Abstract
In this paper, authors have used operation definition of Supportive supervision to studying its role in improving immunization coverage in developing country settings. Comparison of immunization coverage before and after the initiation of supportive supervision is analyzed. Despite of methodological limitations, the study infers that supportive supervision improves immunization coverage and also serves an efficient tool to strengthen the local health system.
