| description |
As Lao PDR prepares to graduate from
Least Developed Country (LDC) status by 2020 to become an
upper-middle-income country by 2030, it also expects to face
declining funding from external sources and the need to
increase domestic financing for health. This report aims to
provide a snapshot of the current health financing system of
Lao PDR and to identify critical constraints and
opportunities facing the health care system as the country
undergoes transitions in demographics, epidemiology and
health financing. In addition to reviewing the overall
health financing system, the report includes an in-depth
analysis of key bottlenecks and sustainability challenges
for immunization services as a marker for implementation
constraints in the face of rapidly reducing external financing. |
