This paper published in BMJ Global Health investigates the impact of devolution, health financing, and public financial management processes on universal health coverage in seven Asian and African countries: Burkina Faso, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Uganda, Indonesia, and the Philippines. It identifies key challenges, such as subnational governments’ reliance on central transfers without mandated health budget allocations, fragmentation of funding pools, weak budget planning, delayed and complex funding procedures, and inefficient service purchasing practices.<\/p>\n

The paper proposes policy solutions, including conditional grants, improved revenue sharing, enhanced budget coordination, simplified processes, and strategic purchasing linked to health needs and facility performance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
