Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, the Government of Belize outlined its Health Sector Reform Program under which it signaled health financing as one of three priority areas. As part of the reform implementation, the National Health Insurance (NHI) was established in 2001 which had as its goal to improve access to quality of health services through both public and private sector providers as well as provide an appropriate pooling mechanism that would decrease the amount that individuals were paying out of pocket for health care services. Fifteen years later, the Government of Belize is interested in assessing to what extent NHI has had an effect on health outcomes, outputs, and access; quality in outputs and processes; and efficiency. This assessment lays out the results from the assessment. On health outcomes, outputs, and access, the study found no difference in health outcomes, mixed results on health services outputs in NHI-contracted compared to non NHI-contracted Primary Care Providers (PCPs), initial improvements in access to care, but little difference in addressing financial barriers to access. On the quality of outputs and processes, the quality of NHI-contracted PCP services has improved over the years of NHI contracting. On efficiency, a simple efficiency analysis based on quality scores indicates that there is little difference between Belize City South Side and Southern Region PCPs. However, while NHI chose to provide services in the lower income South Side of Belize City and the rural Southern Region as a way to target the poor, membership registration has been on a first-come first-served basis rather than favoring the poorer within these geographical locations. These assessments provide the Government with the evidence to guide their decision-making on whether NHI is a sustainable model and whether it should be scaled up on a national level. The report includes a set of policy considerations and recommendations for the Government to review in light of the national discussions on NHI sustainability and scalability.

This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This IMF staff report on Belize’s 2013 Article IV Consultation highlights economic developments and macroeconomic outlook. Macroeconomic developments in 2012 were underpinned by robust output growth but clouded by uncertainties surrounding the debt restructuring and growth prospects of major trading partners. New provisioning, and loan classification standards implemented by the central bank at end-2011 have resulted in declining nonperforming loans (NPLs) in the banking system and improving provisioning. NPLs remain high at 20 percent of total loans at end-2012, with heavy concentration in one domestic and some international banks. In compliance with the new prudential measures, banks have been required to write off bad loans within 3–5 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authorities' economic policy seeks to sustain strong economic growth mainly through low taxes, large public investment, and the provision of credit to the private sector through the state-owned Development Finance Corporation (DFC). The authorities expect the resulting high rate of economic growth to generate sufficient fiscal resources to reduce the public sector deficit and service the rapidly accumulating external public debt. Executive Directors welcomed the authorities' intention to reduce excess liquidity to help secure the sustainability of the exchange rate.
