Professor Di McIntyre

Di McIntyre is the South African Research Chair in ‘Health and Wealth’ and a Professor in the School of Public Health and Family Medicine at the University of Cape Town, where she has worked since 1988. She founded the Health Economics Unit (HEU) in 1990 and was its Director for 13 years. She has completed Bachelor of Commerce, Honours and Masters degrees in Economics at the University of Cape Town. She has also completed a PhD by dissertation, entitled “Health care financing and expenditure in South Africa: Towards equity and efficiency in policy making”.

In addition to general technical support activities in South Africa and other African countries, she has served on a number of policy committees. These include serving on the Health Care Finance Advisory Committee to the Department of Health of the Government of National Unity, the Minister of Health’s Committee of Inquiry into a National Health Insurance for South Africa and the Medical Schemes Council. She also chaired the Minister of Health’s Medicine Pricing Committee from its establishment in 2003 until 2008. She currently serves on the Ministerial Advisory Committee on National Health Insurance.

Research interests: Health care financing, purchasing of health services, equity in the health sector, access to and utilisation of health services, geographic allocation of health care resources, and public/private sector mix issues.

Current research projects: Current involvement in HEU research projects includes:

• Evaluation of health care financing to promote universal coverage.  This includes evaluation of the relative progressivity of alternative health care financing mechanisms (currently providing support to such analyses in Kenya, Uganda and Zambia).  She is co-principal investigator of a cross-country (South Africa and Tanzania) comparative research project (UNITAS) that is monitoring and evaluating the implementation of health care financing reforms aimed at making progress to universal coverage.  She is also a co-theme leader on financing in the RESYST project, which is focusing on enhancing sustainable domestic financing for health care and purchasing to enhance the quality of care in the public and private health sectors.
• Equity issues within the health sector, especially in terms of the distribution of health and health care resources between different socio-economic groups. This includes identifying the key determinants of health and health system inequity. Household level economic and social consequences of illness, and strategies for coping with these consequences, is another area of equity related research. Much of this work is based on the analysis of recent household survey databases. Another component of this equity work is the evaluation of the impact of health sector reform initiatives on poverty and inequality.
• Access to and utilisation of health services. This research interest focuses on exploring equity of health care utilisation patterns and the distribution of the benefit of health care use relative to the need for health care across socio-economic groups. It also considers methods for measuring and analysing three core dimensions of access: availability, affordability and acceptability of health services.
• Evaluation of the geographic allocation of health care resources. This focuses on the analysis of current disparities in resource availability and mechanisms for achieving greater equity in the distribution of resources, including the investigation of alternative resource allocation formulae. It also focuses on mechanisms for promoting equitable health care resource allocation within a fiscal federal context and within the context of alternative fund pooling and purchasing arrangements.

Current teaching: Her training activities include participation in HEU postgraduate courses (Postgraduate Diploma, Masters and PhD programs).  She also co-ordinates the School of Public Health and Family Medicine’s doctoral program.
