Monitoring health services

Overview

Countries are facing a multitude of questions that must be addressed to prepare for and respond to COVID-19 while maintaining other essential health services across the life course. Key decisions and actions must be informed by accurate and timely data on health service delivery and utilization throughout all phases of the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, WHO is coordinating efforts to support countries to strengthen continuous health system and service monitoring in the context of COVID-19.

This page is regularly updated based on new scientific findings as the epidemic evolves.
