Convenio sobre la seguridad social (norma mínima), 1952 (núm. 102) - Senegal (Ratificación : 1962)

Part VIII (Maternity benefit), Article 49 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's reply to its previous comments; it has also examined the inter-ministerial orders transmitted with the report, namely Order No. 9174/MFPTE/DTESS and Order No. 9176/MFPTE/DTESS, of 31 July 1976, issuing respectively the list of supplies and services not financed by health insurance institutions, and the model statutes and internal rules of these institutions.

The Committee notes with interest that by virtue of the above statutes and rules, 100 per cent of the hospitalisation and surgical costs in the event of confinement are covered by health insurance institutions, within the limits of tariffs established by these rules, and that with regard to other pre-natal and post-natal care, the Government will take the appropriate measures to give effect to the Convention, which provides that this care shall be provided free of charge. The Committee hopes that the next report will indicate the progress achieved in this respect.
