| Summary: | Introduction The World Organization recommends to implement National Quality Policies and Strategies in health systems, but few instruments have been proposed to assess and monitor these quality interventions at the system level. This study will map and compare instruments for the assessment of quality policies and strategies in health systems around the world.Methods and analysis This is a scoping review protocol developed according to the Joanna Briggs Institute’s manual and guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews. The search for articles will be performed in the following Embase, Medline/Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature. Searches will also be conducted on Google Scholar and grey literature (www.opengrey.eu). A descriptive analysis of studies mapped by analysis categories will be performed. The results will be presented through a narrative summary of the mapped findings to verify how the results correlate with the objective and research question of the review.Ethics and dissemination The study does not require an ethical review due to its nature. The submission of results for publication in a peer-reviewed journal and presentation at a scientific conference is expected.Link to the protocol record in the Open Science Framework (OSF) https://DOI.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/2KMTS
