Project Description
The project provides advisory assistance to the government of Belo
Horizonte (BH) Municipality to improve its primary health care network
through the use of public-private partnerships (PPPs). Deliverables
include a series of diagnostics and the successful closing of the bidding
by October 2011. The objective is to implement PPPs in 147 primary care
clinics in BH. Expected impacts include mobilization of private
investments ($143 million) and services that will reach 390,000 families
(1.7 million people, by government estimates). The project anticipates
that it will attract private players that can handle the whole municipal
primary care network under high quality standards and generate
efficiencies for the municipality.
