Strategies for financing social health insurance schemes for providing universal health care: a comparative analysis of five countries.

Conclusions: The ability for Social Health Insurance programs to cover all groups has been limited in the selected countries. Hence, relying solely on social health insurance schemes to achieve Universal Health Coverage may not be plausible in Africa. Also, highly fragmented risk pools impede efforts to widen the insurance pools and promote cross-subsidies. PMID: 33472557 [PubMed - in process]
