Sample sizes for health financing pilot evaluation data sources, by facility type

Data source	No change		Fees removed
	Baseline	Follow-up	Baseline	Follow-up
Facility assessments	14	14	6	6
Patient exit interviews	123	136	58	60
Household survey	479	796	198	573
HMIS data on facility visits	70a	70	8	8

Note: Only 54.2% of households in facilities where fees were subsequently removed and 78.8% of facilities with no subsequent change in fee levels had heard of the pilot facility at baseline and were included in the household survey results. At follow-up, nearly all households had heard of the pilot facility, and an additional village was added to some facilities for data collection, significantly increasing the sample size at follow-up.

^aIncludes 15 health financing pilot facilities and 55 other ‘control’ facilities in each province where fee levels did not change over the course of the pilot study.
