Facilitate PPP in local production of Right Priced quality pharmaceutical products Single Maximise Tanzanian Medicinal plants research and protect Intellectual property.

16.

18. BRN is top priority in implementation Scale up BRN Countrywide after 2018

19. Fiscal Space for HSSP IV • Resources for the HSSP IV – Costs • In five years TZS 11,300 billion (11.3 Trillion) • In 2015-16 TZS 2,087 billion (2 trillion) available Vs 4,031b (4tr) needed per year. • Increase to 2,503 billion (2.5 trillion) in 2019-20 Commodities represent 78%; HIV about 30 to 33% • Financing gap from fiscal space analysis • Ambitious scenario (SNHI and Innovative fin) the financing gap will be TZS 515 billion (0.5 Trillion) in 2016/2017 growing to TZS 1,525 billion (1.5 Trillion) in 2019/2020 • Without SNHI and Innovative financing the gap is TZS 1,410 billion (1.4 Tr)in 2016/2017 and grow to TZS 2,453 billion (2.4 Tr) by 2019/2020

20. Scenario 2: Funding gap Close the funding gap!

21. Summary • With innovative financing and continued growth in existing health insurance schemes, the Country can access 3─3.5 trillion TZS per year* over 2015/16 to 2020/21 • Without innovative financing, the range is 2─2.5 trillion TZS p.a.* • With innovative sources, health as a % of the GOT budget (excluding CFS) would average 15% from 2016/17 • Without innovative financing, given declines in some on-budget sources and slow growth in domestic sources, the same average figure would be 10%

22. Implications With Scenario 2 we alleviate the financing gap BUT still remain with a gap in relation to total HSSP IV cost This has implication for level of ambition of the sector program targets Argument for fast tracking the HFS is stronger Emphasis on innovative cost cutting, synergies and value for money from coordination,Alignment & Harmonisation, integration Effective use of resources (fiscal decentralization, accountability, cost-effective interventions, resource mapping)
