USAID’s Global Health Bureau launched the Health Finance and Governance (HFG) Project to support countries in their quest for stronger health systems.
"A working health system delivers the quality health care people need, when they need it, where they need it, and at prices they can afford."
In particular, HFG partners with countries and health sector stakeholders to:
Improve financing by mobilizing domestic resources, reducing financial barriers, expanding health insurance, and implementing provider payment systems;
Strengthen governance for better health system management and greater accountability and transparency;
Improve country-owned health management and operations systems to improve the delivery and effectiveness of health care, for example, through mobile money and public financial management; and
Advance techniques to measure progress in health systems performance, especially around universal health coverage.
The HFG Project works in the following regions:
Africa
Angola | Benin | Burundi | Côte d’Ivoire | Ethiopia | Ghana | Lesotho | Namibia | Nigeria | Swaziland | Tanzania
Asia
Bangladesh | India
