Regulatory dimension
What is regulation? Why is the regulatory dimension important? What are the determinants of regulation?What makes the regulatory dimension effective?
Regulation
In terms of the `steering role`:
Manifestation of the States responsibility to order and systematize a reality according to a series of trends prevailing at a given time. Requires building consensus between different State levels, among them and all sectors of society.
Creates the legal framework needed to protect and promote the health of the population as well as to guarantee its enforcement
Why the regulatory dimension is important
Is necessary to guarantee the states role as organizer of the relations between production and distribution of health resources, goods, services, and opportunities according to principles of solidarity and equity
Why the regulatory dimension is important (2)
Fulfills the states principal mechanism to mediate relationships between actors with power asymmetries (public/private)
It establishes the foundation for the articulation of the other dimensions of the steering role
Why the regulatory dimension is important (3)
State
the regulatory mandates primarily emerge from the constitutional norms that create rights and duties for individuals and institutionsInternational context
States commitments and ratification of international agreements (common markets, integration blocs)
Determinants of the regulatory function
The existence of a solid regulatory framework establishing the functions and competences of the NHAEnsure the regulatory leadership of the NHAStrong political will to perform the regulatory function with an adequate infrastructure Clear policies and shared principles (equity, quality, universality).Institutional capacity in terms of the conduction and articulation of actors and sectors
Effectiveness of the regulatory function
Strategic intelligence to foresee current and future trends and orientations that will require new regulationsPeriodic monitoring, evaluation and upgrading the regulatory framework Good capacity to coordinate and articulate with decentralized entities/agencies to which the regulatory functions are being transferred Strong capacity to enforce the regulation
Effectiveness of the regulatory function (2)
Regulation of the health services and the private participation
Unique characteristic of the provision of health care as a public and private good, reinforces de need and importance of strong regulation
Essential element to guide the private practice
Public protection: market failures, inefficency of sevices, diminish high health care costs
Economic focus: monopoly control, vertical integrations of insurers and health providers, reduce transactional costs of insurance companies
Essential public health functionsIndispensable set of actions, under the primary responsibility of the state, that are fundamental for achieving the goal of public health which is to improve, promote, protect, and restore the health of the population through collective action
Essential public health functions (1)Monitoring, evaluation and analysis of health status
2. Public health surveillance, research, and control of risks and threats to PH
3. Health promotion
4. Social participation in health
5. Development of policies and institutional capacity for PH planning and management
6. Strengthening of institutional capability for regulation and enforcement in PH
Essential public health functions (2)Evaluation and promotion of equitable access to necessary health services
Human resources development and training in PH
Quality assurance in personal and population-based health services
Research in Public Health
