Particular attention was paid to monitoring the quality of medical care and payment for results.
In addition, the French delegation was part of the seminar held by SHIF and attended by the representatives of SHIF branches, the National Scientific Center for Health Development and the National Center for Public Health was held. The purpose of the seminar was to present possible solutions to issues in financing the health care system.
Representatives of the French School of Public Health – Samuel Hillier, Jean-Marie Andre and Muriel Bochet, presented approaches to financing healthcare in France and spoke about the latest updates in the health insurance system in France and other EU countries.
Such collaboration activities contribute to the exchange of knowledge and experience and strengthening international cooperation in healthcare financing. SHIF views this as a potential contribution to the development of the compulsory health insurance system in Kazakhstan and hopes this visit will serve to further develop cooperation with the French School of Public Health.
