dc.descriptionWith these Cameroon economic updates, the World Bank is pursuing a program of short and frequent reports analyzing the trends and constraints in Cameroon's economic development. Each issue, produced bi-annually, provides an update of recent economic developments, as well as a special focus on a topical issue. The Cameroon economic updates aim to share knowledge and stimulate debate among those interested in improving the economic management of Cameroon and unleashing its enormous potential. The notes thereby offer another voice on economic issues in Cameroon, and an additional platform for engagement, learning and exchange. This sixth issue of the Cameroon Economic Updates is entitled 'towards greater equity, a special focus on health'. A results-based approach in health, which provides funding based on results and rewards performance through additional budgetary allocations and bonuses, is currently being piloted in Cameroon. The preliminary results of this approach are encouraging. An extension of this initiative may be an option to improve health services and outcomes, and ensure greater coverage of health services.
dc.descriptionLes Cahiers économiques du Cameroun visent à partager les connaissances et susciter un dialogue entre ceux qui cherchent à améliorer la gestion économique du Cameroun et à libérer l’énorme potentiel économique du pays. Ce sixième numéro des Cahiers se penche sur les questions de santé et décrit les efforts déployés pour parvenir à une plus grande équité. Les indicateurs de santé du Cameroun ne se sont guère améliorés au cours des deux dernières décennies. Le taux de mortalité des enfants de moins de cinq ans est en légère baisse, mais l’espérance de vie, quant à elle, a diminué. Le poids des dépenses en matière de santé incombe en grande partie aux ménages, et il n’existe pratiquement pas de mécanismes de partage des risques. De plus, les maigres ressources publiques affectées à la santé ne semblent pas être déployées là où les besoins sont les plus grands. On constate donc des disparités marquées en matière de santé entre zones rurales et urbaines, ainsi qu’entre les différents groupes socioéconomiques. L’adoption du budget programme en 2013 devrait améliorer l’efficacité des dépenses publiques. Un système efficace de collecte et de gestion des données aiderait les décideurs à faire en sorte que les dotations budgétaires soient en accord avec les besoins. Le Cameroun pourrait également envisager d’étendre les mécanismes de paiement anticipé et de partage des risques, comme les mutuelles de santé et l’assurance-santé obligatoire dans le secteur formel. Une approche du secteur de la santé basée sur les résultats, octroyant des financements en fonction des résultats et récompensant la performance par des crédits budgétaires supplémentaires et des primes, est actuellement expérimentée au Cameroun. Les premiers résultats sont encourageants. Une extension de cette initiative pourrait être envisagée afin d’améliorer les services de santé, leur couverture et leurs résultats.
