Pillar Objectives

Through public-private partnerships, Libya can gradually establish highly specialized healthcare services that will allow us to treat medical conditions that are currently being treated outside the country. The experience of other developing countries shows that the involvement of the private sector in building and managing healthcare facilities can lead to major advancements in the provision of medical services and promote competition that leads to system quality improvements. The introduction of a universal insurance scheme that can provide Libyan citizens with a choice between receiving treatment in public or private healthcare facilities can also foster competition between providers with the ultimate goal of ensuring that all Libyans have access to the best possible treatment options within the country.
