Data Source Notes

The specific list of vaccines facilities are assessed against varies depending on the data source. We chose to include values from SARA, SDI, and SPA facility assessments where available, recognizing that there are slight definitional differences.

Service Availability and Readiness Assessment (SARA): SARA is a health facility assessment tool designed to assess and monitor the service availability and readiness of the health sector and to generate evidence to support the planning and managing of a health system. SARA is designed as a systematic survey to generate a set of tracer indicators of service availability and readiness. Click here to learn more about what is included in SARA surveys.

Service Delivery Indicators (SDI). SDI is a set of health indicators that examine health workers’ effort and ability, as well as the availability of key inputs and resources that contribute to the functioning of a health facility. Data are derived from facility surveys. Click here to learn more about what is included in SDI surveys.

Service Provision Assessment (SPA). SPA is a survey is a health facility assessment that provides a comprehensive overview of a country’s health service delivery. It collects information on the overall availability of different facility-based health services in a country and their readiness to provide those services.
