What we do

We share our skills and expertise in these six areas to help low- and middle-income countries to transition from aid, develop skills to spend smarter and to increase access to quality healthcare so they can achieve Universal Health Coverage.

Tackling healthcare challenges

IDSI works with country partners to design and implement health economic analysis, guidelines, quality standards and pathways to tackle major health challenges, such as maternal health, non-communicable diseases, and antimicrobial resistance.

Generating and using evidence

iDSI generates and uses evidence from international literature and national data to help policymakers and healthcare providers understand trade-offs between different options, and design more effective and efficient health benefits packages.

Smart purchasing for UHC

iDSI helps country partners identify high-value indications for medicines and technologies. This embeds health technology assessment into social insurance programmes and regulatory and pricing mechanisms.
