Health worker crisis in Africa - a case for exceptionality?
Poor service quality and insufficient coverage prevail in many low-income countries’ health sector. Extensive absenteeism and a substantial gap between the clinical procedures health workers know they should follow, and what they actually do with patients (a “know-do gap”), indicate that lack of motivation among health care providers is a critical factor. Against this background, performance based financing is gaining momentum as an approach to boost motivation, strengthen health systems and improve health outcomes in low-income countries. CMI researchers are involved in several projects to understand the implementation process, the cost and the impacts of performance based financing in the health sector.
