However, its reported effects have been varied. Nevertheless, decentralization reforms aimed at providing public hospital management autonomy are increasing in prevalence in many LMICs. The range and form of this autonomy because of these reforms has often produced mixed effects. We set out to understand the range of financial management autonomy that has been granted to public hospitals in decentralized health systems in LMICs, and what forms of accountability arrangements have been used to facilitate this autonomy. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science and CINAHL databases for published articles on this subject. We only included articles that reported empirical findings on hosp...
