This report reviews performance of
Uganda's health sector and assesses options for
increasing total health spending and improving efficiency of
health spending to improve health, nutrition, and population
outcomes. Although Uganda's health outcomes are
improving, the country is unlikely to achieve its national
targets for health as well as the health related Millennium
Development Goals (MDG) Uganda is faced with a high disease
burden from communicable diseases; in addition, the country
is witnessing a growing epidemic of non communicable
diseases. The main conclusion of the report is that while
Uganda needs to continue exploring ways to mobilize funding
for health it needs to improve the efficiency of its health
spending to maximize the health benefits for its population.
Uganda could reap significant savings by improving
management of human resources for health; strengthening
procurement and logistics management for medicines and
medical supplies; and by better programming of development
assistance for health. Besides, Uganda needs to take
proactive steps to mitigate growing pressure to increase
health spending. |
