Lesson
Greater effort early on to define targeted outcomes and using a well-structured framework can yield a better tool to assess program results. The results framework presenting clarity in project design, well-defined outcomes, and outputs with appropriate targets and indicators, is imperative in monitoring project achievements. This is necessary to help provide clear assessment and guidance on how to systematically track progress especially on how success will be assessed.

Lesson
To ensure the formulation of a well-grounded design, a thorough preparatory assessment could be undertaken by including the political environment and the risk of corruption in a country. In cases where corruption is perceived as being high, support for better performance and greater accountability in public financial management systems plays a crucial role.

Lesson
Private health providers can play an important role when developing a network of quality health services in rural and other underserved areas. The needs of private sector entities and small-scale health providers, however, are different. Easy access to credit by small-scale providers, in itself, is insufficient. Needs and constraints also should be addressed. This covers (i) technical support—referral networks, continuous training, and colleagues’ advice; and (ii) family support—access to schools for children, work opportunities for the spouse, safety, and other needs and constraints.

Lesson
The project was complex and involved many stakeholders (DBP, DOH and PHIC, LGUs, private sector venture, small-scale private providers, and local beneficiaries). A careful stakeholder analysis involving consultations with all participants to identify needs, constraints, and potential benefits could have improved the project design, its assumptions, and risk mitigation strategies.

Lesson
Project ownership is important. With DBP, a financial institution as executing agency, DOH did not have primary responsibility for this health project. Inter-sector collaboration can bring significant benefits but is not easy: it requires significant efforts and a clear governance structure with specific reporting and coordination mechanisms. Leadership is essential and needs to be carefully established to ensure effectiveness and efficiency. The HSIAC should have been more actively involved and better coordinated the project.

While it provides the benefit of flexibility (i.e., deferring subprograms wherein the program design cannot be fully defined at appraisal), care must be taken to maximize the achievement of critical objectives even if ongoing subprograms are canceled.
