Assessing the progression of the Covid-19 pandemic in Canada using testing data and time-dependent reproduction numbers
User fees exemptions alone are not enough to increase indigent use of healthcare services
The aim of this study was to assess whether user fees exemptions increased healthcare services use among indigents in the Ouargaye district in Burkina Faso. In this pre-post study, we surveyed 1224 indigents in 2010 about their healthcare services use over the preceding 6 months. Of these, 540 subsequently received a user fees exemption card. A follow-up survey was conducted 1 year later with a 55.3% retention rate. Analyses were performed in acc…

Combining user fees exemption with training and supervision helps to maintain the quality of drug prescriptions in Burkina Faso

Two further components, staff training and supervision, were added to support the intervention. Our aim in this study was to examine how this tripartite intervention affected the quality of drug prescriptions. Using a mixed methodology, we first conducted an interrupted time series over 24 months. Nine health centres …
