Date Published: 2023-07-26

Abstract:
Healthcare financing is the generation, allocation, and use of financial resources in the health system. It includes the mechanisms used to mobilise resources, which include general revenue, social and private health insurance, and out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures. They can also be mandatory or voluntary. Mandatory schemes are usually national, in which there is a legal obligation for people to pay into them, and are based on the principle of social solidarity. Social health insurance (SHI) is a form of healthcare financing and management based on risk pooling to protect people from catastrophic healthcare costs.
