Using a Set-Aside to Encourage the Evaluation of Public Health Service Programs.

Riggin, Leslie J. C.; And Others

Evaluation and the Health Professions, v18 n1 p3-12 Mar 1995

In October 1994, legislation established a requirement that Public Health Services (PHS) programs spend at least 0.2% of appropriated funds on program evaluation. Legislative changes are a result of a study of the use of PHS set-aside funds from 1988 through 1992. They are intended to encourage more and better evaluation. (SLD)
