Adapting policies & programmes for resilient, equitable & sustained progress towards UHC – emphasizing poor & left-behind populations in Brazil, India, Indonesia & South Africa.
Our research centres around the question:
How can countries’ health financing and resource allocation strategies be strengthened to accelerate the achievement of UHC objectives, with a focus on left-behind groups?
Health financing is a key means to achieving UHC, and it is more than just raising money for health services. It involves deciding how to spend money in the health system, setting the right financial incentives for healthcare providers, and ensuring access to healthcare for all. While crucial to achieving UHC, health financing is often insufficient in LMICs. Sometimes economic resources are not appropriately prioritized for health financing, and sometimes decision makers have limited expertise.
