Agenda item 3.5 16 January 2002
Assessment of health systems’ performance
The Executive Board,
Taking note of resolution EB107.R8, on Health systems’ performance assessment;
Having analysed the report “Assessment of health systems’ performance: report of the peer review”;1
Appreciating the suggestions of the advisory group on assessment of health systems’
performance regarding the timetable for completion of the next report, namely that the Secretariat could produce a different type of report in October 2002 that would summarize the work undertaken in relation to resolution EB107.R8, and that the next reporting on the performance of countries’ health systems would follow in 2003;
Noting with satisfaction the measures already taken by the Director-General in accordance with resolution EB107.R8;
Bearing in mind, none the less, that because of the radical methodological changes already proposed and yet to be implemented in the framework of the new report, much further work needs to be accomplished;
REQUESTS the Director-General:
(1) to produce an interim report to be submitted to the Executive Board at its 111th session that shall summarize the work undertaken in relation to resolution EB107.R8, and to present the next statistical annex reporting on the performance of countries’ health systems for publication, after consultation, later in 2003;
(2) to provide the report to the health authorities of Member States 15 days before the intended date of publication.
