INSS - Nicaragua: Microentrepreneur experience at health clinics

Fecha: 03 junio 2009

EA Consultants prepared this video in 2007 during a randomized evaluation of the Nicaraguan Social Security Institute's pilot program to extend social security health insurance to the informal sector.

The participants were surveyed for the evaluation and randomly selected a ticket at the end of each survey. Some "winners" received subsidies for social security health insurance. The video documents some of the experiences of these independent workers (market vendors in urban Managua) when they attended private and public clinics that participated in the insurance program. The evaluation was co-funded by USAID and the Global Development Network and implemented by EA Conusltants and the PSP-One program.
