ten Policy analysis in the health sector in Colombia
-
Andres I. Vecino-Ortiz
Abstract
This chapter talks about health care as a universal concern and health policy. It provides an overview of policy analysis within the health care sector across problem definition, policy development and implementation stages at the national, departmental, and local levels of government. It also identifies four concrete examples of opportunities for policy analysis in the health sector, as well as two substantial obstacles or “bottlenecks.” The chapter discusses the development of policy analysis studies in the Colombian health sector since the health reform in 1993, and the heterogeneity of such development across different health sector institutions in Colombia. It assesses how policy analysis in the health sector evolved over time, highlighting the divergent development in national-level and local-level institutions.
