Monitoring Universal Health Coverage in the Western Pacific: Framework, Indicators, and Dashboard
World Health Organization | June 2016
Abstract
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have a clear focus on equity-focused monitoring and evaluation to ensure that no one is left behind. The United Nations member states have agreed on a range of indicators to track progress toward health for all in the SDGs. Universal health coverage is a specifi c target within SDG 3 and as countries move toward it they need to monitor the performance of the health system. To guide the monitoring of progress toward universal health coverage and to make results more comparable within the region, the World Health Organization Regional Offi ce for the Western Pacifi c (WPRO) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) are developing a regional monitoring framework and a proposed set of core indicators. This report introduces the framework and indicators, and looks at early country experiences of implementation.
