Many developing countries are struggling to provide basic health care services to their increasing populations. Governments are under mounting pressure to deliver improved heath care services while at the same time confronting financial constraints on their publicly funded health programs. We believe that changes are necessary in the provision of health care if governments are to realise their health care potential and tackle poverty. We assist governments to prepare and implement structural and institutional reform programs to improve health, nutrition and service delivery outcomes.
Our focus in the health care sector is on the development of financing and strategy options for health systems, including economic and institutional analysis and service delivery performance assessment. Outcomes from our health care sector projects have improved the composition and returns to spending and reduced costs, while strengthening the efficiency and effectiveness of health care services.
