It intends to identify any challenges in this area and emphasize the importance of tracking performance and accountability for the resources spent. The focus of this report is aligned with the efforts of the ministry of health (MOH) to strengthen the grassroots health system and, hence, with the World Bank’s larger engagement in Vietnam on primary care strengthening. This study used the framework developed by the PHC performance initiative (PHCPI) to organize the scorecard based on specific performance domains and pre-identified core indicators, complemented or adjusted to the Vietnamese context. The indicators were grouped into a national scorecard and a provincial scorecard, which was piloted in two provinces, Bac Giang and Yen Bai. Vietnam has achieved impressive health gains with the reduction of under-five mortality (U5M) rate and maternal mortality ratio (MMR) and an increase in life expectancy; however, it needs to accelerate progress if it is to meet the health-related sustainable development goals (SDGs). Vietnam has made significant achievements in increasing the coverage of many maternal and child health (MCH) services; however, nutrition indicators are lagging behind and data are scarce on coverage of noncommunicable disease (NCD) services. 2020-06-24T17:18:56Z 2020-06-24T17:18:56Z 2019-07 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/585101592197992975/Vietnam-National-and-Provincial-Primary-Health-Care-Scorecards http://hdl.handle.net/10986/33964 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Other Health Study East Asia and Pacific Vietnam
