This report investigates whether IMF-supported programs restrict health spending in poor countries. It provides empirical evidence on the relationship between IMF fiscal policies and health expenditures, highlighting cases where IMF-imposed austerity measures have led to reduced funding for essential health services. The report also offers an agenda for action, recommending policy adjustments to ensure that IMF programs support, rather than constrain, health investments in low-income nations.
