The “National Policy for Quality and safety in Health” is a key document that provides a guiding framework to support all the efforts made to ensure patient safety, quality assurance and improvement in health care and services in Cambodia. It does so by streamlining and setting the direction for activities of the public and private sectors, so as other stakeholders, while including the alignment with international initiatives for patient safety and quality of care. This guiding framework is translated into a Quality Improvement Master Plan that articulates and harmonizes the implementation of all building blocks of quality improvement activities.  As a result, it is expected that the public, especially the poor and vulnerable groups, will have more equitable access to health services with appropriate quality so as defined in this framework and guiding principles.
