| description |
Brazil has one of the greatest income
concentrations in the planet. Most adverse health outcomes
are more common among the poor. The Family Health Program
(PSF) was introduced in the 1990s to provide high quality
primary health care especially to the poorest. The program
(PSF) seems to have an important role guaranteeing access to
the poor. However, the PSF is not well focused, and coverage
among the poor is still inadequate. Findings from this study
will be fed back to policy makers to help improve the
program. This discussion paper was prepared for the Program
on Reaching the Poor with Effective Health, Nutrition, and
Population Services, organized by the World Bank in
cooperation with the William and Melinda Gates Foundation
and the Governments of the Netherlands and Sweden. |
