Sustaining splendid health has always been a wish for every employee of any formal organisation. If health is
not excellent, employees are likely not to function as expected hence it is imperative to have social health
insurance. This article reports on the findings derived from a research conducted in Kinshasa, Democratic
Republic of Congo. The researcher personally distributed structured questionnaires among employees in 15
organisations. Findings show that the majority of the respondents experience problems in organizing their health care where it emerged that, 1) the majority of the employees from public sector are not assisted in organizing their health care, 2) they use out-out-pocket financing means for their health care, 3) in general,
employees from public sector are not aware of health insurance and interestingly employees from mix
companies and private sector are knowledgeable on health insurance, 4) respondents with post matric
qualifications prefer to use private hospital when they are sick, 5) employees choose health facility based on good quality service provided. In general, it emerged from the findings that there is willingness to pay contribution should the social health insurance be introduced.

Vårdvalet - Val för alla? : Granskning av fördelningen av vårdcentraler före och efter vårdvalsreformenMorawski, Siri January 2014 (has links)
This master thesis is an analysis of how the amount of health centers per inhabitant has changed since the Swedish government implemented a new health care reform in 2010. The reform implies a free choice of health centers in the Swedish regions and opens up the market for private firms. The purpose of the thesis is to study the effects of the different financing systems toward the health centers in the regions. The models are based on theories of the need of health care. Two of the independent variables which are studied are income and age. The empirical results go hand in hand with the health theories about where there should be a bigger need of health care. The implementation of the new health care reform changed the effect of the independent variables marginally. The conclusion of the thesis is that there should be more studies which take the different financing systems in account and are focusing on if the health care reform is following the guide lines of the health care system of Sweden.
