Summary In recent years there have been a number of important developments within the South African health sector. Health Systems Research is a critical tool at this time to evaluate the impact of new policy change, as well as to assist in the implementation of new legislation and guidelines. This report provides an overview of the findings of research funded by the research programme of the HST during 1998. The proceedings of the 1998 HST National Conference have been integrated into this report, which begins with a summary of the new strategic direction of the Health Systems Trust and then provides two summaries of evaluations undertaken of the research programme. The main findings of the research projects are then presented.
