Methods, evidence, and data

Source traceability, coverage, citations, locators, source versions, and annotation materials are grouped here so the organizational synthesis remains the primary reading flow.

Directly mapped computable objects

Source-linked mappings drive the visible country synthesis and remain open for annotation. Canonical registries are reported separately so a zero in that publication layer is never mistaken for absent evidence.

Structured country layers with explicit fields for analysis
ObjectCountMeaning
Source-linked analytical mappings10Cited mappings rendered across the organization, decision, delivery, network, autonomy, and reform views.
Source-linked analytical object rows37Named graph nodes and edges, function assignments, decision cells, autonomy cells, pathways, and reform events supplied by those mappings.
Actors0Actors with explicit identity, territory, time, and evidence lineage.
Relationships0Evidence-backed actor-to-actor or actor-to-provider edges.
Decision rights0Actor, function, decision, and role assignments.
Provider organizations0Named or typed providers with evidence-backed ownership and management.
Autonomy records0Decision-domain authority paired with an autonomous-from actor.
Accountability records0Accountable-to actor and mechanism.
Referral designs0Formal referral, choice, bypass, and counter-referral arrangements.
Observed flows0Observed referral, bypass, mobility, or network flows.

Source traceability and coverage

These six documentation measures describe the traceability available for displayed materials: domain coverage, public URLs, exact locators, source versions, and typed mappings. They do not measure health-system performance, source truth, institutional quality, or country success. A zero never means that an actor, authority, relationship, service, or activity is absent.

Documentation status: Explicit analytical mappings. All six source-traceability measures meet or exceed 80%. Materials remain open for annotation and country-specific refinement.
