+abstract: 'Background: User fees have been shown to constitute a major barrier to
+
+  the utilisation of health-care, particularly in low-income countries
+
+  such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Importantly, such
+
+  barriers can lead to the exclusion of vulnerable individuals from
+
+  health-care. In 2008, a donor-funded primary health-care programme began
+
+  implementing user fee subsidisation in 20 health zones of the DRC. In
+
+  this study, we quantified the short and long-term effects of this policy
+
+  on health-care utilisation.
+
+  Methods: Sixteen health zones were included for analysis. Using
+
+  routinely collected health-care utilisation data before and after policy
+
+  implementation, interrupted time series regression was applied to
+
+  quantify the temporal impact of the user fee policy in the studied
+
+  health zones. Payment of salary supplements to health-care workers and
+
+  provision of free drugs - the other components of the programme - were
+
+  controlled for where possible.
+
+  Results: Fourteen (88\%) health zones showed an immediate positive
+
+  effect in health-care utilisation rates (overall median increase of
+
+  19\%, interquartile range 11 to 43) one month after the policy was
+
+  introduced, and the effect was significant in seven zones (P <0.05).
+
+  This initial effect was sustained or increased at 24 months in five
+
+  health zones but was only significant in one health zone at P <0.05.
+
+  Utilisation reduced over time in the remaining health zones (overall
+
+  median increase of 4\%, interquartile range -10 to 33). The modelled
+
+  mean health-care utilisation rate initially increased significantly from
+
+  43 consultations/1000 population to 51 consultations/1000 population
+
+  during the first month following implementation (P <0.01). However, the
+
+  on-going effect was not significant (P =0.69).
+
+  Conclusions: Our research brings mixed findings on the effectiveness of
+
+  user fee subsidisation as a strategy to increase the utilisation of
+
+  services. Future work should focus on feasibility issues associated with
+
+  the removal or reduction of user fees and how to sustain its effects on
+
+  utilisation in the longer term.'
