Abstract

In this paper we use the results of the Integrated Core Survey for Poverty Assessment in Guinea (EIBEP, 2002-2003) realised by the Guinean Government and the World Bank to study how the population's and particularly the poor's access to health care. Despite considerable improvement in health supply following the application of the Bamako Initiative (1987) and the increasing development of mutual insurance, we show that many obstacles persist: institutional dysfunction, poor quality of services, clientelism in health Centers... Removing these barriers will support actual health policy and help reforming in continuity. A sustained commitment of Guinean state is suggested to consolidate the hospital infrastructure and promote a good functioning of the National health system.
