Furthermore, they state that spending on health would not alone achieve the intended results in health without addressing governance. The District Health Administration (DHA), generally called the office of the Civil Surgeon in Bihar, India, is considered a bridging administrative unit from national and state government to the community at village level. Moreover, this is a full-bodied unit with management and the administrative power under the leadership of Chief Medical Officer/Civil Surgeon and Assistant Chief Medical Officer with various health programme officers and support staff. Although health service delivery is seen to have improved in Bihar in recent years, issues such as leadership, management, accountability and transparency would seen to be weak in the DHA. This study aims to recommend specific strategies to strengthen governance of the DHA in Bihar. In doing so, it first identifies and critically analyses the causes of poor governance of the DHA. Moreover, it reviews theories and documented effective examples of strengthening governance in the district level health systems in low and middle income countries. This study finally analyses various strategies for strengthening governance and outlines appropriate governance for the DHA in Bihar.To undertake this study, a framework for strengthening governance developed by Brinkerhoff et al. (2008) is used, which covers leadership and management capacity, accountability, community participation and transparency in decision making. The methodology primarily involves reviewing secondar

Provides the practical tools, advice, and encouragement needed to help district and provincial health management teams tackle - and overcome - problems encountered in their daily work. Addressed to facilitators, the book concentrates on the use of three carefully planned and timed workshops as a framework for identifying and analyzing problems, developing practical solutions, and preparing and subsequently revising plans of action in the light of experience gained. The tools and techniques used at the workshops were developed and refined during two years of testing in the field. Based as it is on practical experience, the manual is also able to provide its readers with encouragement, showing how district managers in a diversity of settings have set about solving key problems of program implementation - whether concerning the maintenance of vehicles or the supply of essential drugs. The manual has three parts. The first, which provides an overview of the learning process detailed in the rest of the book, uses a question-and-answer format to address a wide range of questions the reader may have concerning why the process is needed and what it can achieve. The second part sets out operational guidelines for planning, facilitation, and support. The third part, which constitutes the core of the manual, provides a detailed day-to-day guide to the scheduling of three separate workshops, the topics to be covered in each daily session, and the methods most likely to facilitate group participation and problem-based learning. The practical value of this material is greatly enhanced through the inclusion of a full set of model handouts to be used, after adaptation to the local situation, by participants.

In recent years, many countries, both developed and developing, have engaged in a process of decentralization of health service delivery and/or other functions of the health system. In most cases, decentralization has been adopted to improve accountability to local population, efficiency in service provision, equity in access and resource distribution, or to increase resource mobilization. Ghana has a long history of local government, going back to pre-independence times of the nineteenth century. By 1859 Municipal Councils were established in the major coastal towns of the then Gold Coast. Native Authorities, Councils and Courts were also established to administer law and order under the indirect authority of the colonial government; the limitations of this system was repeatedly put forward in the 1930s and 1940s, and reforms were introduced in 1951 by the Local Government Ordinance (Ahwoi 2010). The government has embarked in a decentralization policy since independence, which was strengthened and amplified by the local government act of 1993 and other legislations. At the present the Government of Ghana (GOG) is committed to strengthen the implementation of decentralization and for that purpose revise and strengthen the policy and regulatory framework governing decentralization. In spite of this long history and successive waves of decentralization reforms, effective decentralization in the country still faces considerable challenges, especially in large social sectors involving large structures. The public health sector is one that has not fully embraced the decentralization model adopted by the GOG, decentralization by devolution to the districts, for a number of reasons that will be discussed in this report. Some functions and responsibilities have been decentralized, but others remain centralized or simply deconcentrated.
