Strengthening routine data reporting in private hospitals in Lagos, Nigeria
The availability of routine health information is critical for effective health planning, especially in resource-limited countries. Nigeria adopted the web-based District Health Information System (DHIS) to harmonize the collection, analysis and storage of data for informed decision-making. However, only 44% of all private hospitals in Lagos State reported to the DHIS despite constituting 90% of all health facilities in the state. To bridge this …
Rethinking malaria
The global disruptions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the stagnation of progress of global malaria elimination efforts have provided an opportunity to rethink several aspects of the global malaria program, including its governance at all levels, from the community to the nation and to the world. Approaching this issue requires an examination of the critical governance factors that affect malaria elimination as well as lessons t…
From Theory to Implementation
As countries continue to invest in quality improvement (QI) initiatives in health facilities, it is important to acknowledge the role of context in implementation. We conducted a qualitative study between February 2019 and January 2020 to explore how a QI initiative was adapted to enable implementation in three facility types: primary health centres, public hospitals and private facilities in Lagos State, Nigeria. Despite a common theory of chang…
Evidence from the Kaduna State Health Accounts on the pattern of sub-national health spending in Nigeria, 2016
Health accounts provide accurate estimates of health expenditure, which are important for effective resource allocation and planning in the health sector. In Nigeria, four rounds of health accounts have been conducted at the national level. However, the national estimates do not necessarily reflect realities at the subnational level and may only provide limited information for decision making at that level. This study highlights the pattern of he…

Integration of targeted health interventions into health systems
The benefits of integrating programmes that emphasize specific interventions into health systems to improve health outcomes have been widely debated. This debate has been driven by narrow binary considerations of integrated (horizontal) versus non-integrated (vertical) programmes, and characterized by polarization of views with protagonists for and against integration arguing the relative merits of each approach. The presence of both integrated a…
