Applying The Contractual Approach In Public Health Institutions In Algeria: An Unfinished Reform Project.

Authors : Senoussi Ali .

Abstract

Public healthcare institutions in Algeria are facing significant challenges regarding their credibility due to the declining quality of care and healthcare services provided, leading to a loss of trust among patients. To address this issue, the Algerian government has adopted a strategy to revitalize the contractual approach, through the establishment of effective funding mechanisms and improvement of infrastructure within healthcare institutions, in addition to enhancing service quality and defining relationships among stakeholders. As a result, the revival of the contractual approach is crucial at present, especially after its delayed implementation since 1992 due to various factors.
