Statistics
MDG 4 on Universal Healthcare
• Affordable access to quality (meets patient needs) treatment and care for all, or to 80 per cent where such access was less than half in 2010.
• Continue to reduce the reach of TB, malaria and HIV/AIDS, and contain the spread of new drug resistant strains.
• Halt the rise in non- communicable diseases.
• Universal reproductive health services including access to birth control and to a qualified attendant at birth.
• Cut maternal mortality rate by at least ¾.
• Reduce the under five mortality rate by at least ⅔
Health Sector Reform• •
• Ensuring equitable allocation of government resources to reduce disparities in health status
• Increasing the cost effectiveness and the cost efficiency of resource allocation and use
• Continuing to manage population growth
• Enhancing the regulatory role of the government in all aspects of health care provision
• Creating an enabling environment for increased private sector and community involvement in health service provision and finance
• Increasing and diversifying per capita financial flows to the health sector
Michael Porter says
‘In health care, the overarching goal for providers, as well as for every other stakeholder, must be improving value for patients, where value is defined as the health outcomes achieved that matter to patients relative to the cost of achieving those outcomes. Improving value requires either improving one or more outcomes without raising costs or lowering costs without compromising outcomes, or both. Failure to improve value means, well, failure.’
Conclusion
Increased incomes improve health out comes due to healthy life styles and affording health insurance
Cost sharing though desirable requires domestic sacrifices and calls for greater management of the revenues
Restructure health provision and allow for social insurance for the poor
Requisite political backing (champion)
