DEVELOPMENT AND PILOTING A CLIENT SATISFACTION ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR THE HEALTH SECTOR IN UGANDA
Ministry Of Finance Planning And Economic Development
Enabel Belgian Development Agency
The health sector in Uganda is keen to ensure that health services are responsive to the needs of the population served. Client satisfaction with health services is a key indicator for monitoring the Health Sector Development Plan. Availability of regular and timely data on client satisfaction with health services is critical if the service is to be made rnore responsive to client needs. This provides a mechanism for improving quality and enhancing the concept of patient centred care. There is currently no gold standard instrument for measuring client satisfaction. The sector would therefore need to develop and adopt an objective and tested tool that takes into account the relevant dimensions of client satisfaction when measuring Client satisfaction in the sector.
The Ministry of Health has received support from the Belgo-Uganda Study and Consultancy Fund and would like to develop and pilot a client satisfaction assessrnent tool for the health sector in Uganda. The Ministry of Health intends to apply some of the resources to acquire services of a consultancy firm as a short term support to the assignment under the Ministry of Health Task Force in irnplementing the task.
This consultancy shall be used to carry-out the following main tasks: 1. Develop a client satisfaction measurernent instrument by modifying the SERVQUAL instrument to suit Uganda's Health Sector. 2. Develop a customised (web-based) data collection tool for measuring client satisfaction. 3. Use the developed tools to conduct a client satisfaction survey for the Health Sector in Uganda for FY 2017/18.
The two entities (MoH and Enabel) are looking for a team of consultants (under a consultancy firm) to undertake this task.
