Health Care Policies Addressing Transgender Inmates in Prison Systems in the United States

Brown, George R., McDuffie, Everett 01 October 2009 (has links)
Inmates with gender identity disorders (GID) pose special challenges to policy makers in U.S. prison systems. Transgender persons are likely overrepresented in prisons; a reasonable estimate is that at least 750 transgender prisoners were in custody in 2007. Using the Freedom of Information Act, requests were mailed to each state, the District of Columbia, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons in 2007. The requests were for copies of policies, directives, memos, or other documents concerning placement and health care access of transgender inmates. By April 2008, 46 responses were received; 6 states did not reply. Information was qualitatively analyzed and summarized. There was substantial disparity in transgender health care for inmates with GID or related conditions. Most systems allowed for diagnostic evaluations. There was wide variability in access to cross-sex hormones, with some allowing for continuation of treatment and others allowing for both continuation and de novo initiation of treatment. There was uniformity in denial of surgical treatments for GID.

Essais sur la ressource humaine en santé et l’utilisation des services de santé maternelle en Afrique sub-saharienne / Essays on human resources for health and utilization of maternal health services in sub-Saharan Africa

Nkoumou Ngoa, Brice Gaston 15 December 2017 (has links)
Cette thèse étudie l'effet des prix sur les décisions des professionnels de santé et l'utilisation des services de santé maternelle dans le contexte de l'Afrique sub-saharienne. Les deux premiers chapitres s'intéressent à l'effet de la rémunération du travail sur les choix d'effort et la pluriactivité des professionnels de santé. En se basant sur des données collectées au niveau périphérique du système de santé Camerounais (Yaoundé et Douala), il apparaît que la rémunération du travail dans l'emploi principal n'a aucun effet significatif sur les choix d'effort et la pluriactivité des professionnels de santé. Une politique de hauts salaires apparaît ainsi insuffisante pour contrôler l'effort au travail et le phénomène d'emploi multiple des professionnels de santé. Le troisième chapitre analyse l'impact à court terme de la gratuité des soins d'accouchement et de césarienne sur l'utilisation des services de santé maternelle au Sénégal. Cette évaluation ne permet pas à court terme de mettre en évidence à un quelconque impact positif de la mesure de gratuité sur l'utilisation des services de santé maternelle. La mise à l'échelle précipitée des politiques de gratuité peut dès lors être interrogée dans ce contexte. / This thesis studies the effect of prices on the decisions of health professionals and the use of maternal health services in sub-Saharan Africa. The first two chapters are concerned with the effect of wages on the effort choices and the multiple job holding of health professionals. Based on data collected at the peripheral level of the Cameroonian health system (Yaoundé and Douala), it appears that wages in the main job have no significant effect on the effort choice and the multiple job holding of the health professionals. Thus, a policy of high wages appears insufficient to control the shirking behaviour and the multiple job holding phenomenon of health professionals in the sub-Saharan context. The third chapter analyzes the short-term impact of the free delivery and caesarean program on the use of maternal health services in Senegal. This evaluation does not show in a short-term any positive impact of the free-of-charge measure on the use of maternal health services. The hasty scaling-up of free-of-charge policies can be then questioned in this context.
