| Summary: | The World Bank commissioned a capacity
assessment study of the Ministry of Health (MOH) that was
undertaken in March 2006. The terms of reference covered the
following areas: Identify the existing analytical work being
done by other donors in the health field and summarize their
terms of reference and main conclusions; assess the MOH
capacity to implement health policies and strategies adopted
by the government; assess the MOH capacity to implement
projects financed by the Bank, the Global fund, EU and
others focusing the analysis on the MOH capacity for policy
formulation, mobilization of funds, and program
implementation; assess the capacity at central, provincial
and municipal level in (i) program management, (ii) service
delivery, including the number and distribution of staff;
analyze the decision making process and the incentives for
decision making including how much the system is centralized
or decentralized; analyze the existing stock of health
professionals including the MOH and military, identifying
key constraints and gaps in capacity, government plans to
increase capacity; existing training institutions and their
capacity to produce new professionals and follow-up
training; propose options for short term and long-term
interventions including training managers, training of
doctors and nurses, recruitment, on-job-training, review of
curricula and other; make cost estimates of short term
capacity building interventions that could be financed by
the Bank and other donors; and identify future work that may
be needed to undertake deeper or follow-up analysis. |
