| description |
Population growth, an unfinished
agenda of communicable diseases and maternal health and
nutrition, and the rapid rise of Non-communicable diseases
are putting increasing strain on not just the Ministry of
Health budget, but also the broader financial position of
the government as a whole. These pressures are ultimately
financially unsustainable, given current and projected
future economic conditions. But many of the health burdens
and costs can be avoided, or at least delayed, with good
primary and secondary prevention. There are practical
options for making health financing in Vanuatu more
effective, efficient, equitable, affordable, and
accountable. Improving efficiency of public expenditure is a
key to achieving this. |
