UHC Service Package Delivery and Implementation (SPDI) Tool

Using the UHC Compendium data, the  UHC Service Package Delivery & Implementation (SPDI) Tool supports countries to develop well-designed national health service packages. SPDI is a selection interface where users will access data from the global UHC Compendium database and select content for inclusion in their benefit package. It supports the design of more implementable packages that include health promotion and prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care services across the life course.

Global estimates of cost-effectiveness will also be added in the future to guide benefit package selections in SPDI.

 

OneHealth Tool and Generalized Cost-Effectiveness Analysis

The OneHealth Tool (OHT) is a software package that is designed for strategic health planning in low- and middle-income countries. The OneHealth Tool incorporates demographic, disease and health system modules into one platform to produce evidence for interventions. Costs, budget impact, and systems requirements can be outputted; and when there are disease impact modules, cost-effectiveness analysis is feasible as well. As a result, the OHT is a tool that facilitates quantitative analysis of some of the most commonly used criteria in health priority-setting and benefit package design.

The OneHealth Tool is being rebuilt within an online platform and as part of this process, new information on health services and cost components will be imported from the UHC Compendium database.

Country contextualization of WHO-CHOICE cost-effectiveness analyses can also be conducted within the same platform using the Generalized Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (GCEA) tool. The tool is pre-populated with default country-specific data on prices, quantities and epidemiology, which are modifiable by the user. Contact the WHO CHOICE team at whochoice@who.int for more information.

Disclaimer:  WHO does not provide guidelines and reference documents for all potential UHC actions. The content within the Compendium is based on the current guidance from WHO. The intent is to provide an overview of health actions that countries may wish to consider for UHC, for those areas in which WHO currently provides guidance. The fact that an action is listed in the Compendium does not necessarily mean that it is applicable in all settings. Likewise, the fact that an action is not currently included in the Compendium does not mean that it is not a worthwhile investment. The Compendium will be updated over time as WHO guidance evolves.
