Research Interest
My research consists in an economic analysis of the ‘performance-based contracts’ as a new tool to finance health care systems in developing countries. This type of incentives contracts provide the health care providers with bonuses if they meet a targeted level of indicators (output or input indicators). I will use principal-agent theory to analyze the relationships between the actors involved in the contracts (the international community (IC), the national government (NG) and the health care providers (HP)). In early stage of my research, I will focus on two models. In the first one, I will compare two structures: the first is when the principal (who set up the contract) is the IC and the second one is when the NG is the principal. In the second model, I will endogenize the type of contract. I will thus compare what type of contract (output indicators or both inputs and outputs indicators) should be set up depending on who is the principal.
