JSF recommends restructuring health sector to offer better services
The Jordan Strategy Forum (JSF) recommended restructuring the health sector financially and administratively to ensure better medical services, and attract specialized medical and administrative workforce by developing a national capacity-building program.
In a press statement issued Sunday, the JSF stressed the need to raise the level of administrative competence for Jordan's hospital managers, address challenges related to primary health care, comprehensive health infrastructure, develop follow-up and evaluation regimes, as well as enhancing transparency and accountability, and implementing a more effective and transparent hospital-based referral system.
The JSF pointed to the importance of providing an 'adequate' number of medical workers by outsourcing specialized services from the private sector, and launching a 'comprehensive' incentive increase to medical workers.
To ensure smooth delivery of services, the forum highlighted the need to strengthen a 'decentralized approach' to provide financial and administrative independence for hospitals to provide better services, and strengthen the foundations of public- private sector partnership to meet the 'growing' demand on the health sector and the 'huge' spending needed to sustain health care services for citizens.
The JSF had previously issued a policy paper offering a comprehensive review of the health sector's performance over the past years, and the most prominent challenges and the mechanism to enhance its competitiveness to improve the services quality and raise efficiency, said the statement.
Founded on 2012, JSF, viewed a leading think tank on economic development, seeks to enable the private sector to engage in constructive dialogue on local economic issues and achieve comprehensive economic growth.
