Brazil-Africa technical cooperation in health: What’s its relevance to the post-Busan debate on ‘aid effectiveness’?

  • Autores: Cabral L, Ferrinho P, Russo G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Globalization and Health
  • Link: http://www.globalizationandhealth.com/content/9/1/2

Brazil is rapidly becoming an influential player in development cooperation, also thanks to its high-visibility health projects in Africa and Latin America. The 4th High-level Forum on Aid Effectiveness held in Busan in late 2011 marked a change in the way development cooperation is conceptualised. The present paper explores the issue of emerging donors’ contribution to the post-Busan debate on aid effectiveness by looking at Brazil’s health cooperation projects in Portuguese-speaking Africa.

Pharmaceutical services cost analysis using time-driven activity based costing in a sample of Portuguese community pharmacies

  • Autores: Gregório J, Lapão L, Russo G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2015
  • Journal: International Journal of Clinical Pharmacy

Pharmacists have experienced an expansion of their role in the last decades, developing the scope of
services offered. One challenge that pharmacists face when obtaining payment from patients is establishing a price for the service that is sufficient to support it, and is perceived as a good value by the patient. However, little research has been conducted on the costs of pharmaceutical services (PS) in Portugal. To accurately calculate costs it is important to use a costing methodology that supports itself on real-world data. This study describes the development and application of a Time-driven Activity Based Costing (TDABC) model in a sample of pharmacies in Portugal, with the objective of calculating the cost of the PS provided.

Purchasing power of civil servant health workers in Mozambique.

  • Autores: Amaral M, Ferrinho F, Ferrinho P, Russo G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2012
  • Journal: The Pan African medical journal
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Purchasing+power+of+civil+servant+health+workers+in+Mozambique

BACKGROUND:
Health workers’ purchasing power is an important consideration in the development of strategies for health workforce development. This work explores the purchasing power variation of Mozambican public sector health workers, between 1999 and 2007. In general, the calculated purchasing power increased for most careers under study, and the highest percentage increase was observed for the lowest remuneration careers, contributing in this way for a relative reduction in the difference between the higher and the lower salaries.

  • Link: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs12116-015-9186-2

Yet, public and private pharmaceutical enterprises have cropped up on the continent, with some venturing into production of sophisticated and complex drugs, such as antiretrovirals (ARVs).

  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Human Resources for Health
  • Link: http://www.human-resources-health.com/content/12/1/51

Despite the growing interest in the private health sector in low- and middle-income countries, little is known about physicians working outside the public sector. The present work adopts a mixed-methods approach to explore characteristics, working patterns, choices, and motivations of the physicians working exclusively for the private sector in the capital cities of Cape Verde, Guinea Bissau, and Mozambique.
