Needs assessment: Identifying the health needs of a population through data collection and analysis. Priority setting: Determining which health issues require immediate attention based on severity and impact. Budgeting: Allocating financial resources to different health programs and interventions. Implementation: Deploying resources to the targeted areas and ensuring their effective use. Monitoring and evaluation: Assessing the impact of the allocated resources and making necessary adjustments.
