In 2009, the Paraguayan
Government's Ministry of Health and the World Bank
agreed to conduct technical cooperation work, which included
two specific studies and an analysis of the public health
sector, with a view to identifying medium- and long-term
health sector policy formulation options. The specific
studies were on: (i) the national pharmaceutical sector, and
(ii) the social determinants of health. This study,
facilitated technical exchanges and policy dialogue with the
authorities throughout the process, which included the
organization of workshops and the submission to the Ministry
of Public Health and Social Welfare in December 2010 of two
technical documents, one of which focused on the social
determinants of health and the other, on drug policy, which
are included in the annexes to this report; as well as to
bring technical assessment to the Ministry of Public Health
and Social Welfare about health services integrated
networks. This report analyzes the available evidence on
changes and trends in the state of health of the Paraguayan
population through 2010 to 2011, taking into account the
policy guidelines and institutional changes introduced
during the final period of the government's term and
the trends in a number of social determinants of health.
This report will contribute to the development of a medium-
and long-term strategy, with the ultimate aim of improving
health outcomes, and will serve as a tool that provides
information and recommendations that can also create new
opportunities for collaboration in the area of sectoral
dialogue in the country. This report discusses the following
points: recent trends in the population health situation;
policy guidelines since 2008; proposals: medium and
long-term policy focal areas; health care system; and public
health policies. |
