The new dialogue structure established in the health sector in Mozambique between MoH and partners includes 6 thematic working groups (Service Delivery, Planning, Financing and Strategic Investment (PFSI), Emergencies and public health, Logistics and Pharma, Data for decision making).
The PFSI group is chaired by the National Director of Planning and co-chaired by the World Bank. The objectives of the group are to ensure strategic planning and budgeting processes that can respond to health needs and promote efficiency and effectiveness.
A special attention is given to what is called Resource Monitoring and Expenditure Tracking (RMET), which intends to capture all sources of funding and track spending, so as to identify the linkages between spending and priority actions. Health financing policy and the expansion of the public hospital network will be other major areas of technical work and debate in this group.
P4H is part of this group, jointly with relevant players in the field, i.e. WHO, Belgian Cooperation (PFM Adviser to MoH), GFF, UNAIDS, USAID, Canada, Ireland. P4H contributes mainly in the area of health financing policy and expenditure analysis.
