1 Universal Health Care The First Step to Global Health Equity A Pre-General Assembly Workshop IFMSA General Assembly August Meeting 2012 August 5-9, 2012 Mumbai, India IFMSA Global Health Equity Initiative
2 Background Last year, the International Federation of Medical Students Associations (IFMSA) renewed its commitment to the vision of Alma Ata a world where health is a fundamental human right, a universal societal goal, and a state of well-being enjoyed by everyone. In short, health is and should be for all. In March Meeting 2011 in Jakarta, we looked into the gross disparities in health that continue to afflict the majority of the world s peoples. During our 60th anniversary conference in Copenhagen last August 2011, we imagined the future of health and looked into various ways towards achieving a healthier and more just world. And this March 2012 in Ghana, we recognized action on social determinants of health as the key intervention for achieving global health equity. But where do we start in addressing health inequalities through action on social determinants of health? The WHO Commission on Social Determinants of Health identified the health system as one of the crucial determinants of health within countries, and proposed that universal access to health care as a starting point. Today, nearly 100 countries are investing huge resources, establishing agencies, commissioning researches, and holding consultations as they all rush towards the finish line of universal health coverage. The Pre-GA Workshop on Universal Health Care This workshop on Universal Health Care matches the theme of the IFMSA General Assembly this August India is a perfect place to sit together and discuss about universal health care, as the country now experiences a gradual transition towards provision of easily accessible and affordable health care to all Indians by A national health-insurance scheme geared towards increasing access for the poor started rolling in April 2008, and so far it has enabled 100 million to have cashless, paperless, portable access to inpatient health care provided by more than 8,000 public and private hospitals across the country. During this workshop, around 30 participants will sit together to learn about the fundamentals of health systems, the basis as well as the pathways to universal health care, its connection with the social determinants approach to health, and how can this movement be pushed forward by medical students. Participants will give special attention to the Indian example while they also bring their knowledge and experience of their respective countries struggles towards health for all.
3 General Objectives By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to: Appreciate the concept of universal health care, its importance, models, and pathways Understand the national and global contexts surrounding the worldwide movement towards universal health care Recognize the role of medical students in advocating for and influencing policies geared towards universal health care Specific Objectives Under each general objective, specific questions will be answered throughout the workshop: Appreciate the concept of universal health care, its importance, models, and pathways o What is universal health care? Does it differ from universal health coverage? Health for all? Health equity? o Why should countries aim to achieve universal health care? What are the bases for achieving health for all? o What is a health system, and how can it be strengthened to achieve universal health care? Understand the national and global contexts surrounding the worldwide movement towards universal health care o How is universal health care related to social determinants of health? o What are the push and pull factors for universal health care in national and global contexts? o What are the similarities as well as differences of experiences of various countries in their struggle for universal health care? Recognize the role of medical students in advocating for and influencing policies geared towards universal health care o How can we encourage people to support the cause of universal health care? o How can we convince national leaders and policy makers that universal health care must be achieved now? o How can we better prepare medical doctors for universal health care?
4 Methodology The five-day workshop will utilize a wide array of methods, including interactive lectures, small and large group discussions, film showing, field trips, and individual and group presentations. A special feature is a policy analysis of selected cases of projects aiming to address universal health care issues. This will enable participants to apply first-hand the basic knowledge and skills they acquired during the earlier parts of the workshop. Even before the pre-ga, the workshop trainers will begin interacting with the participants by giving them background reading materials, allowing them to introduce themselves to others, and throwing in initial ideas and insights about the subject matter. We will also advise them to prepare for the session on comparative health systems, where participants will briefly talk about their country s health system. Participants We aim to gather participants from around the world, ensuring regional representation and bringing in both newcomers and old timers in IFMSA. We envision this cohort to launch a small working group that will focus on universal health care within the IFMSA Global Health Equity Initiative. All participants will be requested to prepare for the pre-ga workshop and continue their passion and action for universal health care even beyond the workshop. Workshop Trainers Renzo R. Guinto (Workshop Director) from the Philippines is the Regional Coordinator for the Asia- Pacific of IFMSA and the Founding Coordinator of the IFMSA Global Health Equity Initiative. He was also the facilitator of the Small Working Group on Health Inequities and led the IFMSA delegation to the World Conference on Social Determinants of Health last October 19-21, 2011 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Since 2011 he has been involved with the Universal Health Care Study Group of the University of the Philippines National Institutes of Health. Renzo is also a Youth Commissioner of the Commission on Global Governance for Health convened by The Lancet, University of Oslo, and Harvard Global Health Institute. Altagracia Mares de Leon (Workshop Co-Director) from Mexico is a member of the IFMSA Global Health Equity Initiative and its forerunner Small Working Group on Health Inequities. A proud SCOPHian, she was also part of the IFMSA delegation to the World Conference on Social Determinants of Health last October 19-21, 2011 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

9 Expected Outcomes For Participants Better understanding of universal health care and health systems, as well as the national and global contexts shaping universal health care (social determinants of health) Development of skills for influencing policy change, especially policies and programs related to universal health care For the Federation A new group of IFMSA members with enhanced knowledge of universal health care who will lead discussions and advocacy efforts within the IFMSA Global Health Equity Initiative New advocacy and project ideas pertaining to universal health care A newly-designed pioneering workshop on universal health care that can be replicated by NMOs and various groups within IFMSA Follow-up Plan Creation of a googlegroup that will continue discussions and interaction among participants even after the General Assembly Encouragement of prega participants to initiate local projects and activities pertaining to universal health care in their own countries Possible linking up with international NGOs, advocacy groups, and research institutions focused on universal health care, its implementation and evaluation Resources Needed Room for people (plus 2 trainers) with high speed internet access Accommodation for people (plus 2 trainers) Chairs that can be easily rearranged, depending on activities Breakfast, lunch, and dinner during the entire pre-aprm period Flipcharts, markers, metacards, Post-It notes, bond paper LCD projector, speaker, microphones For the field trip: tour guide with knowledge about Indian health care system; health care facilities to visit a local health center and a tertiary public hospital; transport to the health care facilities; snacks and water for participants Note: In support of the IFMSA Green Charter, all hand-outs will be provided in electronic version.
10 Projected Budget Item Cost Pre-GA participant package* 5400 euros Materials/Stationery** 100 euros Travel** 100 euros Honorarium/Tokens for Tour Guides** 100 euros TOTAL 5700 euros *It is assumed that when the AM2012 Organizing Committee projected the pre-ga participation fee to be 180 euros per person, it is assumed that included in this are accommodation, food, airport transfer, and venue for the pre-ga. **Should the pre-ga fee be flexibly utilized, these three items are therefore requested to be shouldered from the same fund as well. Since we are utilizing IFMSA trainers experienced in the subject of universal health care, we will not need to pay for travel expenses for external speakers. Since we will not be printing our hand-outs, we will only seek for assistance for flipcharts, markers, metacards, Post-It notes, and bond paper which can be obtained from the pre-ga fee. It is assumed that other requirements such as LCD projector and speaker are already included in the venue reservations made by the AM2012 Organizing Committee. The only major expense aside from the aforementioned expected expenses is the local travel for the field trip to health care facilities in Mumbai, as well as the honorarium for the tour guide. Fundraising Plans Should the pre-ga participation fees cannot cover the materials, transportation, and honoraria for tour guides, we will be happy to coordinate with the IFMSA VPE and Treasurer as to how we can raise the 300 euros. Hopefully, we will be able to acquire the stationery for free due to having access to surplus stationary from other conferences. In the event we fundraise more than is required, we will use the excess for providing travel assistance for participants facing financial constraints.
