THE is 3.7% of GDP but public spending is only 1.4% of GDP
Health Care Financing Features
We have a HCF system as part of the national financial management
system.
Main Features
❶ Share in the national budget --- 4.27% (2013-14)1
❷ Public spending as % of GDP --- around 1.4%1
❸ Per capita Health expenditure---US$ 27 (2011)1
❹ Out-of-pocket---64% of Total health expenditure(THE)2
❺ Coverage of insurance --- <1% of THE2
❻ Government is financer and provider of services
❼ Budget norms follow civil service and budgetary regulations and codes.

Total Health Expenditure
is increasing over time, it has increased from 48,000 million taka in 1996 to 300,000
million taka in 2011 (almost 6 times in 15 years)

% increase in National and
Health Budget - a comparison
Challenges in Bangladesh
❶ Inadequate
funding for the whole health system.
-Government budget is 1.4% of GDP, Total Health Expenditure
(THE) is 3.7% of GDP.
❷ Inequity
in financing and utilization
-main source of financing for health care is out-of-pocket
payment (64% of THE)
❸ Inefficient
use of resources
-due to absence of proper resource allocation formula, shortage
of health workers, vacant posts (44%) in public health facilities,
lack of provider autonomy, no purchaser-provider split,
duplication of programs and insufficient coordination leading to
wastage
Common concerns across the globe
❶
Increasing health care cost
❷
Protect people from financial consequences of health care
payment
❸
Expand fiscal space in spite of macro-economic constraints
❹
Use of available resources efficiently and equitably
For all these, Health care financing is moving towards
Universal Health Coverage (UHC)
14
What’s next?
Universal Health Coverage
Ensuring that all people can use the promotive, preventive, curative and
rehabilitative health services they need, of sufficient quality to be effective,
while also ensuring that the use of these services does not expose the user to
financial hardship (WHO)

Moving towards the UHC Goal…
❶ UHC
is a continuous journey
single model of universal coverage – successful programs
vary and the starting point is the country context
❷ No
❸ But
relevant to all (rich and poor) countries, because all want to
 Reduce the gap between need and utilization
 Improve quality
 Improve financial protection

Bangladesh Steps toward UHC…
❶
Renewed Commitment through Health Policy 2011
❷
Revitalized and established nearly 13000 community clinics and
improved hospital services
❸
Increased health manpower for hospitals and health centres to
provide health care services
❹
Increased efficiencies in procurement, distribution and utilization
of essential medicines and equipment
❺
Expanded demand side financing for ante-natal care and
deliveries attended by skilled birth attendants
