Following the acceptance of universal health coverage as a worldwide aim, countries must address the quality of care offered by their health systems if they wish to improve health outcomes. The growth of health care spending and an increase in service coverage were both sparked by the Millennium Development Goals. The scope of global health ambition included in the Sustainable Development Goals, however, necessitates that policymakers go beyond coverage to comprehend what occurs when individuals arrive at a health institution or establish contact with health services. High-quality health systems are those that "optimise health in a particular environment by consistently delivering care that improves or preserves health, being respected and trusted by all people," according to the Lancet Global Health Commission on High Quality Health Systems in the SDG Era4. New approaches to defining, measuring, and enhancing the performance of health systems are also suggested by the Commission [1]. It says that rather than inputs like employees and equipment, the quality of health systems should be largely assessed in terms of the care procedures and health consequences. We set out to investigate how, since 2000; important health systems frameworks and policies have incorporated the idea of health system quality. We looked for World Health Publications, frameworks, and reports on the WHO website that mentioned health systems in the title or as one of their primary objectives. We limited our attention to the WHO since it is the top technical health agency of the UN, focuses on health systems, and plays a significant role in global health [2].
