SURE Guide 4 is part of the SURE Guides for Preparing and Using Evidence-Based Policy Briefs. The SURE Guides are intended for those people responsible for preparing and supporting the use of policy briefs and ensuring that decisions about health systems are well-informed by research evidence. The guides focus specifically on these issues in the context of African health systems and the examples used are taken from policy briefs that address important problems in African countries.
SURE Guide 4 provides resources to decide on – and describe – viable policy options for addressing the problem and is organized by the following questions:
• Which policy options should be presented?
• What is known about the impacts of the different policy options?
• How confident can we be about the likely impacts of each of the options?
• How should information about the potential impacts of the different policy options be summarised?
