Investing in the Best Buys : A Review of the Health, Nutrition, and Population Portfolio, FY1993-99
This review of the "best buys"
in the health, nutrition, and population portfolio, FY93-99,
shows that content, as well as process must receive
attention in health systems development, in order to achieve
increased access to quality health services. The report
suggest that significant gains can be made, and measured
within lending, by increasing efforts to identify, and
invest in the best buys. It describes the Bank's mixed
lending for the best buys, ranging from direct support to
public health, and clinical services (i.e., investment in
disease control programs), to health systems strengthening
(i.e., investment in surveillance, and pharmaceutical
systems, managerial and technical capacity building) that
indirectly support delivery of basic services.
Recommendations suggest linking the guidelines of this
review to the knowledge management system, and training in
basic public health, and Poverty Reduction Strategy work.
Moreover, an in-depth review of data at the regional level,
could explicitly define options for inclusion of best buys
in project implementation, based on case studies that show
the role of process, and content in selecting, and setting
priorities for best buys.
