OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE HEALTH SECTOR 3

PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP IN UGANDA’S HEALTH SECTOR.

Uganda is joining a growing number of Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries in recognizing the positive role of the private health sector in contributing to national health priorities. Towards that end, the Government of Uganda (GoU) passed a National Public Private Partnership Policy in Health (herein referred to as PPP/H Policy).

Uganda’s Ministry of Health (MoH) formed an Advisory Committee in April 2016 to lead a consultative, inclusive process to draft Uganda’s first ever PPP/H Strategic Plan. The PPPH strategic plan is a result of this process and fully integrates both public and private sector perspectives on potential partnerships that will help address some of the Uganda’s long-standing health priorities and system gaps.

Dr. Jane Ruth AcengMinister for Health

Republic of Uganda


Rationale for partnershipsThe private health sector in Uganda plays a crucial role in delivering health services and products in Uganda. The spirit of the PPP/H Policy is based on several important Ugandan policies and laws. The PPP/H Policy responds to the 1995 Constitution’s political objective of promoting private initiatives and self-reliance which requires strong government and private sector collaboration. Moreover, the National Development Plan admonishes the government to promote public private partnerships (PPP) enabling the private sector to contribute fully to national health goals.

Government of Uganda also recognizes the private sector’s contribution in health and it figures in key government documents. The National Health Sector Strategic and Investment Plan acknowledges the private sector as a critical partner in the delivery of the Minimum Health Care Package (UMHCP) as do successive national health policies. Similarly, the National Health Policy recognizes PPPs as an important strategy to strengthen health systems in Uganda. To further enhance collaboration between the sectors, the government developed the National Policy on Public Private Partnerships in Health.

The basic premise of PPP/Hs is, given their relative strengths and weaknesses, neither public sector nor the private sector alone can achieve desirable health outcomes.

Therefore, partnerships intend to leverage relative strengths of each other to achieve public health goals. Uganda is joining several countries who use PPP/Hs as a key policy option to:


• overcome the systemic deficiencies in the public health system and its inability to meet the growing demand for quality health care of people;

• improve service coverage and access to people in inaccessible geographical areas and for underserved sections of population;

• leverage the technical and managerial skills of the private sector to provide innovative and cost-effective health services;

• prevent impoverishment among the uninsured poor while seeking expensive services from the private sector;

• augment private sector’s resources to invest, manage and improve health infrastructure and health resources;

• growing realization that inter-sectoral approach to health service delivery would be more efficient and cost-effective than separate, uncoordinated efforts;

• encourage adherence to quality standards, rational clinical practices and patient safety; and,

• ensure accountability of the private sector through legal and regulatory oversight.

Public Private Partnership in Health Strategic DirectionThe purpose of the Five-Year Strategic Plan for PPP/Hs was to develop a consensus document between the public and private health sectors that represents their best thinking on what PPP/H projects will”


• yield “value for money” as well as “value for health”;

• allocate risk appropriately between public and private health sectors; and

• are in the best interest of Ugandans by addressing equity, access and quality in healthcare services.

A key feature of the Strategic Plan is that all PPP/Hs are anchored to public health priorities. The PPP/H Strategic Plan is being used to inform the MoH’s strategic directions, types of PPP/Hs the MoH will invest in, and the level and type of resources it will allocate to implement PPP/Hs.

Uganda is transitioning from the exploration into the development phase. The development phase will create 4,000 direct jobs, 42,000 indirect jobs and 100,000 induced jobs. It is also expected that tens of thousands of people will be attracted to the Albertine Graben and along the pipeline corridors during this development stage because of the economic pull factors.

In addition, several supporting infrastructural projects are being developed and these include roads covering over 500km, an international airport, a 29 sqm industrial park which will host the refinery and petrochemical industries among others. These activities are expected to bring challenges and opportunities to the country’s health sector among others.

The Petroleum Authority of Uganda (PAU) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Uganda Healthcare Federation would wish to partner with private sector health providers in areas of health and nutrition in the Albertine graben. Priority areas of partnership with the private sector may be in the


following; Policy development, health systems strengthening and service delivery, monitoring and evaluation, coordination and planning, financial resources mobilization and allocation, human resources for health management and capacity building and finally community empowerment and mobilization for healthy living.

The following shall be the roles of Government in this partnership.

• Policy formulation, standards setting and quality assurance

• Strategic planning and research• Regulation of health care providers (public and private)• Validation and accreditation of regulations and bylaws• Resource mobilization• Capacity development and technical support• Provision of nationally coordinated services e.g. epi-

demic control• Coordination of health services• Capacity building through training and supervision• Monitoring and evaluation of the overall sector perfor-

mance

The partnership Role of the Private Health Sector may include;• Providing priority services to the communities within

which they operate


• Contributing towards policies development, planning, monitoring and evaluation

• Resource mobilization for health care from households, organizations both local and international

• Providing or participating in research, community and social mobilization, advocacy, capacity building including human resources development, logistical support, technical assistance and other services at all levels

• Ensuring proper utilization of resources, reporting and accountability

I am delighted that the Petroleum Authority in Uganda has organized this consultative process harmonize and align government priorities with the private sector health partners and to leverage private sector health providers resources to improve on population health especially in the oil and gas region. I appeal to all private health providers to use the recommendations from the consultative process to guide future private sector health planning in the oil and gas region.


LEVERAGING THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY INVESTMENTS TO

CREATE ECONOMIC LINKAGES

Experience from oil producing countries across the world shows that, for the extractives sector to spur inclusive growth, deliberate efforts have to be made to ensure that the benefits from the sector reach the wider population. This will primarily be achieved through growing the participation of Ugandans and Ugandan enterprises in the provision of goods and services to the oil and gas sector.

Ugandan enterprises have continued to supply the country’s oil and gas sector at different levels and in different service categories ranging from logistics, legal services, land surveys, environment studies, catering, camp management, transportation, civil works and geotechnical studies. Participation of Ugandan enterprises in these categories formed part of the over USD 900 million (28%) the total expenditure on oil and gas activities in the country cumulative value retention in the country reported during the exploration phase.

Mr. Ernest N.T. Rubondo Executive Director

Petroleum Authority of Uganda


To build on these achievements, and in view of the expected USD 20 billion investment in the next three to four years, the PAU continues to highlight the opportunities that the oil and gas sector is bringing to the country. The Authority has so far worked with sectors such as health, education, transport, agriculture, tourism, housing engineering and construction as part of the effort to enhance these.

The PAU is looking forward to the development of the industry in a way that will ensure that the sector significantly contributes to Uganda’s socio-economic transformation through efficient and sustainable petroleum resource management and appropriate linkages to the other sectors of the economy. Achievement of this goal requires adequate preparation and implementation of a road map that positions the respective sectors to contribute to addressing any challenges but also reap the benefits.

The PAU therefore appreciates the health sector for proactively working to identify its linkages with the oil and gas sector and for starting to work towards harnessing these linkage to the benefit of the benefit of the country in general and the two sectors in particular.


UGANDA HEALTHCARE FEDERATION: THE FACE OF THE PRIVATE HEALTH SECTOR

The Uganda Healthcare Federation (UHF) is an umbrella body established in 2010, to champion the interests of the private health sector. UHF was born out of the need to have a representative body that unites and represents the private health sector while offering government, health development partners and health stakeholders an informed sector partner, through whom to engage the private health sector. UHF is affiliated to the East African Healthcare Federation, the African Healthcare Federation, and the East Africa Business Council through the East Africa Health Platform (EAHP).

As a membership organization with 55 members comprised of non-state health sector stakeholders including medical service providers, health professional associations/ human resources in health, health facilities, health insurers (including the Health Membership Organisation HMOs), health training institutes, distributors, manufacturers, civil society partners and social franchises.

Grace Ssali KiwanukaExecutive Director

Uganda Healthcare Federation


Over the years, the UHF has built strong working relationships with key players in the health sector including the regulatory councils and is a relevant and regular contributor to development of legislation and policy through membership of the Ministry of Health (MOH) various Technical Working Groups, and the MOH Health Policy Advisory Committee (HPAC). In line with our keen interest in private sector quality improvement and inclusion in health financing notably the planned National Health Insurance, the UHF is a member of the MOH National Quality Improvement Committee, the National Health Insurance Scheme Taskforce, the National Coordination Committee on Tuberculosis. In addition to lobbying and advocacy, UHF implements programs in partnership with or through the diverse membership to ensure sustainability and application at the grassroots. All UHF’s activities focus on quality improvement, private sector capacity building and providing opportunities for networking and private sector business growth.

This year, the UHF celebrates nine years of existence- a journey that began with a grant from USAID/Uganda Private Health Support Program and further execution of contracts and grants on behalf of USAID/Uganda Private Health Support Program, PharmAccess Foundation, Swecare Foundation, the World Bank, and Merck for Mothers.

Through these relationships, the UHF has spearheaded advocacy for private health sector interests for access to affordable financing, commercial private sector inclusion, member capacity building through business and finance management training and availing tools and templates. The UHF offers coaching and technical support for private sector quality self-assessment and verification of self-assessments for quality improvement using the MOH Self-regulatory Quality Improvement System (SQIS). Additionally, the UHF provides market entry strategies and business advisory services for health businesses interested in Uganda, as well as hosting trade missions.


Because of the unique and sensitive nature of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) and the importance of improvement in the related indicators, the UHF is working towards improving private facility data reporting and advocating for inclusion of Private Health facilities’ inclusion in government health financing mechanisms.

The UHF is committed to continued commercial private sector promotion and impactful implementation as a reliable partner and stakeholder.

1. INTRODUCTIONUganda’s oil and gas sector is transitioning from exploration and appraisal to the development phase in preparation for sustainable production of the petroleum resources that have been discovered in the country. Estimated total resources of 6.0 billion barrels of oil have been discovered with over 1.4bn barrels recoverable and close to 500 billion cubic feet of gas resources.

The Key Projects

Preparation of the already discovered oil fields for production (development), is being undertaken under two separate projects, the Tilenga project in Buliisa and Nwoya districts, and the Kingfisher project in Kikuube and Hoima Districts.

The Tilenga Project includes a Central Processing Facility (CPF) with capacity to process 190,000 barrels of oil per day, and over 412 wells. The CPF is infrastructure used to process crude oil, which is received directly from the oil wells, by removing impurities and water and separating the produced gas from the crude oil. The project also includes construction of camps that will accommodate 4,000 to 6,000 workers expected during the construction phase of the facilities that include the CPF, Well Pads, a feeder pipeline and Infield flowlines.

The Kingfisher project has a planned CPF with a production capacity of 40,000 barrels of oil per day and 31 wells to be drilled on 4 well pads. The project is planned to have 16 kilometres of flow lines and a 55km feeder pipeline from the CPF in Buhuka, Hoima district, to the Export Hub and refinery in Kabaale. This project also includes construction of camps that will accommodate 2000 to 3000 workers expected during the construction phase of the above-said facilities.

AFRICA’S LEADING INDEPENDENT OIL COMPANY


A 1445km long, 24-inch diameter, buried and heated East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) from Kabaale, Hoima in Uganda to Chongoleani in Tanga, Tanzania, is being developed to transport crude oil from Uganda to the Tanga port in Tanzania. The pipeline will have a loading pad in Kabaale, six pumping stations and 27 heating stations along the route together with a facility to load crude oil on to tankers at Chongoleani. This pipeline will go through 10 districts in Uganda including Hoima, Kakumiro, Kyankwanzi, Mubende, Gomba, Sembabule, Lwengo, Rakai, Kikuube and Kyotera with major construction camps at, Kakumiro, Mubende, Sembabule and Kyotera

Government plans to build a 60,000-barrel per day refinery. The Uganda Refinery Project includes development of 211-kilometre petroleum products pipeline from Hoima to North West of Kampala, and the development cost is estimated at US$ 3 - 4 billion.

These developments pause the need for planning and implementing strategic interventions in the Health Sector in order to address future expected challenges that would arise out of the oil and gas operations.


2. OVERVIEW OF HEALTH ISSUES IN THE OIL AND GAS SECTORThe above-mentioned projects are expected to create over 160,000 jobs with 14,000 direct, 42,000 indirect and over 105,000 induced. There is therefore an expected influx of people in the operation areas in the Albertine Graben and the districts traversed by the export pipeline. This presents an opportunity to accelerate development of the local and macro economy through linkages with other sectors of the economy including the health sector.

During the exploration and appraisal phase, the health services for the people working on the operations were mainly the responsibility of the licensee.

The following are points to note;

(i) There were camp clinics with the Doctor and/ or a Medic on site.

(ii) In case of a medical emergency, private health centers were engaged to manage the situation.

(iii) Private Companies were contracted to handle Medvac (helicopter and ambulance)

(iv) There were private players that carried out fitness checks e.g. City Ambulance

Furthermore, the oil and gas operations present potential risks for human health. It is important that the responsible stakeholders, specifically the relevant Government Ministries Departments and Agencies as well as the International Oil Companies and contractors ensure that adequate risk management procedures are implemented to protect the health of all personnel including employees and the public.

Health Hazards from oil and gas operations can result in the development of diseases and sicknesses among employees. Such hazards can be categorized into physical, chemical, biological, mechanical/ergonomic and psychosocial health hazards. In addition, public health issues can result from effects of oil and gas operations on ground and surface water, soil and sediments, ambient air quality and public health emergencies.

The oil and gas operations tend to also stimulate other sectors of the economy such as petrochemical industry, agriculture, education, retail and wholesale business activities, leisure and entertainment, public transportation among others. There is also potential in-migration from neighboring countries like DRC, South Sudan as well as from other areas of Uganda in search for better opportunities in the oil and gas sectors as well as other developments. Ultimately, these lead to an increase in population in the host areas such as Albertine Graben and along the pipeline corridor hence increase in stress on the existing public medical and health facilities.

The potential health impacts of oil and gas operations pause the need to carry out both preventative and curative health measures. These impacts can be categorized into the following:


Table 1: The potential health impacts of oil and gas operations

Exposure to potentially hazardous materials

Food and nutrition related issues

Housing and Environmental issues Cultural health practicesVector related diseases Occupational health and safetyIncreased rates of zoonotic disease (including rabies, ebola, ascariases and brucellosis)

Health services infrastructure capacity

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) including HIV/AIDS

Non-communicable disease

Disease linked to soil, water, sanitation and waste

Increased rates of Tuberculosis (TB) and respiratory disease

Accidents and injuries Increase in prevalence of water, soil, sanitation and waste related disease

Increase in teenage and unwanted pregnancy due to increased practice of risky sexual behavior

Improper management of waste or discharge that could lead to contamination of local environment and impact on human and livestock health

Psychosocial effects (social determi-nants of health) in relation to popula-tion increase, urbanization and direct and indirect employment

Increased prevalence of substance misuse due to increased incomes from compensation payments and employment.


3. OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTMENT IN THE HEALTH SECTORGiven the above expectations, the available opportunities are summarized as below;

(i) Provision of Medical Services to the Oil Companies, contrac-tors and subcontractors

Medical Emergency Response Planning and management.

Provision of onsite clinics, medical staff, equipment and supplies and road ambulances

Consultancy services for the development of health management systems, policies and procedures.

Health Risk Assessments, gap analysis and planning of medical services

Topside Support service- 24/7 medical support (on call)

Medical Assistance and Medical Evacuations.

Personnel medical insurance

Occupational Health Services

Other services that will be required by the oil companies include;

Medical training programs

Management of community clinics and health programs

Medical supplies and logistics

Medical infrastructure services

Development of international liaisons within the health

sector


These services will be advertised and will be competed for by private service providers. There is however, a standard that providers need to meet; the QHSE - OHSAS 18001 (also same as ISO140001) - Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems some of the requirements under this standard include;

Reducing the potential for accidents and creating a safe and healthy working environment.

Identifying health and safety risks, and associated legal requirements

Understanding the health and safety issues faced by employees and their potential impacts

Establishing health and safety goals and targets

Creating a formal health and safety policy

Communicating the policy and its implementation to employees

Monitoring and auditing the activities that control health and safety risks

(ii) Establishment of a mega private health care facility

This can be established at an ideal location in the Albertine Graben. This can also be achieved through expansion of private care centers like EDPA and City Medical among others that are already existing in the Albertine Graben or establishment of a completely new health facility in the Graben.

(iii) Staffing and equipping existing public health centers and hospitals this can be done on a PPP basis or by government entirely


4. CONCLUSION As opportunities continue to unfold, players in the health industry are encouraged to;

(i) Register on the National Supplier Database (NSD) which is a pre-requisite to supply the Petroleum Industry.

(ii) Prepare, acquire the necessary certifications and build capacity through collaborations and Joint Ventures with experienced companies.

(iii) Familiarize with the required oil and gas health standards.
