According to the World Bank, the objective of the project is to extend the coverage and improve the quality of care for the most prevalent health conditions with an emphasis on vulnerable groups.

The two components of this project are as follows:

  1. Results-based financing for quality improvement in prevention and provision of health care services to the poorest 66 municipalities (US$14 million). 
  2. Support to the implementation of national health strategies for the provision of quality health services under the MOSAFC (US$44.5 million).

According to the World Bank, Component 1 will be implemented in the poorest 66 municipalities (1.3 million people), and Component 2 will be implemented nationwide, covering all 19 Local Systems of Comprehensive Care (SILAIS per its acronym in Spanish), including the Alto Wangki Bocay. 

The project will improve the quality of health care services nationwide with emphasis on the following population throughout their lifecycles: (a) women at reproductive age; (b) children under five years of age; (c) adults over 50 years of age with identified risk factors; (d) adolescents (both girls and boys); and (e) indigenous population.

Contact Information
This section aims to support the local communities and local CSO to get to know which stakeholders are involved in a project with their roles and responsibilities. If available, there may be a complaint office for the respective bank which operates independently to receive and determine violations in policy and practice. Independent Accountability Mechanisms receive and respond to complaints. Most Independent Accountability Mechanisms offer two functions for addressing complaints: dispute resolution and compliance review.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF WORLD BANK

The World Bank Inspection Panel is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by a World Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Inspection Panel, they may investigate to assess whether the World Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can contact the Inspection Panel or submit a complaint by emailing ipanel@worldbank.org. You can learn more about the Inspection Panel and how to file a complaint at: http://ewebapps.worldbank.org/apps/ip/Pages/Home.aspx.
