This policy therefore will provide guidelines, which will direct the provision of diagnostic imaging services at different levels of health care delivery system for efficient and effective management of patients which consequently will improve the health status of the Malawian population.The policy is in tandem with “Health Sector Strategic Plan II 2017-2022”(HSSP II), and National Health Policy, the goal of which is to promote the quality of life of all Malawians through the delivery of an Essential Health Package. The document, will therefore guide Government, cooperating partners, and other key stakeholders in the health sector with regard to the establishment and improvement of diagnostic imaging services in the country.
