The decentralization of public health services should consider the setting up of a system of evaluation and monitoring of quality and performance of public services, system that should be based on the use of performance indicators. To measure the effectiveness of decentralized public health services and to what extent the public services can now comply with strategic objectives, is necessary to identify and measure some performance indicators. We cannot speak further of decentralization in the health system, we cannot adopt new strategies until we determine whether what has been achieved so far has been a success or not. In this article we aim to identify ways of measuring the parameters targeting the transition from the deconcentrated system to the decentralized one with regard of public health service.
