Benefit equity of social health insurance in China and its provinces (2014–2020)
INTRODUCTION: China has increased fiscal input into social health insurance (SHI) schemes to achieve universal health coverage. Our study aimed to examine the equity of SHI benefits in the country and five representative provinces over the period of 2014-2020. METHODS: We analysed nationally and subnationally representative data from four waves (2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020) of the China Family Panel Studies. Benefit relative to consumption was asse…

How antibiotics are used in pig farming
Background: Rising global concern about antimicrobial resistance has drawn attention to the use of antibiotics in livestock. Understanding the current usage of antibiotics in these animals is essential for effective interventions on the optimisation of antibiotic use. However, to date few studies have been conducted in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to explore the use of antibiotics and estimate the total amount of antibiotics…
Effectiveness of primary care gatekeeping
INTRODUCTION: This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a gatekeeping pilot in shifting resources and patient visits from hospitals to primary care facilities under the Chinese New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme. METHODS: We applied a difference-in-differences regression analysis using claims data from a pilot district in northern China. The study covered 200 685 enrollees in 17 townships in 2012 and followed-up the townships over 12 year-quart…
What can we learn from China’s health system reform?
Qingyue Meng and colleagues assess what China’s health system reform has achieved and what needs to be done over the next decade
Assessment of the public-private-partnerships model of a national health insurance scheme in India
A single hospital admission can deplete household resources so considerably as to induce impoverishment, especially in the Indian context of low government healthcare expenditure. Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) was a national health insurance scheme for below-poverty-line Indian families, to provide improved access to hospitalization and greater financial protection via a public-private-partnership employing private sector implementation c…

Development, Validity, and Reliability of the Women’s Capabilities Index
We report the results of a series of validity and reliability tests performed during the development of the Women's Capabilities Index (WCI) in Malawi. The WCI is a multidimensional measure based on Sen's capability framework for assessing women's quality of life. Construct validity was assessed by investigating the expected relationships of the dimensions with key socioeconomic characteristics. The majority of hypothesized associations were foun…
Financial incentives in health
This paper studies the health effects of one of the world's largest demand-side financial incentive programmes--India's Janani Suraksha Yojana. Our difference-in-difference estimates exploit heterogeneity in the implementation of the financial incentive programme across districts. We find that cash incentives to women were associated with increased uptake of maternity services but there is no strong evidence that the JSY was associated with a red…
Health Care Systems in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

Affordability, availability and acceptability barriers to health care for the chronically ill
BACKGROUND: There is an increasing burden of chronic illness in low and middle income countries, driven by TB/HIV, as well as non-communicable diseases. Few health systems are organized to meet the needs of chronically ill patients, and patients' perspectives on the difficulties of accessing care need to be better understood, particularly in poor resourced settings, to achieve this end. This paper describes the experience of poor households attem…

Value for money in the health sector
Since the Alma-Ata Declaration in 1978, primary health care (PHC) has been seen in most countries as a vital part of any strategy to improve the health of the population. Economic evaluations of PHC delivery and PHC activities are therefore needed to assist in decision-making on resource use in the health sector. A report was prepared on such economic evaluations in the Commonwealth and this paper summarizes those findings which relate to develop…
