Review of health and social care reform measures in Finland

The Ministry of Social Affairs and Health invited the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies to organize a panel of international experts to provide an evidence-informed pre-review of proposed comprehensive health and social care reform measures in Finland. The review had four broad aims:

To review the objectives of the reform proposals
To assess the expected impact of reform proposals by analyzing the strategies for re-form and drawing on experience with similar reforms elsewhere in relevant countries
To identify prerequisites to enable effective reform implementation
To provide possible recommendations to adjust reform proposals in light of the results of the analysis.

The review was published in 2016 and is available here.
