  1. HISTORY IS ALWAYS A WISE COUNSELLOR • HR never appears in a vacuum • There is always something before • We construct over the remainings of previous era • Others will build upon ours • many times we recycle knowledge and even architecture, like in Foro di Augusto

  2. FORO DI AGUSTO, ROMA, 35 AC

  3. SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT • History overlaps succesive cycles:Power, culture, Values, Beleifs, Politics, etc. • Revolutions dont exist, changes are incremental and take long periods of time • Health Reform is a stage in which policy concentrates in certain aspects: health problems, systems organization. It varies • We never reinvent the wheel or gun powder

  4. HEALTH SYSTEMS COMPONENTS • Structured Pluralism (Londoño & Frenk):prevaling situation • Public services and Medical Care • Financing and Provision • Integrated or Split functions

  5. HR: central hypothesis • HEALTH REFORMS ARE THE CULMINATION OF AN INCREMENTAL PROCESS, RATHER THAN A RUPTURE WITH THE PAST • Jiménez and Bossert

  6. THE LATINAMERICAN HEALTH SYSTEMS MIX

  7. CHILE: Four reform periods • State responsibility: 1920-1930 • National Health Service: 1940-1960 • Decentralization and Privatiztion: 1980 • Strengthening of mixed system and Recovery of Public sector 1990 • Jimenez and Bossert, 1995

  8. CHILE: After Charity, the State takes responsibility(1918-1938) • Basic institutions established by law:Sanitary Code (1918), Social Security (1924), Preventive Medicine Law (1936), Mother and Child Law(1937). • Period of Reformist Goverment (1920-1930), but also.. • Right wing Socially Sensible Liberal Right wing Government (1932-1938)

  9. CHILE: After Charity, the State takes responsibility(1918-1938)2 • Period has two economic stages,initially growth (1915-1929), then crisis and recession(1930-1938) • Epidemioloy plays an important role via outbreaks of Murine Thyphus and Small pox.The rich under threat, react. • Debates in Parliament question: who pays??, who will execute the policy

  10. Cruz Coke, a catholic conservative physician,also biochemist and entrepreneur • He proposes a special “Preventive MedicineLaw” (1937) • Project, approved due to his brilliant mathematical calculations on cost-benefit of sick leave versus absenteeism • SCIENCE:another critical actor • He says: “Medicina Preventiva y Dirigida”

  11. SCIENCE: another critical actor • Scientifical method via epidemiological concerns and concepts, aided with primitive cost benfit approaches helped clever politicians to push their ideas to success • Concept of “Directed or Managed medicine”, appears for the first time in debate about health structure and administration

  12. ALLENDE: free mason, socialist, intuitive politician • Earthquake in south of Chile, 1939 • Sanitary services are all put together under single united rule • Observations after a year prove increases in production of services: medical visits, preventive interventions and others • Conclusion: Unification is Good, Reform the social security, create a single structure(1941)

  13. CHILE:APOTHEOSIS of Wellfare, NHS,1952 • 10 years of parliamentary debates to approve the reform. Several changes to arrive to the prevalent idea: Unify services • Model was the British NHS, but had many original ideas and strategies.Included only the poor,no employees • Unification of 20 separate services in only one structure. Dificult and complex operation that took four years to implement

  14. CHILE,NHS,1952 • Finance and Provision together: total vertical integration. Left out pensions • Money from taxes and social security premiums • Salaried doctors, complex negotiation, they were afraid of loosing liberal practice. • Initial opponents, after strong supporters (Medical paradox)

  15. CHILE, NHS 1952-1980 • After structure was established, important sanitary programs were put in place • Maternal: hospital and professionaly attended deliveries, family planning, pregnancy controls • Children: neonatal care, routine checkups, immunizations, diarrhea and infectious disease care

  16. CHILE: NHS impact after 50 years 1960 1990 2000 • Population (millions) 7,3 13,2 15,2 • Fertility (%) 3,5 2,3 1,7 • Life expectancy (ys) 58 72 74 • General mortality (p 1000)15,5 6,0 6,0 • Infant mortality (p 1000 LB)136 14,4 8,9 • Professional deliveries 62% 97% 99% • Children immunized 89% 97% 100%

  17. CHILE: health and dictatorship • Military coup overthrows socialist regime in1973. • NHS was under severe criticism from right wing and users due to bureaucratic excess • Junta adopts neoliberal market model ,1975 • Paralell reforms in health only in 1980, dificult consensus inside government

  18. A public service giant in adaptation to modern times: decentralization & market,1981 • Initial separation of financial and provision with creation of Health Fund (FONASA) and National Health Services System • Regionalization and Autonomy for 26 provincial health services • Primary Health Care to local governments • Privatization: optout to health insurance plans: ISAPRES.

  19. 1980-1990 an imperfect reform • Reform was initiated with mind in cost reduction more then actual perfectioning • Public system left with low salaries and no capital investement, time bombs. • Private insurance plans done in competition with all the defects of similars in US: cream skimming, moral hazard, no cost control (third party payments), etc • Decentralization mostly in paper, few training, few powers, reconcentration in Subsecretaria de salud

  20. CHILE:DEMOCRACY RESTORED 1990, what about health?? • Dichotomy again: neoliberals and statalists clash again inside the Basic Policy of new government: a mixed system, public and private sectors must live together and exchange services. • government, making the reformers/pragmatists life more difficult • Strong debates, fluxes and refluxes in 12 years of democratic life

  21. 1990-2005, some achievements • Public Health budget doubled • Productivity remains constant: criticism • Renovation of technology and infrastructure • Improved salaries for manpower • Purchaser Provider split, up-downs • New payment mechanisms: on the move • Public services autonmy: still on paper

  22. CHILE, some conclusions • In the Chilean case it’s clear that reforms are progresive, incremental and they go in hand with • Epidemiology, prevaliling diseases, infections, mother and child, transitional, order the policies • Economy, progress easy when growth, dificult when in recession • Political context ideologies and pragmatism overcross, some actors are active in defending interests

  23. Chile: the 2002 Reform • In Parliament from May 2002 to December 2004, 5 projects, 3 years: • 1.- Rights of Patients Charter • 2.- AUGE: Universal Access with Explicit Guarantees • 3.- Sanitary Authority and Health Management: Function split • 4.- Private Insurance of Health (ISAPRES) • 5.- Financement of the Reform • www.minsal.cl

  24. AUGE: the big thing • Priority setting according to burden of disease • Guarantees established by law in • Opportunity-Time for Access • Financial Protection • Effectiveness in technical solutions • Quality of care

  25. LIST OF DISEASES • 56 conditions in the Plan • Represent 75% of burden and 50% of discharges from hospitals • Evidence Based research of cost effectiveneess of each condition • Protocol promotes “Disease Management” • Evaluation is critical, but not in place.

  26. The Algorythm

  27. MEDICAL ASSOCIATION: NEGATIVE APPROACH

  28. Question for this Reform • Socialist Delirium ? Central planning of every detail • Neoliberal Abuse? More money for the rich and less for the poor • “The answer my friend is blowing in the wind”

  29. CONCLUSIONS • Final indicators for success in HR: Health outcomes and /or WHO 2000? • So far it’s clear that HR takes many years to be implemented, be it a up-dowm or a bottom up process. • Not all the variables go in the same direction, at the same speed, at the same time
