Development and testing of a composite index to monitor the continuum of maternal health service delivery at provincial and district level in South Africa. PLoS ONE, 16 (5),e0252182. 10.1371/journal.pone.02521821932-620310.1371/journal.pone.0252182http://hdl.handle.net/10566/7256The continuum of care is a recommended framework for comprehensive health service delivery for maternal health, and it integrates health system and social determinants of health. There is a current lack of knowledge on a measurement approach to monitor performance on the framework. In this study we aim to develop and test a composite index for assessing the maternal health continuum in a province in South Africa with the possibility of nationwide use.enMaternal healthHealth service deliverySouth AfricaPublic healthWomenPregnancyDevelopment and testing of a composite index to monitor the continuum of maternal health service delivery at provincial and district level in South AfricaArticle
