dépenses totales de santé, dépenses publiques de santé-mortalité infantile et infanto juvénile, Afrique de l’OuestRésumé
Le but de ce travail, est d’établir un lien entre les dépenses totales de santé par habitant, les dépenses publiques de santé et deux résultats pour la santé à savoir la mortalité infantile et la mortalité des moins de cinq ans. Cette relation est examinée à l'aide des données de 15 pays de l’espace CEDEAO[1] plus la Mauritanie entre 1995 et 2014. Des spécifications en panel ; en MCO robuste et à effets fixes ont été utilisés pour le besoin de la robustesse et la prise en compte de la spécificité pays. Les résultats montrent que les dépenses de santé ont un effet statistiquement significatif sur la mortalité infantile et la mortalité des moins de cinq ans. La magnitude de nos estimations d'élasticité est en accord avec celles rapportées dans la plupart des études. Pour les pays de l’Afrique de l’Ouest, nos résultats impliquent que les dépenses totales de santé (ainsi que la composante publique) contribuent certainement de manière importante à la réduction de la mortalité infantile et de la mortalité des enfants de moins de cinq ans. Ces résultats ont des implications importantes pour la réalisation des Objectifs du Développement Durable (ODD).
