Health financing
Health financing is one of the better-researched areas of health policy and systems research, providing greater scope for knowledge syntheses and dissemination.
Potential angles the Alliance may take in investigating this theme include:
- Scaling up universal coverage/ financial protection, including community-based health insurance, social health insurance, tax financing and hybrid schemes;
- Fiscal space, promoting predictable health financing; and
- Strategies to improve health system efficiency.
