Summary: The health workforce plays a key role in increasing access to health services for the poor in developing countries. Recent evidence has demonstrated an important link between staffing levels and both service delivery and health outcomes. Various global and country-level estimates have also shown that current staffing levels in developing countries, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, are often well below those required to deliver essential health services. This study focuses on two main aspects of health workforce policy. First, it examines how overall government wage bill policies affect the size of the health wage bill, the hiring of health workers in the public sector, and the related policy options. This focus is important because despite the importance of fiscal constraints on the wage bill, and the persistent debate at the global level, very little documented evidence describes how health wage bill budgets in the public sector are determined, how this action is linked to overall wage bill policies, and how it affects the ability of governments to increase staffing levels in the health sector. Second, this report looks at how well health wage bill resources are used in the public sector.PPN: PPN: 83495415XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-110-WBL | ZDB-1-WBA | ZDB-110-WBO
