Specialist groups have often advised health ministers and other
decision makers in developing countries on the use of social health
insurance (SHI) as a way of mobilizing revenue for health,
reforming health sector performance, and providing universal
coverage. This book reviews the specific design and implementation
challenges facing SHI in low- and middle-income countries and
presents case studies on Ghana, Kenya, Philippines, Colombia, and
Thailand.
This book provides a multi-disciplinary framework for developing
and analysing health sector reforms, based on the authors'
extensive international experience. It offers practical guidance,
and stresses the need to take account of each country's economic,
administrative, and political circumstances. The authors explain
how to design effective government interventions in five areas -
financing, payment, organization, regulation, and behaviour - to
improve the performance and equity of health systems around the
world.
THE FOUNDATIONAL WORK IN HEALTH REFORM, CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF
INFLUENCE Featuring a new introduction by the authors Getting
Health Reform Right is the world's leading text for understanding
and managing health systems and their reform. Its simple,
analytical model allows readers to design their own approach to
improve health-system performance based on three outcomes of
greatest importance (health status, citizen satisfaction, and
financial risk protection), with step-by-step instructions for
defining problems, diagnosing causes, devising solutions, and
implementing changes. "Rapidly assumed the status of a classic and
proved an inspiration to a generation of students and policymakers.
It is as relevant today as when it was first published." -Peter C.
Smith, Emeritus Professor of Health Policy, Imperial College
Business School, London "Has become the mainstay of health-system
reform conversations among policymakers in India. Its unique and
accessible framing, which goes beyond abstract ideas, has resonated
strongly in debates over how to improve health system performance."
