The Institute of Medicine (IOM) specified six domains of quality: safety, timeliness, effectiveness, efficiency, equity and patient/family-centredness [10].
The IOM specified six attributes of quality, differing somewhat from Donabedian's seven: safety, timeliness, effectiveness, efficiency, equity and patient/family-centerdness.
Besides patient safety, when added to the requirements of timeliness, effectiveness, efficiency, equitableness and patient-centered care [ 19], physicians' workloads often increase and shortage of physician manpower emerges.
It uses mixed quantitative and qualitative methods, guided by key policy concerns such as: access, complexity, cost, distribution of benefits, timeliness, effectiveness, equity, policy consistency, and community and political acceptability.
We will use mixed quantitative and qualitative methods, guided by key policy concerns: access, complexity, cost, distribution of benefits, timeliness, effectiveness, equity, policy consistency, and community and political acceptability [ 14].
A modified version of the OECD DAC evaluation criteria is used to assess UNICEF's response against relevance and appropriateness, timeliness, effectiveness, efficiency, coverage, coherence and sustainability (or 'connectedness').32 It was not possible to evaluate the wider impact of UNICEF's interventions, although consideration of impact is included in the analysis of sustainability.
Still, there are the questions of timeliness and effectiveness.
The evaluation assesses the response in terms of timeliness, appropriateness, effectiveness, coverage, coordination, coherence, connectedness, and efficiency.
Among those who contract influenza, subsequent illness and death may be influenced by underlying factors and conditions and by the timeliness and effectiveness of various treatment modalities.
They should also incorporate details about the tools available to providers to monitor timeliness and effectiveness of electronic referral communication [ 19].
It becomes critical that the main purpose of a surveillance method lies in its timeliness and effectiveness of detecting new outbreaks or epidemics.
