The International Journal of Health Services recently (Volume 39, No. 4, 2009) published a series of articles by health care academics that made several claims regarding the design and impact of International Monetary Fund--supported programs, especially regarding effects on health spending and health outcomes. The Deputy Director of the IMF's Fiscal Affairs Department identifies and responds to six principal criticisms from these articles, to set the public record straight on what Fund policies actually are rather than what they are perceived to be.
《国际卫生服务杂志》最近（2009 年第 39 卷第 4 期）发表了一系列医疗保健学者的文章，对国际货币基金组织（IMF）支持的项目的设计和影响提出了一些主张，特别是对卫生支出和卫生结果的影响。国际货币基金组织财政事务部副主任对这些文章中的六个主要批评意见进行了甄别和回应，以澄清基金政策的实际情况，而不是人们认为的情况。
