Health Planning and Management is a core public health function that involves the systematic assessment of population health needs and the strategic organization of resources to address them effectively. It includes setting health priorities, developing policies and programs, allocating financial and human resources, and monitoring health system performance. Health planning relies on data, epidemiological evidence, and community input to design interventions that improve access, quality, and efficiency of healthcare services. Health management ensures that planned activities are implemented successfully through effective leadership, coordination, and evaluation. In public health, strong health planning and management help reduce health disparities, strengthen health systems, and improve preparedness for emergencies. By aligning health services with population needs, this approach supports sustainable development, cost-effective care, and improved health outcomes at local, national, and global levels.
