Burkina Faso: President Ibrahim Traoré implements his policy of quality healthcare for all for the benefit of the population
The quality healthcare policy for all, promoted by the President of Faso, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, is being materialized through concrete actions for the population. On one hand, the government is committed to the rehabilitation and construction of modern healthcare infrastructures to ensure better access to healthcare services. This dynamic aims to strengthen the healthcare network in Faso and provide facilities tailored to the needs of citizens, thus reducing regional disparities in healthcare services.
On the other hand, a major advancement has been made with the reduction of costs for essential medical exams, making specialized care more accessible to all. The decision made in the Council of Ministers on March 13, 2024, led to a significant reduction in the prices of CT scans, MRIs, and dialysis sessions. Now, a CT scan costs 25,000 F CFA instead of 50,000 F CFA, an MRI is set at 40,000 F CFA instead of 100.000 F CFA, and the 500. 000 F CFA deposit for dialysis has been removed, thus eliminating a major barrier to the care of patients suffering from kidney failure.
This policy of facilitating access to healthcare is praised by both the population and healthcare professionals across the country. From the regional hospital center of Tenkodogo to the Yalgado OUEDRAOGO University Hospital Center, and the regional hospital center of Ziniaré, beneficiaries express their satisfaction with these measures that significantly improve their care. Under the leadership of President Ibrahim Traoré, Burkina Faso continues its commitment to an inclusive and equitable healthcare system, ensuring the well-being of all.
