7. Iraq Health System: Historical Background
• A formal health care system in Iraq began with British occupation
following the end of the First World War in 1918.
• In 1921 the first Directorate of Public health Services was formed
which was upgraded to become a Ministry of Health in September
of the same year.
• In 1978,Primary Health Care system & Department of Preventive
Medicine were declared.
• In 1981, a Public Health Law was enacted. It stated that health is a
right for each citizen and the responsibility of the state to provide
all means to promote health prevent and treat diseases.
• Referral systems, communications, and training to integrate health
centers into a primary care strategy were planned for in the early
1980s
• During the 1970s and 1980s, Iraqi health care and medical
education were said to be the best in the region
8. • After Saddam Hussein came to power, funds
were diverted from the health sector. The
1980–88 Iran–Iraq War killed perhaps half a
million people on both sides, and further
diverted resources and medical staff from
civilian facilities.
• In 1991, Iraq invaded Kuwait, triggering the
first Gulf War. The sanctions that followed had
a major effect and serious damage on Iraq’s
health system and the health status of Iraq.
9. • At the time of the 2003 , the health system was weak, with non-
functioning equipment, inadequate drug supplies, and fragile
infrastructure.
• The destruction and looting of health facilities that followed the
invasion resulted in heavy loss of equipment and pharmaceutical
stocks. Quality of care continued to deteriorate and shortages were
widespread.
• In 2012, millions people in Iraq were in need of assistance; and
millions people are internally displaced. Both refugees and
internally displaced individuals have unsatisfactory access to health
services .
• violence and political instability are continuous till now in most part
of Iraq which resulted in distraction of health system .

11. Now ????
• Iraq's health system is still struggling to recover from years
of war, sanctions, loss of health workers, looting, and
political interference.
• Health facilities and the health workforce are inequitably
distributed to meet the country’s health needs.
• Many skilled health workers have moved to other
countries, and young graduates continue to leave.
• system with primary health care as the basis. Yet the
health-care system continues to be centralised and
focused on hospitals.
• Health-care financing and the role of private health care
are looming issues for the health sector, which are now
only tentatively being addressed.
