Methodological Evaluation of District Hospitals Systems in Senegal Using Quasi-Experimental Design for Efficiency Measurement

District hospitals in Senegal are crucial for healthcare provision but face challenges in efficiency. A meta-analysis employing quasi-experimental design to measure efficiency gains across selected districts. Efficiency varied significantly, with some hospitals showing efficiency improvements of up to 20% in resource utilization. Quasi-experimental designs offer robust methods for assessing district hospital performance and identifying areas needing improvement. District health authorities should focus on training programmes and technology integration to enhance operational efficiencies. district hospitals, efficiency measurement, Senegal, quasi-experimental design, resource utilization Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
