| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par IRDES q9JR0xCj. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The Health system profiles (HiTs) are country-based reports that provide a detailed description of health systems and of policy initiatives in progress or under development. HiTs examine different approaches to the organization, financing and delivery of health services and the role of the main actors in health systems. They also describe the institutional framework, process, content, and implementation of health and health care policies, highlighting challenges and areas that require more in-depth analysis. Sections include : Geography and sociodemography ; Political and economic context ; Health status ; Organizational structure ; Decentralization and centralization ; Patient empowerment ; Health care financing ; Health expenditure ; Population coverage ; Pooling ; Purchasing ; Payment mechanisms ; Regulation and planning ; Physical and humanresources ; Provision of services ; Public health ; Primary care ; Hospital care ; Emergency care ; Social care ; Palliative care ; Mental health care ; Dental care ; Pharmaceuticals ; Health care reforms ; Assessment of the health system.T. The Latvian health system, based on general tax-financed statutory health care provision, provides coverage to the entire population and access to a basic service package, but still leaves patients exposed to substantial user charges and direct payments. The financial crisis means the government faces a huge struggle to prevent deterioration of the health status. Important reforms such as moving service provision away from hospital care, and increasing provision of ambulatory care have been implemented successfully, along with a social safety net to protect the poor from the negative consequences of user charges. But the lack of financial resources poses the main challenge, and an increase in public expenditure is needed to ensure adequate funding of the health service. |
