Description | ||||||
Assessing how well a health system is to determine what is achieved with respect to the objectives of good health. Good health brings prosperity, and prosperity brings improvements in health; or conversely poor health may create and perpetuate poverty and poverty may lead to poor health. The fundamental goals of good health mean responsivene,cs to people's expectations andfairness means to finance the health system. Achieving these goals depends on the effectiveness of four main functions: service provision, resource generation, financing, and stewardship. Health systems are not just concemed with improving people's health but with protecting them against the financial costs of illness. The challenge is to reduce the regressive burden of out-of-pocket payment for health by expanding prepayment schemes, and reduce the catastrophic health care expenditures. Families that spend 50oh or more of their non-food expenditure on health are likely to be impoverished as a result. In sum, the way health care is financed is perfectly fair if the ratio of total health contribution to total non-food spending is identical for all households, independently of their income, their health status or their use of the health system.
