Description:
This study sought to better understand how to sustain provider compliance with standards, using local (Mali) standards (on care for fever and structural quality). The intervention had two parts: a self-assessment instrument that providers used weekly to assess their performance with a feverish client and a review of that performance by a colleague who had observed the consultation. The study found that when used regularly, such an intervention can have a significant effect on compliance. It determined the cost of the intervention to be US$ 250 for 36 providers; some providers felt the three-month intervention was too long. [publisher’s description]
