This report responds to a Ministry of
Public Health (MOPH) request to the World Bank to conduct
exploratory work to examine the impacts of public sector
reforms on human resources for health (HRH), with the aim of
identifying areas where further analytical work may be
useful. A World Bank team interviewed a range of
stakeholders: senior officials of MOPH, the Office of the
Civil Service Commission (OCSC), the Office of the Public
Sector Development Commission (OPDC), and the Nursing
Council; directors and managers of district, provincial, and
regional hospitals and one health center; health care
workers; nursing instructors and students; as well as expert
observers and academicians. Interviews were conducted in
Bangkok and three provinces (Mae Hong Son, Khon Kaen, and
Songkhla) in February-March 2010, with participation of
researchers from MOPH's Health Intervention and
Technology Assessment Program (HITAP). The information in
this report is based on interviews, and a review of key
pieces of legislation and available English-language
literature and some Thai-language literature. We were not
able in this brief initial foray to conduct a comprehensive
in-depth review of regulations nor of all related
Thai-language research that has been conducted by a variety
of entities. With this in mind, we ask for readers?
forbearance and welcome comments. This report consists of a
concise main text that presents key issues and stakeholder
perspectives, and suggests further analytical work for
consideration. A series of annexes provide background about
the fundamental structure and features of health sector
employment, sample earnings data, and short profiles of
individual health workers interviewed by the team. Readers
who are not familiar with the main features of
Thailand's HRH may wish to review the annexes prior to
reading the main text. |
