A Mombasa County case study published by the Council of Governors’ Maarifa Centre describes how a community scorecard at Miritini CDF Health Centre is used to identify service problems and follow up on them. The Community Health Committee discusses service users’ assessments with health workers, and agreed steps are recorded in an action plan.

The report says average registration time fell from 15 minutes to 10 minutes and facility delivery records rose from 23 to 66 within three months. It also reports four newly deployed nurses and two new maternity beds. These are findings presented in the case study from facility records and accounts; it does not describe a comparison group or experimental design, so the report alone does not establish a causal effect of the scorecard.
