India
India is a P4H partner country. The main focus of partnership was to support UHC in India with development partners. India supports and participates in regional health financing network events including the Joint Network of Senior Budget and Health Officials on Fiscal Sustainability of Health Systems for the Asia Region held in May 2017 and SEARO-WPRO Bi-regional Health Financing Policy Workshops held in 2016 and 2017. These regional events aimed to enhance knowledge and best practices on health financing and social protection reforms and discuss technical and policy issues and options for countries to make progress towards UHC. India welcomes P4H platform for Asian countries to facilitate policy and technical discussions on health financing and social protection reforms and best practices in the regional context and learn from each other.
