The World Bank will contribute US$30 million loan to a Dominican government health care project. The US$42 million program will decentralize health care, making medical services more accessible to indigent Dominicans, with a focus on women and children. Dr. Alberto Fiallo Billini, coordinator of the Executive Commission for the Reform of the Health Sector, said that the World Bank loan is a transcendental step ahead in the reform of the Dominican health sector.
