Integrated health service delivery programme

Fragmentation of health services is a major cause of poor performance of health services, and thus of the underperformance of health systems in general.

Fragmentation can generate, on its own, or combined with others factors, difficulties in access to services, delivery of services of poor technical quality, irrational and inefficient use of available resources, unnecessary increases in production costs, and low user satisfaction with services received.

In response to the challenges posed by health services fragmentation and to various international mandates and commitments, AHO is developing the initiative on Integrated Delivery Networks with a view to contribute to the strengthening of Health Systems and Services, and thus to the delivery of more accessible, equitable, efficient, and quality health services that better meet the expectations of the population.
