Monitoring and Evaluation for Viral Hepatitis B and C: Recommended Indicators and Framework

To monitor and evaluate the Global Health Sector Strategy (GHSS) on viral hepatitis, the World Health Organization (WHO) proposes a monitoring and evaluation framework. This framework should facilitate collection and analysis of standardized data with a balance between the need to remain parsimonious and obtain the minimum information required.

The result chain is a logical framework built along a sequence of inputs (e.g. resources, infrastructure) and processes (e.g. training, logistics systems) that translate into outputs (e.g. availability of services and interventions), which lead to outcomes (e.g. intervention coverage) and, ultimately, to impact (e.g. mortality).
