The Mexican Health Department (Secretaría de Salud / SSA) through the Health Prevention and Promotion SubDepartment (Subsecretaría de Prevención y Promoción de la Salud / SPPS) conducts monetary and input transfers to the states through the Agreement for the Strengthening of Public Health Actions in the States (Acuerdo para el Fortalecimiento de las Acciones de Salud Pública en los Estados / AFASPE). This article describes and analyzes AFASPE’s performance in 2012 in the Equal Start in Life Specific Action Program (Programa de Acción Específico Arranque Parejo en la Vida) in Chiapas in the light of the decentralization process. The discussion is focused on the planning analysis, resource delivery and execution, budget modifications, transparency and accountability involving both the SSA and the State Heath Services (Servicios Estatales de Salud / SESA), as well as the Department of Finances of Chiapas State.

Palabras llave : public policy monitoring; transparency and accountability; AFASPE; maternal health.
