HSPM: Health Services and Policy Monitor: changes in the health care system in 30 countries

Duration: Jul 2015 - ongoing

Background

The Health Systems and Policy Monitor provides an up-to-date description of changes in the health care system of some 30 countries. This provides up-to-date information on reforms and changes that are particularly policy relevant.

Aim

The HSPM facilitates the comparison of healthcare systems and contributes to the development of health care systems, among other things by (evidence based) learning from experiences in other countries.

HSPM Network

The HSPM Network consists of an international group of renowned institutes with a great deal of experience in the analysis of health systems and health care management. Nivel provides the contribution for the Netherlands.

Results

A systematic system description (health system review) of the health care system, which will be drawn up for each country approximately once every five years. Relevant changes to the system after the publication of the health system review will be published on the HSPM website.
