Improving data for quality care when resources are stretched

There's a real drive to strengthen quality of care in facilities around the world. However, no matter where you are, improving healthcare depends on quality data—and collecting and using that data can be challenging without the time and expertise. In this podcast, we explore how different healthcare systems, especially those with limited resources, are tackling the challenge of data collection and use head-on.   The BMJ has partnered with the World Health Organization and the World Bank on a Collection on Quality of Care. This podcast, the second in a series exploring themes from the Collection, features researchers and implementers from Ghana, Qatar, and the US. They share insights on improving and using data in resource-constrained environments, offering valuable perspectives relevant to healthcare systems worldwide facing similar challenges.   Provenance statement: This podcast is part of a Collection on Quality of Care proposed and funded by the World Health Organization and the World Bank. The BMJ commissioned, edited, and published the podcast. Emma Veitch, Rachael Hinton and Duncan Jarvis were the lead editors for The BMJ.
