Description


This project aims to contribute to the strategic thinking on the fate of hospitals in Haiti, through targeted support to the Direction de l’Organisation des Services de Santé (DOSS) of Haiti’s Ministry of Public Health and Population (MSPP). Special attention was given to hospital services. The Project has a dual purpose. On one hand, it documents the situation of Haitian hospitals and, in light of international experiences, sheds light on the dialogue between technical and financial partners and the Haitian government on hospital issues. On the other hand, the project strengthens the DOSS’ capacities to help it carry out some of its planning, regulatory, and control functions better (in response to its needs and priorities) to initiate hospital reform. In short, the project is helping to lay the foundations needed to begin the planning for hospital reform in Haiti.
