In 2018, MCSP completed a review of health management information systems (HMIS) tools in 24 countries to identify the key maternal and newborn health data elements that public health facilities collect and report. This review expands on that work, using the same methodology to identify data elements related to family planning that are available in HMISs. This review was restricted to key areas of interest, such as data on the type of clients receiving family planning services, family planning services provided to women following a birth or abortion, and type of contraceptive methods given.
