Overview

Health planning and management encompasses the systematic processes of designing, organizing, implementing, and evaluating health services and systems to improve population health outcomes and ensure efficient resource allocation. Research published in Public Health International on this topic examines quality improvement strategies in healthcare facilities, including evaluations using established frameworks such as the Donabedian model in private sector settings. The journal's work addresses the development of population-based screening programs for diseases like colorectal cancer, exploring implementation roadmaps in specific national contexts. Studies investigate barriers and facilitators affecting community health workers' delivery of maternal and child health services, as well as factors influencing health data quality in public facilities. Additional research explores the integration of traditional healthcare practices with national health systems and examines women's empowerment in healthcare delivery. The journal also publishes work on risk management during hospital drug administration and on reproductive health service utilization among rural adolescent populations. This body of research reflects the multifaceted nature of health planning and management, spanning quality assurance, program development, workforce performance, data systems, and cultural considerations that collectively shape effective health service delivery across diverse settings.
