THE Health Service Commission (HSC) has begun reviewing the first year of its 2026-2030 strategic plan to assess progress, identify implementation gaps and set priorities for the coming year.
The workshop is being held in Nyanga and is bringing together stakeholders to assess annual performance, evaluate resource utilisation and align its programmes with national development priorities.
HSC Secretary Dr Christopher Pasi said the exercise is important in ensuring that the Commission remains focused on delivering results while addressing areas where targets have not yet been met.
“This is our plan, our road map, and therefore a shared responsibility. It will not be a failure of one person or one department, or an achievement of one person or one department, but a collective achievement,” he said.
Dr Pasi said the review would also inform planning and budgeting for 2027, noting that allocating budgets before departments develop their plans often results in activities being fitted into predetermined financial ceilings.
He called for a more integrated planning process in which priorities are established first, followed by budgeting, implementation and monitoring, adding that stakeholder contributions would help the Commission establish realistic targets and strengthen teamwork.
