Update on 14 Feb 2014

The Health Economics Unit of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) in collaboration with WHO, the World Bank and GDC is preparing for

NATIONAL UHC WORKSHOP on 18 Feb 2014 and

a ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION (RTD) on 19 Feb 2014.

The new MOHFW Minister commits to supporting the goal of UHC and this national stakeholder meeting would be his first official event.  Thus, the HEU thought that this would be a good opportunity to strengthen the advocacy for UHC and support for the implementation of the HCF Strategy, especially now that they are starting the process for the legal framework.

Also, there is an identified need to have a common understanding of UHC and elevate the HCFS beyond the health sector. Only recently did national stakeholders working on the national social protection strategy know that a health financing strategy was developed. On several occasions, the HF DP group has requested the MOHFW for broad inter-sectoral dialogue on health financing issues. So in this view, this event serves as a starting point towards active engagement of national stakeholders and the establishment of an Inter-ministerial Committee on HF – a kick-off for a series of technical discussions to follow.
