Health Economics and Financing

Description

Uganda has a draft National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) Bill, 2019 that provides for the establishment of a NHIS. The proposed health insurance scheme will pool resources, where the rich will subsidize the treatment of the poor and the healthy will subsidize the treatment of the sick, young and elderly. However, there is still a lack of information on the feasibility of integrating the Community Based Health Insurance Schemes (CBHIS). Thus, this study aimed to determine whether and how the existing community-based Health Financing can be integrated into the proposed NHIS
