  • Health Care Systems in Bih Financing Challenges and Reform Options?

    Health Care Systems in Bih Financing Challenges and Reform Options?

    ANALYSIS Sarajevo Health Care Systems in BiH Financing challenges and reform options? Marko Martić and ognjen Đukić, SarajeVo October 2017 High expectations and increasing needs of citizens have influenced a relatively high share of private expenditure in total health expenditure (28% in 2014) which is double the EU average (14%). In 2014, the private household health care spending of a family with three members averaged 50 KM monthly, which may pose a serious burden for the families living below or near poverty line. It indicates a certain degree of inequality in access to health care services among the citizens of BiH. There is a high level of inequality of public expenditure in health sector among the cantons by insured person in FBiH (from 453 KM to 875 KM), given that revenues from the employees’ contributions “return” to the canton they were collected in It can be said that the principle of solidarity does not extend beyond the cantonal level in this way. In order to achieve a higher level of equality in the public resources for health sector among the cantons, it is necessary for the cantons or the Government of FBiH to find other resources to make it possible. High dependence of this system on the contributions from the employed is not an optimal solution for BiH taking into account a low employment rate and population aging process. Among the EU countries applying mainly the Bismarck’s model, a trend of movement towards the so-called “mixed model” can be noticed – model involving greater participation of other sources of financing, in addition to the wage-based con- tributions.

    Industriall Global Union's Letter to Tuzla Prime Minister Regarding

    Geneva, 6 July 2017 Mr. Bego Gutić Tuzla Canton Prime Minister Bosnia and Herzegovina Sent by email: [email protected] IndustriALL Global Union calls on Tuzla Canton Government to intervene at GIKIL Lukavac and ensure national and international labour standards are upheld Dear Honourable Prime Minister Gutić, I write to you on behalf of IndustriALL Global Union, which represents more than fifty million workers in mining, energy and manufacturing industries in 140 countries worldwide, including in Bosnia and Herzegovina, to call on your administration to intervene at GIKIL, Lukavac, to guarantee the full respect of workers’ rights at the site. Please note that the Independent Trade Union of Chemistry and Non-metal Workers in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina is affiliated to IndustriALL Global Union, and this union represents the GIKIL workers here, via the Samostalni sindikat hemije i nemetala u Federaciji Bosne i Hercegovine. We strongly condemn the mistreatment of the 1,000 workers at the company, which left the workers no other choice but to strike and demonstrate. Non-payment of wages is an unacceptable breach of international workers’ rights, as well as of the national legislation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The union was forced to make an agreement with the employer to simply follow the law and pay wages that were outstanding. The employer did then not respect even this agreement as salaries were again being paid late. The core conventions of the International Labour Organization 87 and 98 have both been ratified by Bosnia and Herzegovina since 1993. These international standards bind your administration to ensure basic trade union rights at GIKIL.

    Bosnia and Herzegovina: Attitudes on Violent Extremism and Foreign Influence

    Bosnia and Herzegovina: Attitudes on Violent Extremism and Foreign Influence January 4 - February 3, 2017 Detailed Methodology • The survey was conducted by Ipsos in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) on behalf of the International Republican Institute’s Center for Insights and Survey Research, and was funded by the National Endowment for Democracy. • Data was collected between January 4 and February 3, 2017 through face-to-face interviews at the respondents’ homes using the CAPI method (computer assisted personal interviewing). • A total of 1,537 interviews were completed, with an overall margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percent at the midrange of the 95 percent confidence level. A nationally-representative sample was assembled based on a multistage stratification proportionate to population sample distribution, through the random selection of households and respondents. • The sample is composed of citizens of BiH, aged 18 and older and was based on the 2013 Census; Vital Statistics 2012 and Ipsos estimations derived from the Central Election Commission database; Agency for Identification Documents; and the Registers and Data Exchange of Bosnia and Herzegovina database. • The sampling frame consisted of polling station territories (approximate size of census units) within strata defined by municipalities and type of settlements (urban and rural). Polling station territories enable the most reliable sample selection, due to the fact that these units represent the most comprehensive and up-to-date data available. • Households were selected according to the random route technique. Starting from a given address, interviewers selected the third house down the same side of the street or the next available house for an interview from the starting point.
