Health System Performance

Health system performance refers to how well a healthcare system delivers services, maintains health, and responds to the needs of the population. It can be assessed through various factors, including access to care, quality of services, efficiency in resource use, and health outcomes. Strong performance means individuals can easily get the care they need, it’s effective, and health conditions improve over time. Key goals include reducing wait times, ensuring patient safety, and promoting overall public health, all while managing costs effectively. Ultimately, a high-performing health system enhances the well-being of the community it serves.
