RESUMO

Partnerships, particularly, South-South and Triangular Cooperation play an important role in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Partnership Project for Global Health and Universal Health Coverage (UHC) between Japan and Thailand (the Project) was launched in 2016 as a four-year flagship project for Triangular Cooperation and continued to the second phase in 2020. Participating countries include Asian and African countries who are striving to drive global health and to move towards UHC. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has made coordination of partnerships more difficult. The Project needed to find a "new normal" approach to conduct our collaborative work. Struggling with public health and social measures for COVID-19 has made us more resilient and has increased opportunities to collaborate more closely. In the past year and a half, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Project successfully conducted a number of online activities between Thailand and Japan and with other countries on global health and UHC. Our "new normal" approach led continuing dialogue of networking both at the project implementation and policy levels, focusing on desk-based activities regarding the targets and the objectives of the project and creating a golden opportunity for pursuing a timely second phase. Our lessons learned include as follows: i) Closer prior consultation is required to hold satisfactory online meetings; ii) Effective "new normal" approaches include emphasizing practical and interactive discussions on each countrys priority issues and expanding target participants; iii) Commitment, trust, teamwork, and sharing common goals can enhance and sustain partnerships, especially amid the pandemic.

RESUMO

Progressive realization of universal health coverage (UHC) requires health systems capacity to provide quality service and financial risk protection which supports access to services without financial hardship. Government health spending in low-income countries (LICs) has been low and heavily relied on external donor resources and out-of-pocket payment. This has resulted in high prevalence of catastrophic health spending or foregone care by those who cannot afford. Under fiscal constraints posed by pandemic, reforms in LICs should focus on efficiency through health resource waste reduction. Targeting the poor even with low level of health spending can make a significant health gain. Investment in primary healthcare and health workforce is the foundation for realizing UHC which cannot be postponed. Innovative tax on health hazardous products, conditional debt relief can increase fiscal space for health; while international collaboration to accelerate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine coverage can bring LICs out of acute phase of pandemic.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Health systems are complex. Policies targeted at health system development may be informed by health policy and systems research (HPSR). This study assesses HPSR capacity to generate evidence and inform policy in Ethiopia and Ghana. METHODS: We used a mixed-methods approach including a self-administered survey at selected HPSR institutes and in-depth interviews of policy makers. RESULTS: Both countries have limited capacity to generate HPSR evidence, especially in terms of mobilizing adequate funding and retaining a critical number of competent researchers who understand complex policy processes, have the skills to influence policy, and know policy makers' demands for evidence. Common challenges are limited government research funding, rigidity in executing the research budget, and reliance on donor funding that might not respond to national health priorities. There are no large research programs in either country. The annual number of HPSR projects per research institute in Ethiopia (10 projects) was higher than in Ghana (2.5 projects), Ethiopia has a significantly smaller annual budget for health research. Policy makers in the 2 countries increasingly recognize the importance of evidence-informed policy making, but various challenges remain in building effective interactions with HPSR institutes. CONCLUSION: We propose 3 synergistic recommendations to strengthen HPSR capacity in Ethiopia and Ghana. First, strengthen researchers' capacity and enhance their opportunities to know policy actors; engage with the policy community; and identify and work with policy entrepreneurs, who have attributes, skills, and strategies to achieve a successful policy. Second, deliver policy-relevant research findings in a timely way and embed research into key health programs to guide effective implementation. Third, mobilize local and international funding to strengthen HPSR capacities as well as address challenges with recruiting and retaining a critical number of talented researchers. These recommendations may be applied to other low- and middle-income countries to strengthen HPSR capacities.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In response to an increased health burden from non-communicable diseases (NCDs), primary health care (PHC) is effective platform to support NCDs prevention and control. This study aims to assess Thailand's PHC capacity in providing NCDs services, identify enabling factors and challenges and provide policy recommendations for improvement. METHODS: This cross-sectional mixed-method study was conducted between October 2019 and May 2020. Two provinces, one rich and one poor, were randomly selected and then a city and rural district from each province were randomly selected. From these 4 sites in the 2 provinces, all 56 PHC centres responded to a self-administrative questionnaire survey on their capacities and practices related to NCDs. A total of 79 participants from Provincial and District Health Offices, provincial and district hospitals, and PHC centres who are involved with NCDs participated in focus group discussions or in-depth interviews. RESULTS: Strong health infrastructure, competent staff (however not with increased workload), essential medicines and secured budget boost PHC capacity to address NCDs prevention, control, case management, referral and rehabilitation. Community engagement through village health volunteers improves NCDs awareness, supports enrolment in screening and raises adherence to interventions. Village health volunteers, the crucial link between the health system and the community, are key in supporting health promotion and NCDs prevention and control. Collaboration between provincial and district hospitals in providing resources and technical support enhance the capacity of PHC centres to provide NCDs services. However, inconsistent national policy directions and uncertainty related to key performance indicators hamper progress in NCDs management at the operational level. The dynamic of urbanization and socialization, especially living in obesogenic environments, is one of the greatest challenges for dealing with NCDs. CONCLUSION: PHC centres play a vital role in NCDs prevention and control. Adequate human and financial resources and policy guidance are required to improve PHC performance in managing NCDs. Implementing best buy measures at national level provides synergies for NCDS control at PHC level.

RESUMO

We examine the potential and limitations of primary health care in contributing to the achievement of the health-related sustainable development goals (SDGs), and recommend policies to enable a functioning primary health-care system. Governments have recently reaffirmed their commitment to the SDGs through the 2018 Declaration of Astana, which redefines the three functions of primary health care as: service provision, multisectoral actions and the empowerment of citizens. In other words, the health-related SDGs cannot be achieved by the provision of health-care services alone. Some health issues are related to environment, necessitating joint efforts between local, national and international partners; other issues require public awareness (health literacy) of preventable illnesses. However, the provision of primary health care, and hence achievement of the SDGs, is hampered by several issues. First, inadequate government spending on health is exacerbated by the small proportions allocated to primary health care. Second, the shortage and maldistribution of the health workforce, and chronic absenteeism in some countries, has led to a situation in which staffing levels are inversely related to poverty and need. Third, the health workforce is not trained in multisectoral actions, and already experiences workloads of an overwhelming nature. Finally, health illiteracy is common among the population, even in developed countries. We recommend that governments increase spending on health and primary health care, implement interventions to retain the rural health workforce, and update the pre-service training curricula of personnel to include skills in multisectoral collaboration and enhanced community engagement.


Dans le présent document, nous étudions le potentiel et les limites des soins de santé primaires en matière de réalisation des objectifs de développement durable (ODD) liés à la santé. Nous formulons également des recommandations politiques pour l'instauration d'un système de soins de santé primaires efficace. Les gouvernements ont récemment réaffirmé leur engagement envers les ODD en 2018 par le biais de la Déclaration d'Astana, qui redéfinit les trois fonctions des soins de santé primaires comme suit: fourniture de services, actions multidisciplinaires et implication des citoyens. En d'autres termes, les ODD liés à la santé ne peuvent être atteints uniquement en proposant des services médicaux. Certains problèmes de santé sont inhérents à l'environnement et requièrent les efforts conjoints des partenaires locaux, nationaux et internationaux; d'autres nécessitent de sensibiliser le public (médecine préventive) aux maladies évitables. Cependant, la fourniture de soins de santé primaires, et par conséquent la réalisation des ODD, rencontre de nombreux obstacles. Tout d'abord, les dépenses inadéquates des gouvernements en matière de santé sont aggravées par le faible pourcentage octroyé aux soins de santé primaires. Ensuite, la pénurie et les inégalités de répartition des professionnels de la santé ainsi que l'absentéisme chronique dans certains pays ont débouché sur une situation où le niveau des effectifs est inversement proportionnel au niveau de pauvreté et aux besoins. Par ailleurs, le personnel soignant n'est pas formé aux actions multidisciplinaires et subit déjà une charge de travail écrasante. Et enfin, la méconnaissance des bases sanitaires est fréquente au sein de la population, même dans les pays développés. Nous conseillons aux gouvernements d'accroître leurs dépenses en soins de santé et soins de santé primaires, d'intervenir pour encourager les soignants à rester dans les régions rurales, et de mettre à jour les programmes de formation initiale du personnel pour y inclure des compétences en collaboration multidisciplinaire et en amélioration de l'engagement communautaire.


Se analizan las posibilidades y las limitaciones de la atención primaria de salud para contribuir al logro de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible (los ODS) relacionados con la salud, y se recomiendan políticas que permitan el funcionamiento del sistema de atención primaria de salud. Recientemente, los gobiernos reiteraron su compromiso con los ODS en la Declaración de Astaná de 2018, en la que se redefinen las tres funciones de la atención primaria de salud, a saber: la prestación de servicios, las medidas multisectoriales y una mayor participación de los ciudadanos. Es decir, los ODS relacionados con la salud no se pueden cumplir tan solo con la prestación de servicios de atención de la salud. Algunos temas de salud están relacionados con el medio ambiente, lo que requiere esfuerzos conjuntos entre los asociados locales, nacionales e internacionales; otros temas requieren la concienciación del público (conocimientos sobre la salud) acerca de las enfermedades que se pueden evitar. Sin embargo, la prestación de atención primaria de salud, y por consiguiente el logro de los ODS, presenta diversas dificultades. En primer lugar, el gasto público inadecuado en salud empeora debido a los porcentajes tan reducidos que se asignan a la atención primaria de salud. En segundo lugar, la escasez y la mala distribución del personal sanitario, así como el absentismo crónico en algunos países, han creado una situación en la que los niveles de personal están relacionados de manera inversa con la pobreza y la necesidad. En tercer lugar, el personal sanitario no está capacitado para emprender medidas multisectoriales, además de que ya tiene una carga de trabajo abrumadora. Por último, la falta de conocimientos sobre salud es común entre la población, incluso en los países desarrollados. Se recomienda a los gobiernos que aumenten el gasto en salud y en atención primaria de la salud, que implementen intervenciones para fidelizar al personal sanitario de las zonas rurales y que actualicen los programas de capacitación del personal previa a la prestación de servicios para integrar las habilidades en la colaboración multisectorial y el aumento de la participación de la comunidad.

RESUMO

Benefit package is crucial for implementing universal health coverage (UHC). This editorial analyses how the benefit package of the Thai Universal Coverage Scheme (UC Scheme) evolved from an implicit comprehensive package which covered all conditions and interventions (with a few exceptions), to additional explicit positive lists. In 2002 when the Thai UC Scheme was launched; the comprehensive benefit package, including medicines in the national essential list of medicines, formerly offered by the previous schemes were pragmatically adopted. Later, when capacities of producing evidence on health technology assessment (HTA) increased, rigorous assessment of cost effectiveness is mandatorily required for inclusion of new interventions into the Thai UC Scheme benefit package. This contributed to evidence-informed policy decisions. To prevent emptied promises, whichever policy choices are made about the benefit package, either using a negative or a positive list, developing country governments need to make quality health services available and accessible by the entire population. Political decision on benefit package should be informed by evidence on cost effectiveness, equity dimension and health system capacity to deliver equitable services. Low- and middle-income countries need to strengthen HTA capacity to generate evidence and inform policies.

RESUMO

Sanderson et al's realist review of strategic purchasing identifies insights from two strands of theory: the economics of organisation and inter-organisational relationships. Our findings from a programme of research conducted by the RESYST (Resilient and Responsive Health Systems) consortium in seven countries echo these results, and add to them the crucial area of organisational capacity to implement complex reforms. We identify key areas for policy development. These are the need for: (1) a policy design with clearly delineated responsibilities; (2) a task network of organisations to engage in the broad set of functions needed; (3) more effective means of engaging with populations; (4) a range of technical and management capacities; and (5) an awareness of the multiple agency relationships that are created by the broader financing environment and the provider incentives generated by multiple financing flows.

RESUMO

Strategic purchasing is an essential health financing function. This paper compares the strategic purchasing practices of Thailand's two tax-financed health insurance schemes, the Universal Coverage Scheme (UCS) and the Civil Servant Medical Benefit Scheme (CSMBS), and identifies factors contributing to successful universal health coverage outcomes by analysing the relationships between the purchaser and government, providers and members. The study uses a cross-sectional mixed-methods design, including document review and interviews with 56 key informants. The Comptroller General Department (CGD) of Ministry of Finance manages CSMBS as one among civil servant welfare programmes. Their purchasing is passive. Fee for service payment for outpatient care has resulted in rapid cost escalation and overspending of their annual budget. In contrast, National Health Security Office (NHSO) manages purchasing for UCS, which undertakes a range of strategic purchasing actions, including applying closed ended provider payment, promoting primary healthcare's gate keeping functions, exercising collective purchasing power and engaging views of members in decision making process. This difference in purchasing arrangements resulted in expenditure per CSMBS member being 4 times higher than UCS in 2014. The governance of the purchaser organization, the design of the purchasing arrangements including incentives and use of information, and the institutional capacities to implement purchasing functions are essential for effective strategic purchasing which can improve health system efficiency as a whole.

RESUMO

Thailand's health development since the 1970s has been focused on investment in the health delivery infrastructure at the district level and below and on training the health workforce. Deliberate policies increased domestic training capacities for all cadres of health personnel and distributed them to rural and underserved areas. Since 1975, targeted insurance schemes for different population groups have improved financial access to health care until universal health coverage was implemented in 2002. Despite its low gross national income per capita in Thailand, a bold decision was made to use general taxation to finance the Universal Health Coverage Scheme without relying on contributions from members. Empirical evidence shows substantial reduction in levels of out-of-pocket payments, the incidence of catastrophic health spending, and in medical impoverishment. The scheme has also greatly reduced provincial gaps in child mortality. Certain interventions such as antiretroviral therapy and renal replacement therapy have saved the lives of adults. Well designed strategic purchasing contributed to efficiency, cost containment, and equity. Remaining challenges include preparing for an ageing society, primary prevention of non-communicable diseases, law enforcement to prevent road traffic mortality, and effective coverage of diabetes and tuberculosis control.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Preventing adolescent pregnancy and childbirth is one of the targets of Sustainable Development Goals. Measuring the burden pregnancy and childbirth places on adolescents is required to convince society and decision makers that this is an important goal. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to estimate (1) the years of healthy life lost due to adolescent pregnancy and childbirth in terms of disability adjusted life years (DALYs), (2) the contribution of adolescent pregnancy and childbirth to the total DALYs lost from all reproductive ages, and (3) the magnitude of the burden due to five main direct obstetric causes and sequelae in adolescent mothers in Thailand in 2014. METHODS: Data were retrieved from a national in-patient registered database and a vital registration database. Health consequences of five main direct obstetric causes were extracted from the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) 2000 study. The DALYs were calculated by the combination of Years of Life Lost (YLL) due to premature death and Years Lived with Disability (YLD) due to adverse pregnancy and childbirth in adolescent mothers. RESULTS: There were a total of 2599 years of DALYs lost from the consequences of adolescent pregnancy and childbirth, and unsafe abortion resulted in the highest burden. Mortality was the primary driver for the total DALYs lost with 1704 years, and maternal hemorrhage dominated in the total YLL. Unsafe abortion contributed the highest burden to nonfatal morbidity. Obstructed labor commonly occurred in adolescent pregnancies. CONCLUSION: Among the DALYs lost due to pregnancy and childbirth for all reproductive aged women, 15.4% were attributed to adolescents. The five main obstetric causes of mortality and morbidity are all preventable conditions. Increased efforts from all stakeholders are essential to implement appropriate interventions to minimize adverse health outcomes in adolescent mothers.

RESUMO

In responses to Norheim's editorial, this commentary offers reflections from Thailand, how the five unacceptable trade-offs were applied to the universal health coverage (UHC) reforms between 1975 and 2002 when the whole 64 million people were covered by one of the three public health insurance systems. This commentary aims to generate global discussions on how best UHC can be gradually achieved. Not only the proposed five discrete trade-offs within each dimension, there are also trade-offs between the three dimensions of UHC such as population coverage, service coverage and cost coverage. Findings from Thai UHC show that equity is applied for the population coverage extension, when the low income households and the informal sector were the priority population groups for coverage extension by different prepayment schemes in 1975 and 1984, respectively. With an exception of public sector employees who were historically covered as part of fringe benefits were covered well before the poor. The private sector employees were covered last in 1990. Historically, Thailand applied a comprehensive benefit package where a few items are excluded using the negative list; until there was improved capacities on technology assessment that cost-effectiveness are used for the inclusion of new interventions into the benefit package. Not only cost-effectiveness, but long term budget impact, equity and ethical considerations are taken into account. Cost coverage is mostly determined by the fiscal capacities. Close ended budget with mix of provider payment methods are used as a tool for trade-off service coverage and financial risk protection. Introducing copayment in the context of fee-for-service can be harmful to beneficiaries due to supplier induced demands, inefficiency and unpredictable out of pocket payment by households. UHC achieves favorable outcomes as it was implemented when there was a full geographical coverage of primary healthcare coverage in all districts and sub-districts after three decade of health infrastructure investment and health workforce development since 1980s. The legacy of targeting population group by different prepayment mechanisms, leading to fragmentation, discrepancies and inequity across schemes, can be rectified by harmonization at the early phase when these schemes were introduced. Robust public accountability and participation mechanisms are recommended when deciding the UHC strategy.

RESUMO

Five years after the release of its Green Paper on National Health Insurance (NHI),years after the institution of NHI pilot sites and following the recent release of the White Pa 4 per on NHI, South Africa (SA) needs to move beyond the phase 1 plans of policy making and healthening activities to phase 2 - putting into place the legal and institutional frameth system strengworks and systems for implementation of its universal health coverage (UHC) system. In doing so, SA can draw on considerable practical lessons from other countries' reforms in managing UHC with favourable equity outcomes over the past decade. We outline some potentially significant lessons from the Thai health financing system for SA.

RESUMO

Universal health coverage (UHC) is a key policy issue in countries of the World Health Organization (WHO) South-East Asia Region. However, despite projections of significant increases in burden, there is little protection against the financial risks associated with noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including diabetes. Thailand achieved UHC of all 67 million of the population in 2002, under three public health insurance schemes. The country therefore provides a case-study on diabetes prevention and care in the context of UHC. Although the budget for the Thai Universal Coverage (UC) scheme, which covers nearly 80% of the population, increased significantly during 2003-2013, the proportion allocated to clinical prevention and health promotion declined from 15% to 11%. The financial case for investment in diabetes prevention is made, particularly with respect to a focus on primary care and the use of community volunteers. The UC scheme can expand to nearly 100% population coverage, with a comprehensive benefit package and financial risk protection. Although the rates of complications and fatalities in patients with diabetes have improved over the last few years, achievement of well-controlled fasting blood glucose for all patients is still the main challenge for further improvement. It is recommended that, in order to improve coverage of diabetes care and prevention, it is essential for countries in the WHO South-East Asia Region to include major NCD services, in particular primary prevention, in their UHC strategies. Since a resilient health system is key to UHC delivery, strengthening of the health workforce and infrastructure should be part of any action plan to prevent and control diabetes.

RESUMO

In 1985, the Rockefeller Foundation published Good health at low cost to discuss why some countries or regions achieve better health and social outcomes than do others at a similar level of income and to show the role of political will and socially progressive policies. 25 years on, the Good Health at Low Cost project revisited these places but looked anew at Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Kyrgyzstan, Thailand, and the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, which have all either achieved substantial improvements in health or access to services or implemented innovative health policies relative to their neighbours. A series of comparative case studies (2009-11) looked at how and why each region accomplished these changes. Attributes of success included good governance and political commitment, effective bureaucracies that preserve institutional memory and can learn from experience, and the ability to innovate and adapt to resource limitations. Furthermore, the capacity to respond to population needs and build resilience into health systems in the face of political unrest, economic crises, and natural disasters was important. Transport infrastructure, female empowerment, and education also played a part. Health systems are complex and no simple recipe exists for success. Yet in the countries and regions studied, progress has been assisted by institutional stability, with continuity of reforms despite political and economic turmoil, learning lessons from experience, seizing windows of opportunity, and ensuring sensitivity to context. These experiences show that improvements in health can still be achieved in countries with relatively few resources, though strategic investment is necessary to address new challenges such as complex chronic diseases and growing population expectations.
