Use of Private Health Facility Census Data to Inform Programs
This presentation discusses lessons learned from conducting private health facility censuses in eight countries: Antigua and Barbuda, Benin, Dominica, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria (six states), St. Kitts and Nevis, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. These exercises were designed to take a census of the private health facilities in each of these countries, including key characteristics such as location and types of services provided. Data from private health facility censuses may be used for a wide variety of purposes. Key challenges in conducting private health facility censuses include locating facilities and collecting certain types of information (e.g., expenses and quality data). The presentation was made by Douglas Johnson at a Private Sector Working Group meeting in December 2013.

Using Willingness to Pay Data to Inform the Design of Health Insurance: Evidence from Nigeria
While there is significant interest in expanding insurance coverage among the poor through micro-health insurance, there are important barriers, such as price, which may limit uptake. We investigate individuals’ interest in different health insurance packages and willingness to pay for these packages, to inform the design of health insurance products that better meet the needs of the urban poor in Lagos, Nigeria. This presentation was made at the PSWG Quarterly Meeting on February 6, 2013.

Nigeria Private Health Sector Assessment (2012)
This brief is a summary of the Nigeria private health sector assessment conducted by the SHOPS project in 2010. Ananya Price prepared this brief which presents the assessment methods, findings, and the following key recommendations:
- Expand the supply of quality private sector health services in reproductive health/family planning
- Enhance demand for private sector RH/FP services
- Create an enabling policy environment for the private sector
- Ensure effective donor coordination for strengthening the private health sector
- Support a rigorous research agenda for the private health sector
To increase utilization of all modern family planning methods through the private sector, efforts need to be made by the government and its development partners to effectively link active and targeted demand-creation efforts to supply side strategies, to create an effective policy environment, and to pursue a rigorous research agenda for this sector to reach its maximum potential.
