Taking into account the specific health context in Croatia, as well as its pre-accession status, the World Bank is co-funding the Development of Emergency Medical Services and Investment Planning Project (DEMSIPP). The objectives of this Project are twofold: to support the reform of the Emergency Medical System (EMS) in line with European standards, and to provide capacity building to the Ministry of Health (MoH) in developing and managing strategic plans. The Hospital Master Planning (HMP) Project is intended to support the MoH to achieve these two related objectives of the DEMSIPP. When the HMP Project is completed, it will allow the authorities to have a better understanding of the health system in the country, and to develop a strategy for restructuring the current health care provider network towards a system that will better respond to the needs of the population of Croatia.
