pre-defined event occurs.A(full or partial)substitute for direct payment for services by the consumer of the services.8The Role of Health InsuranceIn8The Rationale for InsuranceReduce risk to individuals by pooling risk across a group.Increase the predictability of unexpected losses.Redistribute the costs of unexpected losses(improve equity).9The Rationale for InsuranceRed910Individual

mandatory insurance-actuarially fare premiums.Market imperfections:-Adverse selection-Moral hazardRelationship to public funding:-Supplementary rather than competitive23Voluntary InsuranceDifferent23Community-based InsuranceRisk-sharing scheme for health care expenditures that is owned and managed at the community level.Usually focuses on primary care,but may include referral services.Often has a broader community development focus.Other types of voluntary risk-sharing schemes:health facility,cooperative,NGO.24Community-based InsuranceRisk-24Types of Risk-Sharing SchemesType 1High-cost,low frequency eventsTend to be hospital-ownedTend to cover whole districtUse actuarial basis or variable costs to calculate premiumCommitted to meeting certain designated costs.Type 2Low-cost,high frequency eventsTend to be community ownedTend to be based at the village levelPremium set mainly according to ability to payCommitted only to raising extra revenue for services.25Source:Creese and Bennett 1997Types of Risk-Sharing SchemesT2526Out-of-Pocket Payments(User Fees)May provide supplemental resources and utilization incentivesNot adequate as main source of financing because:-Does not generate sufficient resources-Does not pool risks-Inequitable26Out-of-Pocket Payments(Use26User Fees in Public FacilitiesGoals:Revenue generationStrengthen the role of markets-quality-based competition-introduce price signals-greater efficiency-incentives to increase supply of services(access)Reduce excess utilization(moral hazard)Improve sustainability(affordable)Reinforce decentralizationPrivate sector development27User Fees in Public Facilities27Possible Negative Affects of User FeesMay reduce utilization of necessary services.May reduce utilization disproportionately among the poor.Administrative costs are high.May add to“under-the-table”payments.28Possible Negative Affects of U28Performance of User FeesPeople are willing to pay for some quality improvement,particularly drugs(Cameroon,Ghana,Nigeria,Kenya,the Philippines).Utilization may decrease(Zaire),increase if quality (pre-natal care in Niger),or shift to private sector(Indonesia,Lesotho)Impact on health outcomes(Indonesia-in duration of illness,infectious disease symptoms,physical function age 50)29Performance of User FeesPeople29Performance of User Fees,cont.Cost of collecting fees may be higher than revenue generated.Evidence that quality or access to services has improved?Interpretation of performance often ideologically based.30Performance of User Fees,cont30Issues with User FeesHow to set prices:-relate to costs(cross-subsidization of services)-relate to demand(willingness vs.ability to pay;elasticity;role of quality)Exemption policies(protect the poor).Efficient administration and fee collection.Do revenues stay in the facility,the health sector?31Issues with User FeesHow to se3132Topic 3Options for allocating resources in
