The HFPM assessment report comprehensively evaluates Kenya’s health financing system using the WHO’s HFPM framework. This assessment reviews Kenya’s progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by examining key areas of health financing, including revenue raising, pooling, purchasing, public financial management, and governance. The report highlights strengths, such as recent health financing reforms and the establishment of new health funds, but also identifies challenges, including fragmentation in funding pools, limited financial autonomy for health facilities, and reliance on external funding. The document offers targeted recommendations for policy action, emphasizing the need for better resource management, improved data systems, and enhanced financial protection mechanisms. It serves as a guide for policymakers to refine Kenya’s health financing strategies and support the country’s UHC goals.
