Book Description
The UHC Partnership (UHC-P) is a collaborative agreement between WHO, several donors (namely: the EU, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Irish Aid, the Government of Japan, the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Germany, Canada, Belgium and the UK Department for International Development) and a number of partner countries (currently, 125 partner countries across all six WHO regions) to support policy dialogue on national health policies, strategies, and plans (NHPSPs) and UHC -and it is part of the WHO Special Programme on Primary Health Care (SP-PHC). Its overall objective being to improve health sector results in concerned countries, it aims at building country capacities (and strengthening country processes) for the development, negotiation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of robust and comprehensive NHPSPs with a view on promoting UHC; health in all policies; and people-centered primary care -as indeed, investments in quality primary health care (PHC) will be the cornerstone for achieving UHC around the world. The purpose of this publication is to document accomplishments of the UHC-P in 2022 for the 125 partner countries. The annual UHC-P report serves as a single report to all nine donors supporting the Partnership. It will provide a synthesis of activities and results achieved in all the participating countries; present a range of country examples related to the major areas of work; and also elaborate on how the UHC-P achieved sustainable buy-in of partners and stakeholders at the country level in the different countries concerned.

Book Description
This overview of health financing tools, policies and trends--with a particular focus on challenges facing developing countries--provides the basis for effective policy-making. Analyzing the current global environment, the book discusses health financing goals in the context of both the underlying health, demographic, social, economic, political and demographic analytics as well as the institutional realities faced by developing countries, and assesses policy options in the context of global evidence, the international aid architecture, cross-sectoral interactions, and countries' macroeconomic frameworks and overall development plans.

Book Description
As a low-income country, Ethiopia has made impressive progress in improving health outcomes. This report examines how Ethiopia s Health Extension Program (HEP) has contributed to the country s move toward Univeral Health Coverage (UHC), and to shed light on how other countries may learn from Ethiopia s experiences of HEP when designing their own path to UHC. HEP is one of the government s UHC strategies introduced in a context of limited resources and low coverage of essential health services. The key aspects of the program include the capacity building and mobilization of more than 30, 000 Health Extension Workers (HEWs) targeting more than 12 million model families, and the mobilization of health development army ? to support the community-based health system. Using the HEP-UHC conceptual model and data from Demographic and Health Surveys, the study examines how the HEP has contributed to the country s move toward UHC. During the period that the HEP has been implemented, the country has experienced significant improvements in many dimensions: in terms of socioeconomic, psychological, behavioral, and biological dimensions of the beneficiaries; and in terms of the coverage of health care services. The study finds an accelerated rate of improvements among the rural, less-educated, and the poor population, which is leading to an overall reduction in equity gaps and improvements in the equity indicators including the concentration indices - that suggest a more equitable distribution of resources and health outcomes. The HEP in Ethiopia has demonstrated that an institutionalized community approach is effective in helping a country make progress toward UHC. The elements of success in the HEP include the emphasis on community mobilization which identifies community priorities, engages and empowers community members, and supports their ability to solve local problems. The other aspect of HEP is the emphasis on institutionalization of the activities, which addresses the sustainability of community programs through high level of political commitment, and effective coordination of national policies and leveraging of support from partners. These findings may offer useful lessons for other low income countries facing similar challenges in developing and implementing a sustainable UHC strategy.

Book Description
This document outlines the background to and design of the Health Financing Progress Matrix (HFPM), WHO’s standardized qualitative approach to assessing country health financing systems. Primarily qualitative in nature, but drawing on extensive quantitative indicators, the HFPM assesses a country’s health financing institutions, processes, policies and their implementation, against good practice in the context of universal health coverage (UHC). Benchmarks are defined in terms of nineteen desirable attributes, which crystallize evidence about what works in health financing in order to make progress to UHC. The paper also details a number of processes which govern the implementation of the HFPM in countries, to ensure the results are objective and credible. While health financing is only one of the core functions of a health system, it significantly influences both the extent to which the population can access health services, as well as the extent to which they face financial hardship in the process. Through a forward-looking design, the HFPM not only assesses the current situation in a country, but also makes clear recommendations of priority directions for policy and implementation, both accelerating progress towards UHC, and helping to build resilience across the health systems.

Book Description
Between 2011 and 2019, WHO has developed and issued evidence-based policy recommendations on the treatment and care of patients with DR-TB. These policy recommendations have been presented in several WHO documents and their associated annexes, including the WHO Consolidated Guidelines on Drug Resistant Tuberculosis Treatment, issued by WHO in March 2019. The policy recommendations in each of these guidelines have been developed by WHO-convened Guideline Development Groups, using the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation) approach to summarize the evidence, and formulate policy recommendations and accompanying remarks. The present WHO Consolidated Guidelines on Tuberculosis, Module 4: Treatment - Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Treatment includes a comprehensive set of WHO recommendations for the treatment and care of DR-TB. The document includes two new recommendations, one on the composition of shorter regimens and one on the use of the BPaL regimen (i.e. bedaquiline, pretomanid and linezolid). In addition, the consolidated guidelines include existing recommendations on treatment regimens for isoniazid-resistant TB and MDR/RR-TB, including longer regimens, culture monitoring of patients on treatment, the timing of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in MDR/RR-TB patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the use of surgery for patients receiving MDR-TB treatment, and optimal models of patient support and care. The guidelines are to be used primarily in national TB programmes, or their equivalents in Ministries of Health, and for other policy-makers and technical organizations working on TB and infectious diseases in public and private sectors and in the community.

Book Description
Social justice is a matter of life and death. It affects the way people live, their consequent chance of illness, and their risk of premature death. We watch in wonder as life expectancy and good health continue to increase in parts of the world and in alarm as they fail to improve in others.

Book Description
This document provides detailed advice in support of implementation of version 2.0 of the Health Financing Progress Matrix (HFPM) released in December 2020, detailed in Assessing country health financing systems: the health financing progress matrix. Geneva: World Health Organization; 2020. The HFPM is WHO’s standardized qualitative approach to assessing country health financing systems, and comprises two stages. Stage 1 provides a descriptive landscape of the different coverage schemes and programmes in the health system, including how the health budget is organized. Stage 2 comprises thirty-three questions which look in detail at the way health financing institutions and policies are organized, and how they are implemented. For each question the guide discusses why it is important to ask, and what progress looks like, together with country illustrations. Thoughts on information sources and quantitative indicators which can support the assessment are also provided.
