Participants rated each item using a seven-point Likert scale (never, very rarely, rarely, occasionally, frequently, very frequently, always) (Additional file 1). 2. Case study scenarios on health policymaking A problem-solving approach was used to assess current health policymaking processes and weaknesses.
Like other HSPA-reports, the DHCPR is fulfilling several functions in the rational model of policymaking: agenda-setting (problem recognition), policy formulation (proposal of solutions), decision-making (choice of solution), policy implementation (putting solution into practice), and policy evaluation (monitoring the results) [ 18].
