| Summary: | This report identifies critical
opportunities and constraints faced by Solomon Islands
health system as it makes progress towards Universal Health
Coverage. Protecting the achievements that have been made
over recent years, while continuing to improve a broader
range of health outcomes, requires effective management of
changes in financial and other institutional arrangements in
the health sector. Solomon Islands has made some impressive
gains in health outcomes over the last two decades.
Continued improvements will require more effective
governance to manage finite resources at all health service
levels. Now more than ever, with decreasing real per capita
health expenditure, greater focus is needed on spending
health dollars better. More efficiency. More quality of
service delivery. More targeted interventions for vulnerable
groups to improve equity. |
