Key performance indicators (KPIs) are quantitative and qualitative measures that help organizations track progress towards strategic goals. KPIs provide a measurement tool to assess an organization's success. Good KPIs should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. In the health sector, well-designed KPIs help decision makers assess quality of care by establishing baselines, setting performance standards and targets, and measuring improvements over time. Common health sector KPIs include patient satisfaction, facility management, staff performance, and budget management. For KPIs to be effective, organizations need to ensure they have specific goals, a method for data collection, accountability, and review processes in place.
