abstract: 'Objective
|
||||
|
||||
Design and build a strategy construction and evaluation software system
|
||||
|
||||
to help stakeholders to develop viable strategies to expand (and adapt)
|
||||
|
||||
the Chagas Platform healthcare model through the primary healthcare
|
||||
|
||||
system in Bolivia.
|
||||
|
||||
Methods
|
||||
|
||||
The software was built based on a ranking of medical Interventions and
|
||||
|
||||
Actions (needed to support Interventions'' implementation) needed for
|
||||
|
||||
comprehensive management of Chagas Disease in Bolivia. The ranking was
|
||||
|
||||
performed using a Multi Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methodology
|
||||
|
||||
adapted to the WHO''s building blocks framework. Data regarding the
|
||||
|
||||
criteria and the rankings was obtained through surveys and interviews
|
||||
|
||||
with health care professionals working on Chagas disease. The Analytical
|
||||
|
||||
Hierarchy Process was used to construct the decision criteria weights.
|
||||
|
||||
Data Envelopment Analysis was used to identify the Interventions that
|
||||
|
||||
lay on the efficiency frontier of outcomes and the complexity of
|
||||
|
||||
associated Actions. These techniques were combined with integer
|
||||
|
||||
programing tools using the open-source software R to build a
|
||||
|
||||
decision-making tool to assess the outcomes and complexity of any
|
||||
|
||||
combination of Interventions and Actions. This model and tool were
|
||||
|
||||
applied to data concerning the care of Chagas disease in Bolivia
|
||||
|
||||
collected through surveys of experts. The tool works by loading the data
|
||||
|
||||
from each specific context.
|
||||
|
||||
Results
|
||||
|
||||
The initial set of Interventions and Actions recommended after analysis
|
||||
|
||||
of the survey data was further refined through face-to-face interviews
|
||||
|
||||
with field experts in Bolivia, resulting in a strategy of 18
|
||||
|
||||
Interventions and 15 Actions. Within the WHO model the Leadership and
|
||||
|
||||
Governance building block came up as the one needing more support with
|
||||
|
||||
Actions such as the inclusion of Chagas into Annual Municipal
|
||||
|
||||
Operational Plans by appointing local and provincial coordinators.
|
||||
|
||||
Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
This project established the suitability of the model for constructing
|
||||
|
||||
healthcare strategies. The model could be developed further resulting in
|
||||
|
||||
a decision-making tool for program managers in a wide range of
|
||||
|
||||
healthcare related issues, including neglected and/ or prevalent
|
||||
|
||||
diseases. The tool has the potential to be used at different stages of
|
||||
|
||||
decision making by diverse stakeholders in order to coordinate
|
||||
|
||||
activities needed to address a health problem.

Author summary
|
||||
|
||||
This manuscript presents a strategy construction tool to generate viable
|
||||
|
||||
strategies to expand the Chagas platforms for healthcare pilot through
|
||||
|
||||
the primary healthcare system in Bolivia. Relevance of this work resides
|
||||
|
||||
in the need for performing a rational planification to address Neglected
|
||||
|
||||
Diseases in low- and middle-income countries, by prioritizing
|
||||
|
||||
Interventions and Actions. After gathering and loading the data from
|
||||
|
||||
each specific context and problem, policy makers can use the tool for
|
||||
|
||||
construction or evaluation of strategies using the WHO Building Block
|
||||
|
||||
model. The main comparative advantage is that the model does not only
|
||||
|
||||
include the identification and evaluation of Interventions for the
|
||||
|
||||
comprehensive care of Chagas, but also includes the necessary activities
|
||||
|
||||
in the health system to support the large-scale implementation of them.
|
||||
|
||||
The tool has the potential to be used at different stages of decision
|
||||
|
||||
making to coordinate activities to address a health problem. The tool
|
||||
|
||||
could be adapted for its use in other neglected and/ or prevalent
|
||||
|
||||
diseases or in other locations.'
