1. Buddhism for Health (BFH) is a local
non- profit, humanitarian organiza-
tion dedicated to working with
communities to enable the poor
and marginalized to integrate in
society through building social
capital. As such, BFH support com-
munities t o identify the poor and
organize fund raising activities to
which they financially contribute.
To ensure that the near poor
and informal sector can also bene-
fit from equitable access to public
health services, in June 2006,
Buddhism for Health established
a Community-Based Health Insur-
ance (CBHI) scheme. The scheme's
name was chosen to be Pagoda
Based Health Insurance (PBHI) to
exemplify its association with the
faith-based organizations concerned.
Currently 10,700 people are vol-
untarily enrolled with this PBHI.
Between 2006 and 2008 the PBHI
scheme was supported by Swiss
Red Cross. However, since 2009,
the scheme has been receiving fund-
ing from AFD through GRET/SKY.
Coverage, enrollment and premium
PBHI operates throughout
Kirivong Operational District (OD),
Takeo Province, covering three and
a half Administrative Districts. The
target population in the OD is
167,170 people (excluding the
poor). A significant number of peo-
ple live in 'enclave' areas where
transportation and communication
is not easy, especially during the
rainy season .
Roughly 80% of the Kirivong popula-
tion lives from farming (rice and
food crops). The others main catego-
ries of employment are garment
work in Phnom Penh, fishing, the
civil service, market sales, and
NGOs. Roughly 95% of the popula-
tion is Buddhist. The remaining 5%
are either Muslims or Christians.
There are more than 90 pagodas (one
pagoda for every two or three vil-
lages) and 6 mosques in the areas
covered by BFH and, as of March
2011, 2,013 families (10,765 mem-
bers) had joined the scheme. This is
equal to 6.44% of the total tar-
geted population.

Background
CBHI members from 2007 to 1st quarter 2011
PBHI has developed its membership
with an impressive growth rate (17%
in 2007; 98% in 2008; 88% in
2009; and 45% in 2010). The
drop-out rate for members was 48%
in 2007; 1.8% in 2008; 5% in 2009;
and14.6% in 2010. However, in
2011, it is expected to be higher
because some members have been
pre-identified as poor by the Min-
istry of Planning and are therefore
eligible to receive access to public
health care services free of charge
through a Health Equity Fund (HEF).

3. Key challenges faced during the opera-
tion of the schemes include:
1. A difficult economic environ-
ment has impacted on the schemeâs
growth i.e. new registration and
premium collection from existing
members has been more difficult
and drop out remains high.
2. Unregulated private practitio-
ners (including contracted health
facilitiesâ staff members).
3. Issues related to quality of
OPD consultation at HCs that
could be influencing peopleâs trust
and the functioning of the referral
system.
4. Lack of medical doctors at the
district referral hospital
5. During the Pre-ID Poor proc-
ess of the Ministry of Planning,
many PBHI members were identi-
fied to be 'level2' poor which
means they may be eligible for
Health Equity Fund and withdrawn
as members.
6. Absence of historical prece-
dent with insurance
7. High expectations of insured
members.
Future plans include:
1. Strengthen premium collection
system, IT system and IAâs per-
formance related pay.
2. Strengthen the functioning of
the social marketing system in
order to attract more voluntary
members and obtain economies of
scale.
3. Improve transportation mecha-
nisms for referral cases from
remote/ flood-prone areas.
4. Reconsider the current provider
payment mechanism.
5. Pilot integration of CBHI &
HEF in Kirivong .

Village meeting in Kbal Dromey
village, Kork Pich HC
Mrs. Vong Chanthrea is 26
years old and lives with 4
members of her family in
Prasat village, Kam Peng
Commune, Kirivong district,
Takeo province. Her family
has been enrolled in the
PBHI scheme since 2008.
BFH staff interviewed her in
April 2011 at her house and
she told them that: "Before
my family wasn't a member of
health insurance, a majority of
our family income from rice
planting was spent on health-
care. From 2008 until now, we
have had many problems with
illness. For instance, in 2008,
my baby was self-aborted and
couldn't be helped by the
health center midwives, and I
was referred to Kirivong Refer-
ral Hospital and saved by the
hospital doctors.
In 2009, I was facing another
complicated delivery but this
time I could not even be
helped by the district hospital,
and I was then referred to
Takeo Provincial Hospital for
surgery. Again, I myself was
saved but my child could not
be helped.
One November 2, 2010, I
again came to Kam Peng HC
for the birth of my daughter.
But after delivery, I was feeling
weak because of a lot of bleed-
Ing and was immediately re-
ferred by an ambulance to
Kirivong Referral Hospital. This
time, I and my daughter were
safe. We thanked the doctors
who saved us a lot.
My family has faced many
catastrophic illnesses as men-
tioned above. However, we
didn't need to pay much or sell
our assets for these catastro-
phes because our family is a
BFH member. All expenses
related my treatments including
costs of many minor healthcare
expenses at HC for my family's
members during these three
years have been covered by the
related to my treatments including
costs of many minor healthcare ex-
penses at HC for my family members
during these three years have been
covered by the health insurance. Right
now, I and all my family members are
in good health. We always seek
healthcare on time, and we wonât let
our health fall into a serious state as
before. This has helped our living
conditions we had to become much
better than before health insurance".
