The objective of the Federal University Hospitals (FUH) Modernization Project for Brazil is to strengthen the performance of the Federal University Hospitals Program (REHUF) Program, by: (i) improving hospital governance and management by results; (ii) modernizing of the Borrower's hospital technology; and (iii) improving hospital care, research and education processes. There are two components to the project, the first component being modernization of the FUH. This component will support the implementation of the Eligible Expenditures Program (EEP) under the REHUF program. This component is structured as a Sector Wide Approach (SWAp) to co-finance the Ministry of Education (MEC) REHUF Program, disburse against results and use the country financial and fiduciary systems to the extent possible. Finally, the second component is the REHUF program institutional strengthening. This component will support the strengthening of the governance, management and innovation capacity of the FUH through the provision of technical assistance, training and equipment, in the areas of governance and management, infrastructure and technology, health care, education and research, as well as transparency and accountability; and (b) financing of FUH subprojects in line with REHUF program priorities to improve managerial, clinical, teaching, training, and research processes.
