El documento presenta una evaluación de la metodología desarrollada para apoyar a los prestadores de servicios de salud en el uso de una herramienta web. Esta herramienta permite analizar la capacidad instalada y suficiencia para la implementación de las Rutas Integrales de Atención en Salud (RIAS), específicamente las rutas de Promoción y Mantenimiento de la Salud (RPMS) y Materno-Perinatal (RIAMP). La metodología fue validada en cinco territorios priorizados: Barranquilla, Bucaramanga, Cúcuta, Riohacha y Santa Marta. Los resultados mostraron una alta aprobación de los materiales y sesiones de asistencia técnica, con un 92,9% de los participantes calificando positivamente. Se destacaron recomendaciones para mejorar el proceso, como asegurar la disponibilidad de tiempo para los participantes y garantizar el acceso a la herramienta durante las sesiones. La metodología validada será utilizada por el Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social para apoyar a los prestadores en la implementación de las RIAS

The Comprehensive Healthcare Pathways (RIAS) are policy instruments used to deliver primary health care services in Colombia, with a focus on two priority pathways - Health Promotion and Prevention (RPMS) and Maternal-Perinatal Health Care (RIAMP). To support implementation, the Local Health System Sustainability (LHSS) project developed a web tool for analyzing primary care providers' capacity to deliver these pathways. LHSS then created and validated a methodology for the Ministry of Health to provide technical assistance to providers on using this tool. The validation was conducted in three phases across five territories, involving developing materials, testing with provider teams, and incorporating feedback. Results showed high approval ratings for the technical assistance sessions, with over 90% of participants agreeing or strongly agreeing with positive statements about the methodology. Some recommendations were made to improve the process, such as ensuring participant availability and tailoring content to different provider types.
