Health Financing System • Predominantly user fee based (since 2005 retention) • Fee waiver (means tested) • Exemption • Government line item budget to HFs • Donor support • private health insurance < 1% • SHI – under design • CBHI – under pilot
Challenges (1) • User fees • Regressive • Weakness in targeting systems • Limited revenue • Govt budget • Limited • Donor resource • HIV • Still issue with aid effectiveness • Private health insurance • Unaffordable • culture
Challenges (2) • SHI • Limited formal sector (<10%) • HF availability (rural/remote) • Inequity • CBHI • Unaffordable to most • Other barriers • Service availability (rural) • Overall • Effective access (HR, supplies,….) • Quality • HR crisis
Way Forward • CBHI – under pilot with voluntary and mandatory options • Huge subsidy • Networking/risk pooling • SHI – to start with civil servant and family with expansion to all public sector • Explore options for non-public sector • Longer term donor commitments
