (in countries with endemic malaria), improved water and sanitation, prevalence of HTN, prevalence of diabetes, non-use of tobacco, inpatient admission rate, health worker density, access to essential medicines, IHR core capacity index alnote_may2016.pdf?ua=1 Countries provide a wide range of services for health protection, promotion, prevention, treatment and care, but it is possible to define a set of tracer indicators that provide a good picture of overall service coverage. These tracer indicators can then be combined in a systematic way into an index that summarizes national service coverage with a single numerical value. NCD indicators limited to prevalence, which does not reflect specific service coverage, but often the broader public health countries (availability of data varies with indicators) Various UHC Data Portal; UHC technical note Note_May2016.pdf?ua=1

25 25. Avoidable admissions Number of hospital admissions with a primary diagnosis of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, congestive heart failure, and diabetes mellitus among people aged 15 years and over per population. (Age standardized) Coordinating services within and across sectors/ Coordinating health programmes and providers : Number of hospital admissions with a primary diagnosis of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, congestive heart failure, and diabetes mellitus among people aged 15 years and over. Denominator: Total population aged 15 and over Calculation: N/D * (age standardized) Common to all five conditions is the fact that the evidence base for effective treatment is well established and much of it can be delivered at a primary care level. A high-performing primary care system can reduce acute deterioration in people living with asthma, COPD or CHF and prevent their admission to hospital. Disease prevalence may explain some, not all, variations in cross-country rates. Differences in coding practices among countries and the definition of an admission may also affect the comparability of data. For example, while the transfer of patients from one hospital to another is required to be excluded from the calculations to avoid double counting, this cannot be fully complied with by some countries. There is also a risk that countries that do not have the capacity to track patients through the system do not identify all relevant admissions due to changes in diagnosis coding on transfer between hospitals. OECD countries, others would require data collection Administrative data OECD Health Care Quality Indicators

26 26. Number of countries that have reduced by at least 5% the number of hospitalizations for ambulatory care sensitive conditions Number of countries that have reduced by at least 5% the number of hospitalizations for ambulatory care sensitive conditions. (primary diagnosis of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, congestive heart failure, and diabetes mellitus among people aged 15 years and over; age standardized) in a given period of time. Coordinating services within and across sectors/ Coordinating health programmes and providers Common to all five conditions is the fact that the evidence base for effective treatment is well established and much of it can be delivered at a primary care level. A high-performing primary care system can reduce acute deterioration in people living with asthma, COPD or CHF and prevent their admission to hospital. Reduction in this rate could be representative of stronger PHC services as well as stronger linkages between hospital care and ambulatory care services for these conditions. Reductions in hospital utilization for ambulatory sensitive conditions must be interpreted in context to ensure that this does not reflect overall reductions in hospitalization rates due to access barriers (financial, geographic, etc.). This should be monitored in conjunction with outcomes (including cause specific morbidity and mortality) for these conditions to ensure that reductions in hospitalization do not reflect poorer care quality. OECD countries, others would require data collection Administrative data OECD Health Care Quality Indicators

27 27. Completeness of reporting by facilities Percentage of facilities that submit reports within the required deadline Creating an enabling environment/ Strengthening information systems and knowledge management Number of facilities reporting monthly within a time period Denominator Total number of facilities Completeness of reporting provides information for decision making and service planning for patient care.

Indicator may be subject to reporting bias, i.e. presence of a service improvement practice in a facility does not establish whether it is effective at improving quality of care. None currently recommended as part of core module to start data collection 2017 Health facility survey; accreditation records Health Facility Assessments indicators and methods (Aug 2016)

29 29. Health worker density and distribution by cadre Number of health workers per 1,000 population (physicians, nurses and midwives, community health workers, etc.) Creating an enabling environment/ Reorienting the health workforce Number of health workers by population Denominator Total population Calculation: N/D * Health workforce matched to population need is a key building block for the formation of an effective health system.

Ideal ratio not defined as populations may have different health workforce needs. In addition, models of care and licensing/accreditation schemes may be prescriptive of these ratios rather than allowing them to be flexible to population needs. May affect comparison and interpretation between settings. 90 countries Labour force surveys Health workforce registry or database WHO National Health Workforce Accounts: A Handbook, GHO, OECD
