Resumen
Un programa de transferencia de efectivo en Malawi redujo con éxito el abandono del tratamiento contra el cáncer en los niños. Cuatro años después de la financiación inicial, el programa continuó con un impacto sostenido, lo que demuestra el potencial del apoyo financiero en entornos de bajos recursos.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Salud global
- Economía de la salud
- Oncología pediátrica
Sus antecedentes:
- La sostenibilidad es crucial para el impacto a largo plazo de las intervenciones sanitarias.
- Un programa de transferencia de efectivo de 2019 en Malawi redujo significativamente el abandono del tratamiento contra el cáncer en los niños.
- El programa proporcionó reembolso de transporte, asesoramiento y seguimiento de pacientes para los cuidadores.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Evaluar la sostenibilidad de un programa de transferencia de efectivo para pacientes pediátricos con cáncer en Malawi durante cuatro años.
- Evaluar la continuación de la intervención y su impacto en las tasas de abandono del tratamiento después de la financiación externa.
- Identificar los facilitadores y las barreras para la sostenibilidad a largo plazo del programa.
Principales métodos:
- Estudio de métodos mixtos para evaluar el sostenimiento y la sostenibilidad de las intervenciones a partir de 2022-2024.
- Evaluación de las tasas de continuación de las transferencias de efectivo y abandono del tratamiento en niños (< 16 años) con cáncer.
- Entrevistas exploratorias con las partes interesadas para identificar los facilitadores percibidos y las barreras a la sostenibilidad.
Principales resultados:
- El programa continuó con modificaciones (por ejemplo, reembolso de transporte limitado) y aseguró nuevos fondos de donantes.
- Reducción sostenida de las tasas de abandono del tratamiento: 9% (2022), 10% (2023) y 3% (2024).
- Los facilitadores incluyeron una alta aceptabilidad, apropiación local, efectividad demostrada y apoyo alternativo de los donantes; las barreras incluyeron limitaciones de recursos y prioridades de salud en competencia.
Conclusiones:
- La intervención de transferencia de efectivo se mantuvo activa cuatro años después de la financiación inicial, manteniendo una reducción del abandono del tratamiento.
- Los programas de apoyo financiero pueden lograr un impacto sostenido en entornos de bajos recursos.
- Se necesitan más investigaciones para identificar los determinantes clave de la sostenibilidad para la ampliación futura.
