Resumen
Descripción
The health equity and financial
protection datasheets provide a picture of equity and
financial protection in the health sectors of low-and
middle-income countries. Topics covered include:
inequalities in health outcomes, health behavior and health
care utilization; benefit incidence analysis; financial
protection; and the progressivity of health care financing.
The tables in this report show how health outcomes, risky
behaviors and health care utilization vary across asset
(wealth) quintiles and periods. The quintiles are based on
an asset index constructed using principal components
analysis. Benefit-Incidence Analysis (BIA) shows whether,
and by how much, government health expenditure
disproportionately benefits the poor. The distribution of
subsidies depends on the assumptions made to allocate
subsidies to households. Under the constant unit cost
assumption, each unit of utilization is assumed to cost the
same and is equal to total costs incurred in delivering this
type of service divided by the number of units of utilization.
