A key policy challenge in most OECD countries is to improve outcomes of the health care system
while containing its costs. Benchmarking countries and identifying best practices to enhance public
spending cost-effectiveness would, in this regard, be a useful exercise. This paper presents three main
options for measuring effectiveness in the health care sector, discusses their pros and cons, including data
availability and the possibility of whether these options would allow an analysis of how the institutional
setting shapes spending effectiveness.
