However, the decision-making process for HIV/AIDS resource allocation involves several decision-makers each with their own goals, priorities, processes and level of influence.
The present study is part of the formative phase of PRIME, which concentrates on assessing the priorities, processes and building blocks of developing such mental health care plan.
Includes identifying high priority process improvement targets, developing action plans, designating responsibilities, establishing timelines.
They operated a priority process of question generation through a web-based interface, facilitated through locality leads and workshops.
Of the latter, 13 sought to describe and evaluate the priority setting process, 7 sought only to describe the priority setting process and 2 sought only to evaluate the priority setting process.
An outcome evaluation should be integrated into the priority setting process to provide evidence for future priority setting processes.
Whether specific research questions or broad priority areas are generated as an outcome of the priority setting process, these should be determined based on the purpose and context of the priority setting process [ 6, 7].
Walton et al [ 4] and Martin [ 3] have outlined a number of criteria to consider in a priority setting process: 1. Documentation and legitimacy: Was the priority setting process well documented, transparent and replicable?
However, the current priority setting process for FMNCH at district levels are wanting in several aspects rendering the priority setting process for FMNCH inefficient and unfair (or unsuccessful).
To improve district level priority setting process for the FMNCH interventions, we recommend a fundamental revision of the current FMNCH interventions priority setting process.
