Health Sector Governance Program (Subprograms 1 and 2)

Better data and information. A better use of more accurate data for planning and budgeting by newly trained personnel at the central, provincial, and district levels could have significantly improved allocative efficiency in the health sector, enabling better targeted policies and activities in operational and development plans. Better information on revenue sources and resource use at all levels, including in the facilities, and the regular publishing of national health accounts that incorporate domestic and external funding could facilitate dialogue between the MOH and MOF, and expedite the government’s approval of increasing the health budget.
