    Analysis and assessment of the performance of the Municipal Leadership and Governance Program (MLGP) partner municipalities in improving health outcomes
    Araneta, Francine Nicole M.; Bebita, Valerie Anne N.; Endoma, Vivienne F.; Estanda, Marvyn Kerziel A.; Gupeteo, Mary Pauline Kriszl E.; Lebosada , Billy John F.; Magsipoc, Karla Mae B.; Pabello, Kimberly T.; Samoro, Karmela Marie G.; Villaruel, Rigel Kent Q. (2016-05)
    The Zuellig Family Foundation through the Municipal Leadership and Governance Program (MLGP) aims to bridge the gap between the Filipinos and the promise of universal health care through the local health managers. They developed a local health scheme with focus on the World Health Organization’s six building blocks of health system so the country can achieve the Millennium Development Goals on health by 2015. However, there are still no available methods that can measure the success of health programs such as the MLGP. In order to address this issue, the researchers proposed to quantify and assess the health outcomes and the municipality performance. Heath outcomes are represented using secondary data provided by the MLGP municipalities on the performance indicators for MDGs for health. Municipality performance is quantified using a scoring system developed by the researchers based on the performance indicators assigned by the ZFF for each WHO building-block and significant improvement in municipality performance was found. The health data was analyzed by comparing the medians of yearly data using non- parametric/distribution-free sign tests. Among the health indicators with complete data for all 28 municipalities, significant difference in health outcomes was found in the data proportions of ratio of facility-based deliveries (FBD), ratio of births attended by births attended by skilled personnel (SBA), contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR), and proportion of fully immunized children (FIC). Maternal and infant mortality ratio, under-five mortality rates and malnutrition rate did not show any significant difference within the two-year intervention time span. Ratio of facility-based deliveries and ratio of births attended by skilled personnel showed significant positive correlations with health financing, health service delivery, and total performance indicators. There is also a significant positive correlation between CPR and leadership and governance, health financing, health human resource, access to medicine and technology, health service delivery and total performance indicators. However, it is interesting to note that the data on fully immunized children showed significant but negative correlations with leadership and governance performance indicators.

    Impact analysis of municipal leadership and governance program (MILGP) among municipalities in the province of Iloilo
    Arancillo, Ulah Lynn F.; Barcelona, Joser John T.; Cabalo, Jori May G.; Cansancio, Marienne Fay T.; Castillo, Marianne Hillary O.; Nufuar, Isa Adelie S.; Palanog, Riananess Q.; Pido, Theo Joseph D.; Repospolo, Melvie Dale P.

    The Zuellig Family Foundation (ZFF) and Department of Health initiated the Municipal Leadership and Governance Program (MLGP), a two-cycle program that aims to guide the Filipinos in achieving health equity and resilience through mentoring and training teams led by local health leaders to improve the six building blocks of health. It also aims to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals through ensuring that municipal health systems be responsive, equitable, and sustainable. This research aims to assess the municipality performance and health outcomes to measure the success of the MLGP intervention. Secondary data representing health outcomes from MLGP and non-MLGP municipalities and consolidated roadmaps were gathered and statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 23. Among the health indicators that were used to evaluate the program under Cycle 1, SBA and FIC showed a statistical significance while the remaining indicators, MMR, IMR, CPR, and FBD did not. All six health outcomes for Cycle 2 municipalities did not show any statistical significance from 2015-2018. Statistically significant improvements were observed on Health Human Resource on Modules 2 and 3, and all the modules in Leadership and Governance of the MLGP Cycle 2 while the other five building blocks did not show statistical significance. Changes in the health outcomes under MLGP Cycle 2 and non-MLGP municipalities showed that they have improved in terms SBA and FBD only. Although significant relationships were found between municipality performance and the health outcome indicators, it must be noted that there are confounding factors not accounted which may have interfered with the results and findings of this study.
