Abstract

Background: In 2005, the Colombian Ministry of Health (MoH), concerned with slow progress toward the MDG target to reduce maternal mortality by 2015 initiated the implementation of an Extreme Maternal Morbidity Surveillance Model (EMMSM). In 2013, we undertook an evaluation of this process at the request of an international agency (IA) and the MoH. This paper describes the policymaking process and possible unintended local effects.
