The study examined how macroeconomic factors such as GDP per capita, corruption, unemployment, fiscal deficit, and tax revenue influence public health expenditure in Kenya from 1990 to 2023. Using the ARDL model, results showed that corruption, GDP per capita, tax revenue, and unemployment significantly affected health spending, while fiscal deficit was insignificant. The study recommends stronger anticorruption measures, fiscal discipline, higher economic productivity, efficient tax policies, and job creation to ensure sustainable public health financing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
