In its most recent study of the health status of the population, the Ministry of Health of Morocco notes an epidemiologic transition between infectious and chronic diseases. The prevalence of contagious diseases and malnutrition is progressively declining, while non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer and chronic respiratory diseases are on the rise. These changes have resulted in significant increases in national health expenditure and high social costs.
