Chapter 1 in Health Microinsurance:Implementing Universal Health Coverage in the Informal Sector, 2020, pp 3-16 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: Catalyzing the demand has been a constant concern in the microinsurance space wherever enrollment has been voluntary and contributory. Here we learn about three significant effects of implementing health microinsurance (shifting from dormant demand to solvent demand; creating the framework at the community level for financial inclusion through insurance education, and establishing the financial institution at the community level that enables reshaping the mindset from dependent to dependable) that lie at the core of the implementation process.
