The 2010 International Health Policy Survey, the 13th in an annual series commissioned by The Commonwealth Fund, will assess public perceptions of health system performance and responsiveness in 11 countries. The survey will ask about access to care, cost, comparative effectiveness, and quality of care received, and the analysis of results will focus on the extent to which variations reflect differences in each nation’s system of care delivery and insurance coverage. The findings, to be released at the 2010 International Symposium, should generate substantial interest among health ministers, policymakers, researchers, and the media, and will also inform the work of the Fund’s Commission on a High Performance Health System. A paper discussing the survey results will be submitted to Health Affairs. Cofunding will be sought from foundation and government partners in the survey countries.
