IMPLEMENTATION STATUS OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE UNDER ONE ROOF (PHCUOR): SCORECARD 4

Abstract

Primary Health Care Under One Roof (PHCOUR) is a reform agenda that addresses the fragmentation in the delivery of Primary Health Care at the State and LGA levels by integrating all PHC structures, programmes and funding under the State Primary Health Care Board (SPHCB) within the framework of a decentralized health system. The policy is based on the principle of "three ones" - one management, one plan and one monitoring and evaluation sysytem. The purpose of the PHCUOR scorecard is to systematically assist the States and FCT identify areas within the PHCOUR framework that they require support. The scorecard is also a peer review mechanism and advocacy tool to all State governments and relevant stakeholders for the purpose of achieving a seamless implementation of the policy nationwide.
