Abstract
Background and aim: Indices are necessary prerequisites for evaluation and assessment of health policies. One of the main issues in this regard is the inspection of pharmaceuticals. The aim of this study was to provide an indicator-based model of the assessment of paragraph 5 of the general health policy document of Iran.
Method: This qualitative study used literature review, expert panel, stakeholders analysts, policy review and the Status quo analysis assessments. Drafts of indices derived from the literature review were finalized by an expert panel and stakeholder delegates.
Results: All keywords were described and a comprehensive description of generic policy were defined by a board from the Iranian Academy of Medical Sciences. Five indices were finalized for demand management parts of paragraph 5 whilst 10 indices were for the policy part and13 indices were ascribed to the assessment of general policy.
Conclusion: Emphasis on effective interventions and determination of key indices play a crucial role in achieving policy goals. |
