This report determines the cost of selected clinical services provided at the primary care level across six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE). The cost of a selection of public sector primary level clinical outpatient services was estimated in each country based on costs of the health workforce as well as drugs and supplies to further promote preventative and close-to-client services in the region, giving a snapshot of PHC across the region and providing recommendations to improve future resource allocations for public PHC to better meet evolving population health needs.
