Abstract
This chapter talks about health care as a universal concern and health policy. It provides an overview of policy analysis within the health care sector across problem definition, policy development and implementation stages at the national, departmental, and local levels of government. It also identifies four concrete examples of opportunities for policy analysis in the health sector, as well as two substantial obstacles or “bottlenecks.” The chapter discusses the development of policy analysis studies in the Colombian health sector since the health reform in 1993, and the heterogeneity of such development across different health sector institutions in Colombia. It assesses how policy analysis in the health sector evolved over time, highlighting the divergent development in national-level and local-level institutions.
This book is an innovative and systematic overview of policy analysis in Colombia and an instructive view of how it might help studies elsewhere. It casts new light on Colombia in a systematic overview of policy analysis for an international audience. Examining the historical development and current status of policy analysis as a field of study and in practice, the book considers public policy analysis in government and the judiciary, and across domains including health, education and the military. Chapters delve into Colombia's notable success in economic regeneration, the management of cultural diversity and the resolution of long-term internal armed conflict. Not just an important summation of policy analysis in Colombia, the book also provides insights and lessons applicable elsewhere.Leading Colombian academics and experienced policy practitioners cast new light on their country in this systematic overview of policy analysis for an international audience.Examining the historical development and current status of policy analysis as a field of study and in practice, it considers public policy analysis in government and the judiciary, and across domains including health, education and the military.
