To define harmonised boundaries of
health care for tracking expenditure on
consumption

and Public
Health
Long-term

Outpatient

Inpatient care
To provide a framework of
the main aggregates
relevant to international

expenditures and health
systems analysis
Administration
To provide a tool,
expandable by individual
countries, which can
produce useful data in the
monitoring and analysis of
the health system

TONY BLAIR: ...then at the end of that five
years we will be in a position where our
Health Service spending comes up to
the average of the European Union, it’s
too low at the moment so we’ll bring it up to
there.
DAVID FROST: Bring it up to there by when?
TONY BLAIR: At the end of that five year
period, in other words if…
DAVID FROST: Five years from today not five
years from the next election, five years
from…
TONY BLAIR: No five years from the end of
this financial year,...
Simple comparisons of aggregates
used for benchmarking!

Comparison of per capita health expenditure estimated using general price levels
and health-specific price levels (United States=1), 2011
OECD analysis on
comparative price levels in
health suggests prices rather
than volumes contribute to
high US spending.
because of…
Intense use of health-related
technologies, low productivity,
decentralised price
negotiations, fragmentation in
the insurance market, high
level of provider concentration
and weak price control

Basic structuralrelationships
of health financing
Moneyflow
• refined framework to
mirror the evolution in
financing and align with
the financing functions
of collection, pooling and
purchasing
• Financing schemes and
related financing agents
• The basic flows: (i)
revenue-raising and (ii)
allocation of resources
19. Health Care Financing: Main Questions SHA
2011 can help to answer
• How is financing in a country’s health care sector structured and
how is it managed?
• How does a particular health financing scheme collect its revenues?
• What is the extent of external funding?
• Where does the money go?
• How are the particular health care services or goods financed?
• What share of the spending on inpatient care is covered by out-of-
pocket (OOP) payments?
• How are the resources of the different financing schemes allocated
among the different groups of beneficiaries, such as by disease?
20. Revised classification of schemes and a
focus on revenues
Classification of financing schemes (HF)
HF.1
Government schemes and compul.
contrib. health care financing schemes
HF.1.1 Government schemes
HF.1.2
Compul. contrib. health insurance
schemes
HF.1.2.1 Social health insurance
HF.1.2.2 Compulsory private insurance
HF.2 Voluntary health care payment schemes
HF.2.1 Voluntary health insurance schemes
HF.2.2 NPISH financing schemes
HF.2.3 Enterprise financing schemes
HF.3 Household out-of-pocket payment
HF.4 Rest of the world financing schemes
Classification of revenues of financing
schemes (FS)
FS.1 Transfers from government domestic revenue
FS.1.2 … on behalf of specific groups
FS.1.3 Subsidies
FS.2
Transfers distributed by government from
foreign origin
FS.3 Social insurance contributions
FS.3.1 ... from employees
FS.3.2 ...from employers
FS.3.3 ...from self-employed
FS.4 Compulsory prepayment (other than FS.3)
FS.5 Voluntary prepayment
FS.6 Other domestic revenues n.e.c.
FS.7 Direct foreign transfers
22. Tracking revenues: Policy relevance

Other Soc. Ins. Contributions Govt. Transfers
•Track diversification of revenue
sources for health financing e.g.
away from payroll-based
contributions in the face of
changing demographics
•Refine definitions and
improve overall country
coverage to feed work on fiscal
sustainability and expenditure
forecasting
•Measure the full burden of
government spending on health
taking into account subsidies
and transfers to other financing
schemes

23. NHA can help assessing health system
performance
• Transparency and accountability - Where does the money come
from, who manages it and what is it used for ?
• Financial risk protection – levels of out-of-pocket spending /pre-
payments
• Accessibility and equity – by beneficiary characteristics with
other non-expenditure data (e.g. Utilisation)
• Efficiency – by function with data on activities, outcomes.
But:
• NHA not an end in itself but should follow country priorities
• Insufficient on their own to assess programme interventions
• Cannot answer questions it is not designed to accommodate
Problems with budget process, formulation, execution?
other instruments: PER, PETS
24. What information can health accounts provide?
• Internationally comparable data on the overall level and growth and
composition of spending on health care
– International benchmarking
– Compare and relate spending with priorities
• Deeper analytic possibilities of
– how services are financed and provided
– Factors that drive growth in health spending
– Financial sustainability (for schemes & health system)
– tracking of domestic and external sources of financing
– Evaluation of reforms and impact of governance changes
– Achievement of Universal Health Coverage on regional level
• SHA 2011 is intended as a reference guide and a flexible toolkit
priorities and policy uses can differ and should be up to countries
