ثبت نشده
چکیده
DISCLAIMER: Note that these results are descriptive results for the samples collected in the household surveys of the WHO Multi-country Survey Study of Health and Health Systems Responsiveness (Brief survey, N=803). They are not representative for the country as sampling weights were not used. The WHO World Health Survey, which contained a second iteration of the responsiveness questions, did collect information on sampling weights. Responsiveness reports for these surveys will be made available later in 2005. The aim of this descriptive report of the MCSS samples is to give a flavour of the kinds of responsiveness analyses that are feasible; and to stimulate interest ahead of the release of the World Health Survey Responsiveness reports. These reports are aimed at policy-makers -to give them an overview of health system responsiveness.
