Repensar estratègies de salut

Health for All – transforming economies to deliver what matters 

El Director General de la OMS va encarregar un informe l'any 2020 al que van anomenar WHO Council on the economics of health for all per tal de repensar les polítiques de la OMS sobre 4 fonaments i un conjunt de recomanacions han sorgit aquest 2023 que es mostren resumidament en aquest gràfic:



Al BMJ hi trobareu també un article sobre la qüestió. 

Firstly, it argues that we must value health for all. This means embedding the goal of human and planetary wellbeing in economic decision making and in how we measure economic progress. 

Secondly, it argues for a redesign of national and international financial systems to treat spending on health as a long term investment, and to increase the fiscal space available for this investment. 

Thirdly, it argues for an innovation ecosystem that prioritises the common good, ensuring equitable access to health innovations.

Finally, as covid-19 made clear, public sector leadership matters. Achieving ambitious health goals requires governments with the capacity to structure effective partnerships, adapt, coordinate cross-ministerial collaboration, and meaningfully engage the public. Governments’ addiction to outsourcing core functions has undermined these capabilities.A reinvigorated understanding of the state as a market shaper, and investment in dynamic state capabilities, are crucial to delivering Health for All

Temes repetits una i altra vegada per Mazzucato en diferents llocs i articles. Que la salut és una inversió a llarg termini ja ho sabíem fa temps. L'informe repeteix coses que sabem i que no s'hi fa prou cas.
