The Healthcare Financing and Health Outcomes in Zambia
Abstract
This chapter aims to find out the sources of healthcare financing in Zambia to provide health facilities for protecting the people's right to receive healthcare and to know the health outcomes. The study revealed that significant progress is made in addressing the MDGs of health. But the achievement is less than the targets. The total health expenditure and the per capita health expenditure is less than other middle-income countries and the global average. The percent of government expenditure on healthcare to total government expenditure is also less than the target. The donor financing and out-of-pocket health expenditure are higher than the limit suggested by WHO. The private medical insurance and social insurance schemes are still in the initial stages of development. There is regional inequality in the healthcare facilities.
