The targeted free healthcare program is now a reality for children aged 0 to 5 suffering from malaria and for pregnant women.<\/p>\n

Salimata Coulibaly takes her 3-and-a-half-year-old daughter, who is ill, to the urban health center of Dimb\u00e9kaha, in the Katiola district. The child has malaria. From diagnosis to medication, Salimata didn’t spend a single franc.<\/strong>
\u00ab\u00a0The doctors did blood tests, gave me malaria medication, and even an insecticide-treated mosquito net,\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> she says.<\/p>\n

In the country\u2019s public hospitals, the targeted free healthcare program<\/strong> is a reality for children aged 0 to 5 suffering from malaria and for pregnant women.
\u00ab\u00a0My wife gave birth at this health center free of charge. The free care is a real relief for us,\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> says Herv\u00e9 Coulibaly.<\/p>\n

The targeted free healthcare program aims to provide specific medical procedures, services, and care for pregnant women<\/strong>\u2014including prenatal and postnatal consultations, childbirth and related complications\u2014as well as for children aged 0 to 5<\/strong> suffering from malaria, anemia, acute respiratory infections, and diarrheal diseases.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the Government\u2019s Social Program (PSGouv2)<\/strong>, from 2023 to June 2024, 507,949 malaria cases<\/strong> were treated free of charge among pregnant women, and 4,096,400 malaria cases<\/strong> were treated in children aged 0 to 5 across the entire national territory.<\/p>\n
