Performance-Based Contracting for Health Services in Developing Countries : A Toolkit
This toolkit provides practical advice to anyone involved in, or who is interested in becoming involved in, performance-based contracting of health services with non state providers in the context of developing countries. It addresses many of the issues that may be encountered. Input from experienced contracting professionals will give newcomers increased confidence as they go forward. Experts directly involved in contracting on a large scale have contributed to the development of this toolkit. The first section provides summary before moving on to the main part of the toolkit. The section provides background on contracting, including definitions of key terms, the types of services that can be contracted, how contracting relates to other ways of organizing health services, and which contracting approaches work in different settings. The third section provides a systematic way of thinking about contracting and how to do it in practice. It looks at seven aspects of the contracting process from initial dialogue with stakeholders through carrying out the bidding process and managing contracts. This framework will help ensure a systematic consideration of the choices and challenges. The fourth section provides checklist which contains tasks and issues to address while designing and implementing a contract. The checklist can also be used to review an existing contract to see what is missing or could be improved. The fifth and final section reviews the evidence for contracting in developing countries, explores why contracting appears to work, and addresses concerns that have been expressed about contracting.

This toolkit provides practical advice
to anyone involved in, or who is interested in becoming
involved in, performance-based contracting of health
services with non state providers in the context of
developing countries. It addresses many of the issues that
may be encountered. Input from experienced contracting
professionals will give newcomers increased confidence as
they go forward. Experts directly involved in contracting on
a large scale have contributed to the development of this
toolkit. The first section provides summary before moving on
to the main part of the toolkit. The section provides
background on contracting, including definitions of key
terms, the types of services that can be contracted, how
contracting relates to other ways of organizing health
services, and which contracting approaches work in different
settings. The third section provides a systematic way of
thinking about contracting and how to do it in practice. It
looks at seven aspects of the contracting process from
initial dialogue with stakeholders through carrying out the
bidding process and managing contracts. This framework will
help ensure a systematic consideration of the choices and
challenges. The fourth section provides checklist which
contains tasks and issues to address while designing and
implementing a contract. The checklist can also be used to
review an existing contract to see what is missing or could
be improved. The fifth and final section reviews the
evidence for contracting in developing countries, explores
why contracting appears to work, and addresses concerns that
have been expressed about contracting. |
