This report aims to provide an updated
analysis of labor market trends for the health workforce in
Peru, focusing on the basic health team, physician, nurse,
and midwife, and other health professionals related to
current priorities. Peru has been labeled as a country with
a shortage of health professionals (that is, with less than
25 professionals per 10,000 inhabitants), and although the
most recent numbers indicate that the situation has
improved, the shortages are bound to become more acute as
the country aims to achieve Universal Health Coverage. The
authors found that the country trains both in public and
private universities a large number of professionals, but
that the majority of trained professionals do not then go on
to work for the public sector. This dynamic had not been
described before and challenges current assumptions of human
resources needs and availability. There is very little
reliable data on numbers, type and work conditions for human
resources working outside the public sector, including the
social security insurance health system (EsSalud), other
health insurance providers, and the private sector, and as a
result no detailed information can be obtained about the
distribution of health professionals outside the public
sector. For policy purposes, it is necessary to improve the
quality and integration of HRH information across the sector. |
