Health Systems in Action insights
The Health Systems in Action insights series supports Member States in the WHO European Region that are not in the European Union.
The Insights for each country are intended to:
- provide core information and data on health systems succinctly and accessibly;
- outline the country health system context in which WHO Europe’s Programme of Work (EPW) is set;
- flag key concerns, progress and challenges health system by health system; and
- build a baseline for comparisons, so that member states can see how their health systems develop over time and in relation to other countries.
The pilot series is co-produced by the WHO Regional Office for Europe and the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies. It draws on the knowledge and understanding of the WHO Country Offices and of the Division of Country Health Policies and Systems (CPS), the Barcelona Office for Health System Strengthening and other WHO/Europe technical programmes; as well as the Health in Transition series and the work of the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies. The Insights follow a common template that provides detailed guidance and allows comparison across countries.
