BACKGROUND: Countries around the world worry about the financial sustainability of their health systems as populations age; however, few have considered the consequences of future gaps in health financing on the risk of financial hardship due to out-of-pocket payments. If countries are unable to raise sufficient revenues to meet health needs, people will pay more out-of-pocket to use health services and risk experiencing catastrophic or impoveris…
Evaluation of the implementation experiences of the Hungarian integrated care coordination pilot
Assessing the equity and coverage policy sensitivity of financial protection indicators in Europe
Progress towards universal health coverage is monitored by the incidence of catastrophic spending. Two catastrophic spending indicators are commonly used in Europe: Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 3.8.2 and the WHO Regional Office for Europe (WHO/Europe) indicator.

Country experience indicates, however, that efficiency gains do not automatically translate into greater budget for health, to additional revenues for the sector. This article proposes a framework to assess whether and …
