Building health system resilience in financing

Riya D. Doshi and Jonathan Cylus

Chapter 10 in Handbook of Health System Resilience, 2024, pp 144-155 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Shocks to healthcare systems have the potential to disrupt financing in each aspect of a financing scheme: revenue raising, pooling, purchasing, and governance of financing. Each of these disruptions, in turn, can impede a health system’s ability to continue delivering care due to a lack of funding. The COVID-19 pandemic provides a recent example of a shock that caused global financing disruptions, requiring nations to employ various strategies to maintain their health systems’ function in the face of a public health emergency. The examples discussed in this chapter highlight the importance of implementing such measures in anticipation of a shock and maintaining payments to health care professionals.
