Quality of first antenatal care visits and perinatal outcomes
Antenatal care (ANC) is crucial for maternal and newborn health. Although ANC coverage has improved globally, ANC quality remains suboptimal. This study assessed the quality of first ANC visits and their association with perinatal outcomes. We used data from the eCohort study that collected longitudinal data on ANC utilization and quality until the end of pregnancy in Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, and India. Perinatal outcomes of interest includ…
The maternal and newborn health eCohort to track longitudinal care quality
The MNH eCohort was developed to fill gaps in maternal and newborn health (MNH) care quality measurement. In this paper, we describe the survey development process, recruitment strategy, data collection procedures, survey content and plans for analysis of the data generated by the study. We also compare the survey content to that of existing multi-country tools on MNH care quality. The eCohort is a longitudinal mixed-mode (in-person and phone) su…
On the functioning of community-based health insurance schemes in rural Ethiopia
Awareness, Willingness to Join, and Affordability of Social Health Insurance among Public Employees in Arba Minch Town, South Ethiopia
Background. As part of the efforts being made to achieve universal health coverage, Ethiopia plans to introduce a social health insurance scheme for the formal sector. Although the contribution will be collected as 3% of an employee’s gross salary from both the employee and employer, there is a concern that the premium may not be affordable for the majority of civil servants and that there could be limited interest in joining the scheme. As a res…
Covid-19 and resilience of healthcare systems in ten countries
Declines in health service use during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic could have important effects on population health. In this study, we used an interrupted time series design to assess the immediate effect of the pandemic on 31 health services in two low-income (Ethiopia and Haiti), six middle-income (Ghana, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Mexico, Nepal, South Africa and Thailand) and high-income (Chile and South Korea) coun…
Factors influencing place of delivery in Ethiopia
Introduction Maternal mortality remains high, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Institutional delivery is one of the key intervention to reduce it. Despite service utilization reflects an interplay of demand- and supply-side factors, previous studies mainly focused on either sides due to methodological challenges and data availability. But, a more comprehensive understanding can be obtained by assessing both sides. The aim of this study is to ass…
Effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on health service utilization across regions of Ethiopia
The spread of COVID-19 and associated deaths have remained low in Ethiopia. However, the pandemic could pose a public health crisis indirectly through disruptions in essential health services. The aim of this study was to examine disruptions in health service utilization during the first nine months of the COVID-19 pandemic across 10 regions in Ethiopia. We analyzed utilization of 21 different health services across all of Ethiopia (except the Ti…
Containing the spread of Covid-19 in Ethiopia
Ethiopia has a low although rising number of confirmed COVID-19 cases. Despite these low figures, \nstringent measures have been implemented since mid-March. In this viewpoint we describe \nthe prevention and preparation measures taken in Ethiopia and comment on the consequences, \nchallenges and strengths of the measures, keeping in mind the Ethiopian context
The Effect of Ethiopia’s Community-Based Health Insurance Scheme on Revenues and Quality of Care
Ethiopia's Community-Based Health Insurance (CBHI) scheme was established with the objectives of enhancing access to health care, reducing out-of-pocket expenditure (OOP), mobilizing financial resources and enhancing the quality of health care. Previous analyses have shown that the scheme has enhanced health care access and led to reductions in OOP. This paper examines the impact of the scheme on health facility revenues and quality of care. This…
The impact of the Ethiopian health extension program and health development army on maternal mortality
The impact of Ethiopia's pilot community based health insurance scheme on healthcare utilization and cost of care
Uptake of health insurance and the productive safety net program in rural Ethiopia
Enrollment in Ethiopia’s Community-Based Health Insurance Scheme
Dropping out of Ethiopia’s community-based health insurance scheme
Low contract renewal rates have been identified as one of the challenges facing the development of community-based health insurance (CBHI) schemes. This article uses longitudinal household survey data gathered in 2012 and 2013 to examine dropout in the case of Ethiopia's pilot CBHI scheme. We treat dropout as a function of scheme affordability, health status, scheme understanding and quality of care. The scheme saw enrolment increase from 41% 1 y…
Coping with shocks in rural Ethiopia
Using survey data and event history interviews undertaken in Ethiopia, we investigate which shocks trigger which coping responses and why. Relatively covariate natural and economic shocks trigger reductions in savings and in food consumption, while relatively idiosyncratic health shocks prompt reductions in savings and a reliance on borrowing. Surprisingly, across all shocks, households do not rely on gifts from family and friends, highlighting t…
