Abstract
Background District splitting (DS) began in 1962 and intensified in 1997 during implementation of decentralization. This legislative process focuses on geographical demarcation. The health system, organized along local government structures, was re-organized as a result of DS. However, this study explored how the health workforce, as a component of the local government health system, re-organized following district splitting.
