Le Cameroun conduit actuellement une évaluation d’impact à grande échelle pour étudier les effets du Financement basé sur la Performance sur les résultats de santé dans le contexte spécifique du Cameroun. Bien que l’évaluation d’impact repose largement sur l’analyse quantitative à ...partir d’enquêtes de base et finale, l’équipe de l’évaluation d’impact a proposé d’introduire une composante qualitative à l’évaluation globale pour creuser en profondeur afin d’obtenir des explications ou explorer des questions spécifiques relatives à l’expérimentation du PBF au Cameroun.
