Health system performance issues

Over-centralized resources leading to: Technical inefficiency—low value for

money Poor allocative efficiency—spending

money on the wrong things High costs to patients (who spend a lot

for drugs) Poor quality of care—poor performance

by health workers at poor facilities

Page 6: Burkina Faso Case

Reform initiatives

New role for ministry of health in setting norms, planning, special programs

District health team approach, with community management committee implication

New approaches to resource management, including block grants to districts

General contracting of civil servants with performance evaluation

Discussion questions

Based on your reading of the case (or knowledge of BF), comment the criteria of readiness in the previous slide? How to do you assess these criteria?

Would a SWAp enable BF to improve the management capacity of its MOH, or would weak existing capacity defeat a SWAp?

Would a SWAp contribute to efforts to improve the performance of BF’s health system?

Are donors ready for a SWAp? Would you recommend that BF move to a

sector-wide program?

Central ideas

Government, Donors and other groups of civil society are involved in a new type of partnership

Management and coordination of aid is shared equally by stakeholders on both sides

Government in the Driver-seat

Page 13: Burkina Faso Case

More control by the Government over the development agenda

Better donor coordination & reduce administrative burden for the Govnt

Flexibility to design strategies corresponding to local conditions

Consistency between policy and dvpt goals by all stakeholders

Long term approach to development

Page 14: Burkina Faso Case

Disadvantages Greater influence of the donors

in deciding Government policy & high level decision

Difficult in attributing results to particular donor

Less opportunity for innovative approaches from multiplicity of development agencies

Less control of how funds are used

Policies and strategies remain consistent

Here is what Burkina needs to do

Preconditions

Page 18: Burkina Faso Case

How strong is the commitment ?

An agency must be designated or created to guide SWAp process in the country

The agency is endowed with authority to implement the course of action for the SWAp,

An adequate budget must be appropriated to enable the agency to carry out its mandate.

Page 19: Burkina Faso Case

How to strengthen Ownership?

National consultations Clear overall vision: role of the

state in the sector endorsed by the Head of State

Sector strategy endorsed by MoH and Legislature

Core of influential officials sharing relevant donor perspectives

Ministry of Finance support: spending programmes realistically matched to the Budget available

Page 20: Burkina Faso Case

How strong is ownership ?

Strong Government Leadership

Government change Agents

seeking Alliance

Donor Leadership

Page 21: Burkina Faso Case

Finally……

Mechanism that gives back control

of health development programs to

Burkina government

Focusing on the long-term policy &

strategy decisions in the Health

Sector

An approach rather than a blueprint

Ownership and Timing apropriate

Building discipline and trust from

both sides: Government and donors
