Ensuring equity in healthcare is a primary concern of health policymakers to establish a sustainable health system. This concern is particularly prominent in developing countries due to limited resources. This book offers a comprehensive analysis and discussion on the distributive pattern of out-of-pocket pharmaceutical expenditures under Turkey's health reforms, comparing them with emerging countries.
Turkey's health reforms, initiated in 2003, aimed to address financial protection shortcomings and improve health outcomes and healthcare services quality. The primary motivation was to ensure equitable distribution of health resources, leading to significant changes in resource utilization and health financing. However, there is limited knowledge about the long-term effects of these reforms on the distribution patterns of health expenditures and health service use.
This book provides a thorough equity analysis of the health financing system, examining the long-term effects of health system regulations on households' health spending characteristics. It enhances the understanding of equity in this context and includes extensive international comparisons of healthcare services across developing countries. The author explores existing evidence, future research directions, and provides policy and planning advice for health policymakers to contribute to establishing a more equal health system design. Additionally, the book will be valuable for researchers, students, and policymakers interested in healthcare systems, equity, and development.
