Description

El Houcine Akhnif, Awad Mataria, Abdelouahab Belmadani, and Maryam Bigdeli measure what Morocco's government quietly spends on health care for migrants and refugees, in a research paper from 2024. Care at public sites is free, so the cost hides inside facility budgets. Health reforms now shift payment to insurers, making the sum matter.

The team costed every service at five primary centers and three hospitals in two regions. Unit costs were combined with service volumes to total the public outlay. Costs were also split by disease to prepare future contracts. The study gives planners a database for fair payment as coverage expands.
