Out of Pocket Expenditure (Oope) in Health Care • OoPE are non-reimbursable fees which a patient or family is responsible for paying directly to health practitioners or suppliers, without intervention of a third party. It often occurs, when publicly funded facilities are unable to provide the required health services and supplies for free or through insurance. • India was ranked as having the 42nd highest average OoPE, with 74.4% of private expenditure being paid as out of pocket. (WHS 2011) • OoPE accounts for an average increase in poverty by as much as 3.6 and 2.9 percent for rural and urban India respectively (Gupta 2009)

Aim of the Study • Assess the nature of out of pocket payments of households in health care and examine its relationship with post 2004 new nation wide health initiatives viz. NRHM, RSBY and many state led programmes. Objectives of Study • Assess the change in out-of-pocket expenditure of households for health care between 2004-10. • Examine the change in OoP expenditure in various social and economic groups. • Analyse the pattern of OoP expenditure in relation to various parameters of new post 2004 national health initiatives viz. NRHM & RSBY
Research questions • Is there any reduction or increase in out-of-pocket expenditure for households on health care post 2004? • Is there any reduction or increase in out-of-pocket expenditure on health care in proportion to total consumption expenditure of households? • Is there any difference in the pattern of OoP across different (a) social and (b) economic categories? • Is there any effect of post 2004 new national health programmes on the pattern of out-of-pocket expenditure on health care?
Sampling strategy • Districts and village in states were selected through PPS technique (Probability Proportional to Size Sampling Technique). • Sample size was fixed to 200 HH per district. This was obtained by selecting 10 villages per district and 20 households per village. • Number of States : 5 • Number of Districts : 14 • Number of Villages: 140 • Number of Households surveyed : 2723
Sample design • Stratified multi-stage design • The first stage units (FSU) were the 2001 census villages. • The ultimate stage units (USU) were households in villages. In case of large villages requiring hamlet-group (hg) formation, one intermediate stage was the selection of two hg’s from each FSU. Formation of Second Stage Strata and allocation of households
Survey tool • Survey tool was adapted from NSSO 60th round. • There were two schedules – • for listing of households and • for in-depth interview of selected households • Field data of the study was collected in the months from March to May 2011
