Minimum services BUT Maximum gain
Synergistic nature of package interventions: • Individual inputs can complement each other • The whole will be greater than the sum of its parts. In practical terms
A package is a universal or comparable productwhich helps; • Increases Consumers Choices (health plans, insurers, or different providers) • Simplifies the choices • Promote equity
Limited scope of the basic package: • It cannot include everything • Many services will be omitted • those in the package are the ones value the most.

Types of Services arein the Package? • Public health interventions For instance: maternity care • Clinical health interventions For instance: global surgery or nursing Package
Public health interventions • Services that foster changes in personal behavior • Services that control environmental hazards • Services give specific health care to the population
Clinical health interventions • Different levels of facilities may provide different responses to similar health problems • The clinical intervention itself may not be significantly different from one facility to another; However, the resources that may be required may be very different
Preventive vs. Curativeinterventions: • It is important to reach an appropriate balance between the two.

Is Prioritizing Useful ?
Prioritization to determine package contents: • Need to criteria that are agreed upon • The agreement can be among policy-makers, the medical profession, or society as a whole • criteria can include, among others, cost- effectiveness of treatments, burden of disease, and/or some combination
Why Prioritizing Could Be Useful? • Scarcity makes us not be able to provide all of the health services we would like to • We have to make hard choices Selection of a Choice means deleting many choices
International Issues: Demographic & epidemiological phenomena: • 1) aging population; • 2) more education and awareness on health issues increase demand; • 3) changing life styles toward risky behavior; • 4) cost of diagnostic and curative technology has increased rapidly during past 20 years (Mosley et al, 1993, Berman and Ormond, 1988, Bobadilla and Costello, 1961, Bronzino et al, 1990).
Prioritization task? Difficulty of task: • Rationing of care; so, some services not provided or some people may not receive care • People react very negatively
Why Prioritize? • Forcing decision-makers to discussions about what is good or not in terms of being an effective response to health problems Netherlands; physicians view of really effective services (covered by social Ins) ranged between 20 and 40%.
Why Prioritize? • less critical services , can still be offered through: • out of pocket expenditures or • private health insurance • Gov don’t omit less important services, don’t finance them
How to Prioritize Different Approaches • Categories of care • Specific criteria • Severity • Community needs • Effectiveness • Efficiency • Necessity of services
How to Prioritize Different ApproachesCont, 3. guidelines or technology assessment methods 4. Adopt models or formulas that incorporate economic principles 5. Program budgeting and marginal analysis approach
Why Design a PackageBenefits • The link between treatment and prevention • Multiple outputs from inputs • Identification of all required inputs • Coordination of resources • Directing demand for services
Why Design a PackagePolitical Benefits • Defining a package of high priority helps Gov. to overcome its inabilities
Design a PackageProblems • Consumers may still demand other services and bypass those in the package • Unpopular package • Lack credibility among People& Doctors • Unavailable information
Health sector allocation of resources is not fair • There are serious mismatches between the disease profile of population and the distribution of resources. This is attributed to: • the use of oversimplified models for setting health care priorities; • lack of appropriate quantitative information (Bobadilla, 1998). • Resources for health are either shrinking or are not growing fast enough. Many low and middle-income countries have reduced per capita public spending on health (Lafond, 1995).

Approaches to direct package to whom? • Single, Universal Package (Iran) • Targeted Package for Population Subgroups • Multiple Packages
Single, Universal Package • The package serves as a minimum • The wealthier, will receive at least the same package as the poor, from public resources • Such expenditures could be directed to the neediest and assist in poverty alleviation • Wealthier will be able to get additional services beyond what is offered in the package. • Such an approach creates a two-tier system.
Targeted Package for Population Subgroups • Target the package to specific groups such as poor, pregnant women and children, or those living in particular geographic areas • Equity, Efficiency, Health gains that and access • An example of such an approach is the basic package developed for Bolivia’s Maternal and Child National Insurance Program
