Rwanda's Health Care System & The Services Investment Forum 2014


At the 2014 Services Investment Forum (SIF) recently held in Kigali, I was delighted to participate in the panel discussion focused on our country's healthcare system.  We covered a number of topics, including how to improve quality, the drivers of prices of healthcare services, the decentralization framework that has improved geographical proximity to care, as well as where we are going as a country.  We also discussed Rwanda's health services strategies, current challenges and opportunities, and proposed solutions to overcome the existing challenges for Rwanda.  There is much to be done to create the infrastructure and environment we need to position Rwanda as a health care hub of excellence for the region and the world. And we are motivated to do this important work.  You can watch my remarks here:
