Assessment of the Quality of post-abortion care records in 20 Public Health Facilities in Uganda: What are the gaps and how can we improve quality?

Addressing these disparities is crucial for improving maternal health outcomes, emphasizing the necessity for targeted interventions to enhance data accuracy and reliability within Uganda's health system.
