Se extiende a la región continental el modelo de inspecciones y evaluación trimestral de los establecimientos sanitarios públicos.

The Ministry of Health and Health Infrastructure, through the General Inspectorate of Health Services, has established a quarterly schedule of Technical Regulatory Inspections at public hospitals and health centers in the Mainland Region, continuing the oversight and evaluation model that has been implemented in the Island Region.

This measure is part of the process of operationalizing health districts and aims to strengthen the management, oversight, and operational capacity of public health facilities through periodic evaluations based on technical indicators and compliance standards.

The model includes a scoring methodology, with a benchmark threshold of 80%, which makes it possible to identify facilities and services that fall below the established standard, determine the areas requiring improvement, and establish the corresponding corrective measures and follow-up mechanisms.

The inspections cover areas essential to the functioning of health services, including: the supply of medicines and medical supplies, laboratories, human resources, administration and finance, the Expanded Program on Immunization, maternal health, HIV/AIDS, the Health Information System, and malaria control, among others.

The experience gained in the Insular Region, through evaluations in the health districts of Malabo, Baney, Luba, and Riaba, has made it possible to establish monitoring mechanisms, compare results, and identify areas requiring interventions to improve the management and delivery of health services.

By extending this model to the Continental Region, the Ministry seeks to consolidate a national system of periodic oversight, strengthen health management at the district level, and promote more efficient and results-oriented service delivery, in line with the objectives of the National Health Development Plan (PNDS).
