Patient-centred innovation to ensure access to diabetes care in Cambodia: the case of MoPoTsyo
This case study analyses a peer educator diabetes programme, MoPoTsyo, from a health system’s perspective
Abstract
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases puts a high burden on the health care systems of Low and Middle Income Countries which are often not adapted to provide the care needed. Peer support programmes are promoted to address health system constraints. This case study analyses a peer educator diabetes programme in Cambodia, MoPoTsyo, from a health system’s perspective. Which strategies were used and how did these strategies change? How is the programme perceived?
This research is supported by the Department for International Development’s Future Health Systems programme which is led by Johns Hopkins University
