Health Policy Evaluation

Health policy evaluation is the process of systematically assessing how well a health policy or program achieves its intended goals, such as improving health outcomes, increasing access, or reducing costs. It involves collecting and analyzing data to determine the effectiveness, efficiency, and impact of the policy. The goal is to understand what works, what doesn’t, and why, so policymakers can make informed decisions about continuing, modifying, or implementing new health strategies. This helps ensure resources are used effectively to improve the healthcare system and population health.
