The ambitious development agenda of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires substantial investments across several sectors, including for SDG 3 (healthy lives and wellbeing). No estimates additional resources needed to strengthen comprehensive health service delivery towards attainment universal coverage in low-income middle-income countries have been published.
Policy makers require information on costs related to inpatient and outpatient health services inform resource allocation decisions.Country data sets were gathered in 2008-2010 through literature reviews, website searches a public call for cost data. Multivariate regression analysis was used explore the determinants of variability unit using from 30 countries. Two models designed, with drawing upon 3407 9028 observations respectively. Cost estimates are produced at country regional level,...
Primary health care (PHC) is a driving force for advancing towards universal coverage (UHC). PHC-oriented systems bring enormous benefits but require substantial financial investments. Here, we aim to present measures PHC investments and project the associated resource needs. This modelling study analysed data from 67 low-income middle-income countries (LMICs). Recognising variation in services among countries, propose three PHC, with different scope included interventions system...
BackgroundThe World Health Assembly calls for elimination of viral hepatitis as a public health threat by 2030 (ie, −90% incidence and −65% mortality). However, WHO's 2017 cost projections to achieve health-related Sustainable Development Goals did not include the resources needed testing treatment. We aimed estimate incremental commodity adding scaled up interventions treatment investment scenarios.MethodsWe added modelled costs implementing WHO recommended projections. quantified...
To make progress toward universal health coverage, countries should define the type and mix of services that respond to their populations' needs. Ethiopia revised its essential package (EHSP) in 2019. This paper describes process, methodology key features new EHSP. A total 35 consultative workshops were convened with experts public scope revision, develop a list interventions, agree on prioritization criteria, gather evidence compare interventions. Seven criteria employed: disease burden,...
Estimating health care costs, either in the context of understanding resource utilization implementation a plan, or economic evaluation, has become common activity planners, technology assessment agencies and academic groups. However, data sources for costs outside direct service delivery are often scarce. WHO-CHOICE produces global price databases guidance on quantity assumptions to support country level costing exercises. This paper presents updates methodology programme costs.We collated...
Information on cost-effectiveness allows policy-makers to evaluate if they are using currently available resources effectively and efficiently. Our objective is examine the of health interventions improve maternal, newborn child (MNCH) outcomes, provide global evidence relative context two geographic regions.We consider across life course from adolescence pregnancy for children up 5 years old. Interventions included those that fall within areas immunization, healthcare, nutrition,...
To estimate the additional resources required to scale up interventions reduce child mortality and morbidity within context of fourth Millennium Development Goals aim among children aged<5 years by two-thirds 2015.A costing model was developed financial needed in 75 countries priority that address major causes aged < 5 years, including malnutrition, pneumonia, diarrhoea, malaria key newborn death such as sepsis. Calculations were made using bottom-up ingredients-based approaches; this...
In order to achieve Millennium Development Goals 4, 5 and 6, it is essential address adolescents' health.To estimate the additional resources required scale up adolescent friendly health service interventions with objective reduce mortality morbidity among individuals aged 10 19 years in 74 low- middle- income countries.A costing model was developed financial needed scale-up delivery of a set including contraception, maternity care, management sexually transmitted infections, HIV testing...
BackgroundNational dietary surveys provide essential data for risk benefit assessments of foods and nutrients, management policy development. Physical activity measurement biomonitoring can important complementary data, but are less commonly included.ObjectiveTo describe the study design methods cross-sectional Swedish national survey Riksmaten Young Children (Riksmaten småbarn), children aged 9 months, 18 months 4 years. Participation/drop-out rates two older age groups also presented. The...
Testing and treatment for hepatitis B virus (HBV) C (HCV) infection are highly effective, high-impact interventions. This article aims to estimate the cost-effectiveness of scaling up these interventions by scenarios, regions, income groups.We modeled costs impacts elimination in 67 low- middle-income countries from 2016 2030. Costs included testing commodities, healthcare consultations, future savings cirrhosis hepatocellular carcinomas averted. We disease progression disability-adjusted...
Estimating the required resources for implementing an essential health services package (EHSP) is vital to examine its feasibility and affordability. This study aimed estimate financial implement Ethiopian EHSP from 2020 2030. Furthermore, we explored potential alternatives increase fiscal space in Ethiopia. We used OneHealth Tool (OHT) costs of expanding service provision public sector Combinations ingredient-based bottom-up program-based summary costing approaches were applied. predicted...
