The Borrower would bear the foreign exchange and interest rate risks. The loan would include the refinancing of the PPF of about US$.08 million equivalent. Project Description The project would assist the Ministry of Public Health in strengthening and accelerating the ongoing shift from an urban-based hospital-oriented health system to a more cost-effective system of lrimary care including family planning. The project would include: (a) the strengtheningof primary care in three provinces by upgrading and expanding the physical infrastructure,provision of equipment, training of health staff and improving logistics; (b) the improvementof MOPE management; (c) the strengthening of training and IEC programs, and (d) the improvementof the supply of basic drugs. The main benefits of this first project in the health sector are to provide the Government with a cost-effectivemodel for primary care including family planning, while raising the capacity of the central MOPE to improve the logistics and yet control the costs of the health care delivery system. The main risk of the project relates to the stringency of MOPH recurrent budget. This risk is being addressed by minimizing incrementaloperating costs while reducing unit costs of the services.
