Health Policy and Sector Reform

USAID works in the field of health policy and sector reform to help developing countries invest scarce resources into their most serious health problems while continuing to offer their populations affordable, high quality health care. USAID helps countries achieve greater efficiency, effectiveness, and improved outcomes for their existing reproductive health care programs, improve efficiency in the allocation of resources, provide individuals with greater access to services, and achieve consumer satisfaction. This work is accomplished in several ways:
  • Reducing shortages and costs of drugs
  • Improving the quality of health care
  • Promoting greater understanding of how the private sector can achieve health objectives
  • Improving the sustainability of health care
