    Description
    The experts’ contribution targeted several dimensions of organizational capacities and tools that are key to allow the Institut National d’Assurance Maladie (INAM) of Togo to efficiently run an extension of health insurance coverage to private sector’s workers and aim to full, universal coverage. Among the matters tackled by mobilized teams of experts from France, Italy, and Romania were contracting capabilities and management of agreements with health care providers, costing of medical procedures, and economic and actuarial analysis. The technical assistance has thus provided very specific, methodological and operational recommendations that aim to enlarge INAM’s set of tools and knowledge necessary to efficiently run health insurance.

    Description
    The Ministry of Public Function, Labour, Administrative Reform and Social Protection of Togo requested SOCIEUX+ support to reshuffle the institutional framework for social dialogue, notably the role of the Conseil National pour le Dialogue social. Deepening the social dialogue is seen as part of an economic development strategy based on greater social cohesion and a fair allocation of the dividends of growth. Experts from Belgium and France have analyzed the current situation and provided methodological recommendations with a view to organising a round table aimed to renew and restart the institutional framework for social dialogue; to this purpose, experts have prepared an orientation note, a proposal of agenda, and supporting documentation.

    Description
    Experts mobilized from France and Lebanon delivered an analysis of Togo’s Institut National d’Assurance Maladie (INAM)’s institutional organization and capacities. The assessment focused on the challenges faced by INAM in view of the extension of health coverage, clarified the institutional responsibilities, while identifying issues requiring further technical assistance to INAM, such as the preparation of a strategic plan, the enhancement of internal capacities in the field of “risk management,” and the development of a management information system. The first two topics were then addressed by experts through peer-to-peer exchanges with the relevant INAM’s executives and staff, presenting models and good practices applicable to INAM’s context and needs.
