Guidebook on Public-Private Partnership in Hospital Management
Asian Development Bank | June 2013
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved a loan to the Government of the Philippines, through the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), for the Credit for Better Health Care Project (CBHCP) (Loan 2125-PHI)7 to help the country achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), specifically Goal 4 to reduce child mortality and Goal 5 to improve maternal health. The loan intends to address low and inefficient public expenditures in health care by mobilizing additional off-budget credit for pro-poor investment through a government financial intermediary (DBP), leveraging private participationb and increasing allocations toward investment priorities. These priorities include maternal and child health services, control of communicable diseases, services to improve access to basic health care, and referral services including laboratory and other diagnostic services.
