Abstract
For a developing country like Ghana, which has chosen the
PHC strategy to achieve health for all by 2000 AD, the management
of the district health system is understandably of vital
importance. The government's support of its health policy is
shown in its decentralization moves on the past few years. In
1995, not only personnel, but now, the financial administration
has been brought to the district level. Health managers and
teams therefore now bear the responsibility of managing the
district health system. To do this successfully, information
generation as well as its use in the widest sense is very
essential. It is necessary to find out if this realization is
present, for indeed a lot of data and information is commonly
being already generated in the health system.
